21 drinks a week seems like a lot?
- porknubbins 7y agoYes, I can easily hit 1 maybe 2 a day without noticing but 3 is significant. For example most restaurants try to sell you two drinks per meal I’ve noticed. And I don’t drink every day, so miss a day and you have to drink 6, thats a binge/hangover for me.
- tonyarkles 7y agoIt is a lot, but also a relatively easy number for e.g. a college student to exceed. While looking back I can see it wasn’t healthy... nachos and a couple beer on Tuesday night after our long engineering lab, and 3 or 4 mini-pitchers (3oz) at the bar on Friday and Saturday night pretty quickly adds up to, say, 27 drinks in a week. I was perfectly functional (minus Saturday and Sunday mornings where I’d sleep in until 11 or noon), passed all my classes, even made the Dean’s list. Definitely not recommended, but not unheard of. I have a much healthier relationship with booze now, and I’d be broke if I drank that much of the good stuff :)
