Re: Social drinking?

we eat to keep alive...not all people that are overweight eat too much...I suffer from a gland problem...I probably eat less that a child....and I walk a lot....however I understand there are people who do not control their appetites...
I am sorry if I came across judgmental...for many ultra cons think I am too tender hearted...however drinking and AA run in my family...I would never encourage anyone to drink....just one sip is enough to set an alcoholic off....I know ...my sister was one for many years...my daddy was one..his sister was one....

I once went to a Jehovah's witnesses little get together (some were my English students) and the elder that was there offered me drink...pour it for me I said....goodness everyone turned and looked....I held it up and smelled it and looked at them and said, sorry...I cannot imagine Jehovah smelling like this....and set the glass on the table....

Sorry if I sounded mean spirited....I did not mean to come across that way...
