Well, like others have said, she is likely making the comments because of her own insecurities. When I first quit, and my other friends that drank noticed, they made all kinds of weird comments. Their insecurity was much more obvious. But I'm thinking your sister in law has the same problem, especially if she's drinking a six pack per night - that's not normal.
