yes, i know i drink too much, but i spend many hours in a gym and my health is good. my helath check confirms this.
but....................
be honest, today we had two bottles of wine (one with the meal, the other a little later throughout the evening) a small (ish) baileys and a small (ish) islay malt whisky.
the doctor, who we know well, says that ok, due to our lifestyle, that's ok. but do we regret what we drink?
how may units a week folks, and be honest!

If you are feeling the need to ask.... Pay attention to your nagging doubts. Your choices, your life, your consequences.
But as you asked... If that is a regular daily consumption it seems excessive to me.

Damn! I actually agree with one of the alleged godlike's. So much for my rebel qualifications.
Exactly, why shouldn't you smoke? it is legal and smokers are not second class citizens. Don't understand why people think smokers should not have the same access to the NHS as others, yes it's a life style choice but so is playing rugby or squash and we don't object to them being patched up.
A lot of people do want to give up though Mids, when they do it can be very difficult and Fobs, hardly a brand new cutting edge ad is it?
I go into a lot of elderly peoples homes with my job (not in a criminal way)and so many ask me if I mind if they smoke? It's there home and how can I say I mind?
PS, I don't drink and am well known for driving very slowly, I do like a pie though, perhaps I should not eat them in public places? perhaps I should be more aware of people inhaling second hand blackberry and apple.

so do you drink too much or not at all dunno

Does your doctor friend have magic eye site that can look at the condition of your internal organs? Hope you don't jump in your car the following morning either! Neither of us drink so can't comment on how it makes you feel but looking at the list above, if you don't feel effects afterwards I would suggest it is a very dangerous amount.
Is it a habit for you? do you think that if you get to a certain time of day or after a specific task or when you are stressed you deserve a drink? If the answer is yes then you maybe on the edge of dependency.
In another thread you calculated the cost of smoking, we don't smoke either but the list above looks as if it is at least twice as expensive than a packet of fags!
So I would say the answer is yes, far too much, morbidly too much.
2 bottles of wine a baileys and a whisky between 2! try cutting down, you wont see the problems coming, they will just hit you!
My answer to anyone not just the OP.
If your comfortable with the amount your drink, then it's fine.
If you cause problems to others when you drink any amount is too much.
I had a Vodka n Coke last night, it was my second this month it may or may not be my last, it is true to say I hardly ever drink, but it is not my place to say what others drink unless it affects those around them and that includes people a 100 miles away, if my taxes are paying for the cost of policing drunks and the NHS cost of treating them then it does affect me.
But drinking that doesn't cost me money or affect others, that is your business not mine or anyone else's
