is being a lightweight good?
it basically takes me 3 alco pops to get me blocked, no joke. sometimes it really annoys me because im drunk way before my friend have even started getting happy. however it also means that my average carry out is way cheaper than any one elses and i dont have to keep buying drinks. im just wondering, is there any way of becoming a heavyweight or will i be like this forever???

Well if you what you're saying is that you want to drink more on nights out, I suggest eating a lot of bread or other foods which are naturally starchy, it really induces a delay effect on the alcohol in your body. If you want to last longer in the evenings, just pace yourself, the body can break down one unit of alcohol in one hour = 1 beer, alopop, glass of wine. Also, as you drink more you'll develop a tolerance to alcohol and will eventually be able to consume more before getting drunk, up to a point.
If it doesn't take you much to get drunk, thus shortening your evening, space out your drinks and in between have soft drinks that way you'll go longer before getting legless! 
Yeah because it's cheaper and healthier really.
As beach surf babe said, space it out and drink non-alcoholic stuff if you don't want to get drunk too fast.

It's cheaper. So yes. 
Much better I'd say. I'm a lightweight. I can only have about 2 bottles and I'm already tipsy. Thankfully I'm still fairly sober to realise what I'm doing.

though you would get teased about it...
Yeah my boyfriend winds me up about it. I find it funny though.
I love that relaxed carefree feeling from drinking and i can get that after 1 beer. If it took me more i would feel all bloated and awful so it would really spoil my day if i had to drink much to get that feeling. therefore lightweight is a beautiful thing to be.
the amount of times ive gotten drunk by accident though when all i wanted wazs a social drink really sucks

It's just the way it is!
Prepare for a lifetime of constant ribbing for being wimpy with drink.
I'm a lightweight and I hate it. There is the advantage of getting drunk quicker and more cheaply, but it means that I'll happily be drinking with my friends, they'll be fine, I'll THINK I'm fine, then suddenly it'll hit me like a brick while my friends remain happily drunk/tipsy and I'm completely bladdered.
BTW before anyone does, don't give me the lecture about slowing down your drinking; if it was that simple, then it wouldn't be a problem would it?

It's not wimpy. I actually have a medical condition which means my head can't deal with too much drink.
