Stopped drinking back in July, haven’t missed it at all since. When I feel like I want something “special” to drink, I have Kombucha with a squeeze of lime juice in a wine glass. It’s fermented, bubbly and also good for you.
Right. But you’re not drinking vanilla extract. Just saying....
Very seldom so probably .1; yesterday; 4 p.m.
Trying to be healthier this year as I turn 30 so not drinking during the week anymore. Before that, I drank every night of the week at least one or two beers. On weekends probably 6 drinks a day. I never started drinking before I was done working from home.
36 y.o. now... 2 drinks usually on Fri, sat, sun... on occasion 1 drink on Thursday.
Separately (from the booze convo), have you had any generational contentions in the workplace? In my last job people kept constantly bad mouthing “millennials” and I said something like, “I’m not sure who or what you think millennials are, but I was born in 84 and that means I’m an elder millenial. We have jobs. Kids. houses. Bills. We are not just a bunch of wimpy babies in our parents basements.” Then I left that firm and said something about being a millennial at my new firm and a 28 y/o said, “you’re not a millennial.” I was like, “ouch! You think I’m old?” I’ve never been Gen X. Those are the 80s high school grads. Some people call elder millennials X-ennials. I think that’s a reasonable term. I feel just as much stress as younger millennials regarding the economic issues we’ve had to face. I graduated law school in 2011 with the market still wrecked from the recession and now we’re in a GD pandemic and still paying student loans. GenX had it freaking easy.
MTW I don’t drink. Thursday 1; Friday and Saturday 3+; Sunday usually 1 as a calm down drink. Friday usually a co-worker and I will make a drink at 3 and get on the phone to discuss our week and plan out the next week’s work. From March until May last year I was drinking every night because the pandemic stressed me out, so I stopped all summer to give my body a break. If you’re wondering if I lost weight, I did not; one vice lead to another.
Probably 2 or 3;yesterday; 3pm on a Friday
Tbh I have 1-2 glasses of wine a night. On weekends I have one “fuller” day of drinking. Early 20s and idk how to cope with legal stress. HA
Fuller as in 4-5 drinks throughout a Saturday if I’m not working. Is this responsible? Prob not.
Quit drinking altogether. Magically lost 15lbs.
Had mostly stopped drinking pre-pandemic, but it has ticked up during COVID. Probably partly coping, but partly just easy access and no barriers (no commute/driving). Currently, I’m having 1-2 drinks maybe 4-5 nights a week. Probably going to dial that back again soon.
Less than 1 on average. I drink once every few weeks.
I drink 1-2 every 2-3 weeks, mostly at drinking oriented events. I hate the way I feel after drinking tbh
