How many can i drink?!


Question:

How many can i drink?

If i weigh 140, 5'5", how much can i drink before i hit our legal limit??

I dont know if it matters but i usually dont drink beer, mostly mixed cocktails


Answers:

I do believe the legal limits are based on state guidelines, but basically a "drink" is equal to one 12oz beer, a 4oz glass of wine, or 1oz of liquor. In Florida 2 drinks within an hour time frame will put you over the legal limit, and I would assume other states are the same. Your dimensions would get you those type of effects.

You lose the effects of 1 drink per hour from your liver doing its work. So if you are planning a longer night out, then you can drink a little more, or quit drinking a few hours before you have to drive if you are worried about driving.
