How much alcohol do you drink in a week?

I did a poll on my blog asking readers if they ever worried they might be drinking to much. 75% answered "yes". So I'm interested to know what "too much" is. Please take a second to log your answer on my latest poll:

I have not had any alcohol for 10 weeks now since I started in AA. But I used to drink at least 7 bottles of wine a week, and I am told that amounts to 63 units. Women are supposed to have no more than 14! So it's probably as well I stopped...
What about you?
Cheers!

On average I drink 3 or 4 glasses of wine or black cherry cider in a week. I never drink more than 1 glass at a time, and some weeks I don't drink any alcohol at all. -
I usually have a few beers over the weekend (3-4) and I'll often have a glass or two of wine at night during the work week. I don't think that's too bad - it's certainly better than in my college years! -
NOT ENOUGH -
I think the question for me has to be restated.
How much alcohol don't you drink in a week?
99.999993% of the alcohol in this world gets by me, try as I might, I still can't make a dent. -

Too much for me is 2 wine coolers. Luckily, New Years is the only time I have my 2. I don't know when it happened the appeal of drinking died. Kids maybe? -
Goodness - I only started drinking excessively after I had children and became a single parent. It was all downhill after that. Which is why I am in AA now! But looking through what some of you drink - it really hits home that I drank a lot. Even when I tried to tell myself I didn't. Scary to think how warped our minds can get...
