How often do I drink alcohol? As often as possible obviously.

Use to drink in my 20's socially. Now if I have one drink I don't sleep. Maybe one or two a year. Does this happen to anyone else?

You said something there sister.

And now the weather's getting decent, I can come out of hibernation and burn some serious calories. So I can have an extra couple of glasses on the weekend!

2 drinks a night. Usually beer or red wine in the winter and white wine in the summer.

Funny, I never ever have dessert because I'm saving the calories for wine


Me too! I think dessert is a waste of calories - rather have more wine.

DH and I are big wine lovers and collectors. Because of my tendency to gain weight quickly, I really try to only drink wine on weekends (including Sundays!), but it's usually 2-3 glasses, three to four nights per week. We belong to a couple of wine-tasting groups so sometimes we over-indulge on those nights. But as I get older, I can't handle the hangovers the next day as well as I could in my 20s and 30s!!

Two or three nights a week, two or three drinks. Woman, mid 40s.

Two glasses of wine on Fridays and probably one or two drinks another evening.

What do your liver enzymes look like?


This shouldn't be enough to affect anyone's liver enzymes.

I usually have 1 (sometimes 2) glasses of wine a night. Once a month or so if I'm out, I may have 3-4. Very, very occasionally I'll drink more than that and pay for it dearly the next morning.


Are you kidding me? Of course it is. My guess is her ALT is in the 60s.


Pfft. Just had a normal liver function test come back. I think a lot of people overestimate the resilience of the human body.



I'm in a similar boat, and I get a yearly physical. No liver problems here. In fact, I am incredibly healthy.

Depends upon my children's behavior in the evening
