i pretty much stopped drinking at the beginning of the year, mostly to help lose weight. (it has helped a lot, when added to the other things i've been doing.) i have saved a ton of money though. when i do have a drink i'll have a vodka & tonic, pretty much no calories there but it's kind of an acquired taste. i know what you mean about people acting like you're judging them though.. i've tried to stay out of bars because i can't handle everyone's comments like "oh so you're straight edge now?"
