Day 12 and asked my wife....

Me : "Hey - How many beers would you say that I would drink on average daily? Factoring in the weekends as well"?

Her : "8 or 9"

Me : "ok - so in the last 12 days I have NOT drank 96 to 108 beers"

Her : "OMG - that's alot"

This site is really helping me and Thank You everyone

When you put it that way - there is an awful lot of alcohol not been drunk around these parts.
I'd most probably add about 40 bottles of wine to the list (in 30 days)

Kind of made me laugh dragon. I was a beer guy too. I did the math for a whole year . Wow, I don't know how the brewers stay in business without me!

That's a lot of booze and $$. I don't even think about the annual or lifetime total.
Great job on 12 days.

Alcohol is expensive, isn't it? Good luck and congrats on your sobriety.

Awesome on day 12, keep it going.
I did a something like that at day 30, I counted the calories I used to drink. 1 6pack of 16oz beers 1170 cal. Add in the 4 Jim Beam shots I usally had 420 calories.
Thats a lot of calories, that gad zero nutrition, and only wrecked my brain. I'm coming up on 60 days, no wonder my work pants are so loose.
