    I don't drink at all...I don't even take it in medicine if I can help it.

    I will occasionally cook with wine but the times are few and far between.

    I've been alcohol free for just over a year now - will be 13 months on Tuesday.
    I used to drink quite a bit during university and college and finally decided to make a change. I really have no desire to ever touch alcohol again and I enjoy not having my perception altered. I don't mind my friends drinking, but I do find when they get into the booze really heavily, I end up taking off.

    Best feeling is getting a good night's sleep and waking up without a hangover! I'd rather go for a run on Saturday morning than lay around in bed all day feeling awful.
    Good fo you!

    I don't drink.
    I've never been drunk.
    Strange but true.

    I have an occasional drink purely because I like the taste of some alcohol, but I've never been drunk. Don't ever want to be drunk. Can't stand being around people who are drunk.

    I drink a glass of wine a couple times a week with dinner. But that it. I drank more in college sometimes, but I've grown past that. I don't like getting drunk AT ALL. I just like the taste of wine, really.

    Alcohol, even 1/2 a glass of wine has always made me feel really ill, so am totally teetotal and have always been, At uni I was always the one who made sure that they got everyone else home

    I've never been a big drinker, mostly because I don't like the taste unless it tastes sweet. And nowadays, I'd rather spend my calories on other things, besides of that given the amount of medication I take on a daily basis... that is all bad enough not to add alcohol to the equation.

    I've been drunk, I enjoyed being drunk... I stopped enjoying it and I quit nearly a year ago... I don't say 'I don't drink' because I would have alcohol if I wanted to but I rarely want do. I'd have champagne on special occasions for example :)

    I average one beer a day, and 2-3 on the weekends. I only drink good craft beer, none of that light crap that has fillers and fake stuff in it. I stay away from liquor and only drink dry red wine on rare occasions.

    I will say this: If I drink a beer a day it is better than someone drinking one Diet coke or regular coke a day.

    Hi, I don't drink and never have, it makes me feel very sick. I also tend to think lowly of people who can't have good, old fashioned fun, and need to make a mess of themselves... or people who are rely on it... I try not to show how judgmental I am though. Sure saves me a lot of calories!

    I do drink alcohol. I used to drink every weekend. Mainly because my hubby did. However he can't have alcohol around him. He is not someone that just has to have it in the house all the time, but he is someone that once they have one they can't stop and will pound them down until every beer is gone in the house. So if I bought a 12 pack he would have already had 9 by the time I was half way through my third. So I stopped buying beer. Plus it always made me feel dehydrated.

    He no longer drinks either because he noticed the same things that I noticed about him and alcohol.

    As far as I am concerned beer is just not something I want to waste my calories on. The last few times I bought beer I literally only drank half and then hours later finally poured the rest out.
