    Most nights I have a drink. I just make it fit into my calories

    a glass of wine with dinner almost every night. I just make sure I workout enough to account for the extra calories.

    Saturday nights we usually have several drinks.

    Rest of the week I may have a glass of wine or a beer here or there with dinner, but it's pretty inconsistent.

    Stopped drinking a year ago. Went from 265 to 205 in that time. I have more energy to do more things with my kids and wife. Outings every weekend and no more slouching and sleeping on the couch. No more snoring either....

    I probably average 5-8 drinks a week, but often accompanies my biking excursions, so it doesn't tend to be too big of a net hit to my calorie goals.

    On average I think 2-4 drinks a week, but it's not consistent. Some weeks I have none, and once month or so I may have 3-5 in one night. I do log them/include in my calories....

    Probably twice a month. Once will be when I'm at a restaurant and I'll have a couple cocktails or glasses of wine, and then there's usually a day when I have some Scotch at home or beer at a party or whatever.

    I used to drink wine most nights, but it was one of the first things I stopped doing when I started losing weight, because it was more of a habit than something I really enjoyed.

    None! Six months free :) Obviously that's not for everyone but just a personal choice!

    Same, I'm almost 8yrs without alcohol.
    It appears, that there's very little in life that I do in moderation.
    Except exercise

    Me too.

    Just had to give it up for medical reasons, but I'm hoping tests come back blaming something else and not the alcohol. :P

    My goal is to be a 2-3 drinks a week person instead of a 2-3-more drinks a day person.

    I drink when I feel like having a drink. No real schedule or routine. Sometimes I'll go two weeks and not touch any alcohol, some times I'll have a couple drinks every single night of the week. Sometimes I drink liquor and mixers, sometimes it's beer, sometimes wine. I try to make sure it fits in with my calorie goal, or at least within a couple hundred, because I have a pretty low calorie goal.
