    An Intervention

    Moderate drinkers 'are fooling themselves': They consume 40% more alcohol than they think | Mail Online

    OK who is a sinner and has more than a pipette of wine a year!

    A teeny weeny bit of extrapolation there

    To get a picture of drinking habits, 19 people were asked to keep a detailed drinks diary for two weeks.

    Those that took part were drinking on average the equivalent of an extra large glass of wine each day, or 40 per cent more that they thought.
    You couldn't make it up.

            My problem (ha) is not that I drink a lot, but that I too easily fall into the routine of drinking every day. Often one glass with dinner, or a whisky (but a large one I suppose) after working on plan B in the evening. 1-2 drinks on average, rarely more.

            I think this could be where the pounds are coming from...

                Many years ago some bloke with enormous pot belly came into the pub. The bloke next to me exclaimed "That gut must have cost tens of thousands!"

                Last year I had one of those "Feck me, how did I get through so much money over the weekend?" moments and decided to write down all my booze expenditure.

                Once you start doing that it's easy enough to work it back to how many beers you had.

                It definitely helps when you want to lose weight.
