Hey girl

Ive noticed a bit of a difference but not too much. My main problem is that i used to drink beer so now, drinking liquor, does effect me differently. However, i can have a full drink and feel fine. Now, after two thats a different story.. thats my new limit and ive become a total sipper, i can make a drink last a while :) Be careful and have fun!

I was about 3 months out when I had my first drink. I had a draft beer with lemon and unlike most people who say that the carbonation was horrible on their tummy, I had no such effects. Where I get in trouble is with hard liquor. My drink of choice is Seagrams Seven Whiskey and Diet Coke. I limit drinking these to once a month because I started noticing that it felt really good going down and therefore I would drink like 5 or 6 in one night. You have to be careful of transfer addictions. I usually stick with beer and can usually drink 3 or 4 in a 3 to 4 hour sitting. I usually only go out on Friday nights and occasionally on Saturday. Just use your own discretion and sip when you first experiment with alcohol. You'll be fine. We are the generation that drinks so no judgements here.

Thanks girls for your input!! Yeah before when I first started drinking, I saw no difference ... and thought I wasnt effected any differently...until my friends 21st birthday...and we were all taking shots..and let me tell you that was a bad idea. It was like i was instantly wasted....I dont suggest shots, or if you do want them, just have one...lol bc nobody wants to be a sloppy drunk!
