  1. When you dont eat you can get drunk alot easyer sound to me like you are a light weight and you got a buzz of 2 beers it happens to some people


  2. you didnt do anything wrong,ur just drunk

  3. You didn't do anything wrong.  That's just how the body reacts to alcohol when it's consumed quickly and on an empty stomach.

    Most people think that the food in your stomach "soaks up" the alcohol.  That's not quite the case, but food does help.  Alcohol is primarily absorbed into the bloodstream when it gets into your small intestine.  On an empty stomach, the booze is passed on pretty quickly through the digestive process.  If you eat, your stomach closes off the small intestine while it does it's work.  While some of the alcohol will move on, not all of it will.  Food -- especially carbohydrates, protiens and fatty foods -- will indeed keep you from getting buzzed so quickly.  This is exactly why "bar food" is almost always breaded, fried, or chicken wings!

    Slow down a bit, too.  Your body can handle only one drink per hour.  Anything beyond that goes into the bloodstream, giving you that buzz.  15 - 30 minutes per drink will allow you to drink more without getting tipsy too quickly, but without staying sober while your friends have a better time.

  4. Eat some carbs before you drink.  Why do you think pizza goes so well with booze?  :)  Gotta have something in your stomache to soak it up or you'll get drunk too fast.  On the other hand... at least it's cheaper to go out the way you've been doing it.
