Dammit
Reducing booze consumption is the one thing my doc is always telling me to do better. I continue to try to shave off drinks from the total consumption each week

Trying to keep up with all the experts will kill you faster than anything
Don't worry be happy

There's a distinct difference between "trying to keep up with all the experts" and searching for answers or better means

I agree
But I stand by my statement

My PCP is always telling me this is my low hanging fruit and I agree. It's just hard and a process.
I don't identify as an alcoholic, but I'm easily over 20 servings of alcohol per week as opposed to the 10 or fewer the "experts" want you stay under.
Typical, school night for me is 0 - 3 and Fridays and Saturdays are more like 4 to 6. It's not hard on beautiful summer day to whack down double shot marg or martini and then have 3 beers + a glass of wine for dinner. I'm never hammered and I don't feel super hungover, but it's still more consumption than is ideal.
I'm trying my best to shave off drinks and get more days in w/o booze. It's a huge performance hack for work and/or athletic endeavors.

Stress is killer, no doubt.

I should probably make it a new year's resolution to count the servings I have each day, just to get an actual true baseline. It's sooooo hard. Not drinking when golfing is basically impossible. Birdie? Shots all around! And yeah it's hard to get hammered when you weigh 200 and drink tons of water.
Usually manage to not drink on Mondays (hooray?) and sometimes Tuesdays. My weekly average has to be over 20 still.

Mrs Throbber v2.0 has indicated we will be celebrating dry January.
I believe she is talking about no drinking.

I've never enjoyed living more than when I was drinking.

I'm gonna try keeping spreadsheet. I feel that provide a little more focus.
If I could finally get to a stay of 10 or fewer per week, it would be a god damned miracle and big performance hack.
People forget that even hungover row peter puffers are capable of amazing cardiovascular feats of strength! I once got a Peloton PR at the Ritz Carlton Kapalua after like 14 pool beers and cocktails the day prior.
