As for alcohol, it's always present at work and it's hard to not drink. I can't say no to free beers ;)

#221 glass of watered red wine with dinner (my only meal each day). When going out, I will have 2-3 glasses of wine, but only once every two weeks or so. The rest of the time I'll drink Perrier or soda water.
3-4 glasses of water a day. More on workout days, but I find on a ketogenic diet my water requirements are less. I don't add salt to my food, and I cook all my meals. I don't use condiments either.
I don't drink tea, energy drinks, juice, smoothies, or pop. What I enumerated above is what I drink.

#23Once or twice per year I tend to take 1 - 4 weeks off from alcohol and taper down on caffeine significantly. .. sometimes down to no caffeine. It's rough going for a few days but afterwards I feel that I can't tell the difference between not consuming and consuming

#24Very little alcohol, 1-2 drinks once every other week or so, often with stretches of a month or more with none at all. I just don't seem to enjoy it as much as many people do, although it is nice sometimes.

#26I drink, on average, 6 standard drinks per week (all beer). Usually after work and, in the last 3 three years, no more than 2 at once.

#28Alcohol: up to two beers at a date, happy hour, or other event. Three if it lasts more than 4 hours. A glass of wine if eating dinner with someone else. Probably averages 2-3 nights per week with any alcohol consumption. No negative effect on social life (though I do enjoy social events more when self-medicating for social anxiety with those beers). More than one drink does affect my sleep that night and energy levels for a couple days, but I haven't been hung over in a decade except for after that one wedding...
