Alcohol Tolerance?

Hey everyone I was wondering if anyone had any experience with lowering ones alcohol tolerance? I recently went on a break since I was drinking to much (4 times a week or more) and was hopefully going to lower my tolerance. I just don't know much about how alcohol tolerance works. I'll be having my first alcohol this Saturday after a two week break. Hopefully I'll be able to cop a buzz off significantly less.

two weeks wouldn't be long enough. give it three months and depending on how long you've been a drinker your tolerance will be almost 0 again

Only been drinking 4 times a week? That's not a whole lot. How much do you drink on those 4 days?

You'' be fine. If you want to lower your tolerance, go to a high elevation. > 5000 ft.

Constant drinking is treated differently by your boy than binge drinking, it depends on which you mean.

4 times a week isnt that much. like owls said. 2 weeks? not long enough. and like bothhands said. 2 weeks is nothing.
if you want to notice it... do 4 weeks. seriously dont drink for 4 weeks.

I find that if I don't drink for 3 or 4 days and then have a drink, it is like an alcohol orgasm. But, I haven't tried that for a long long time.

Depends on how long you've been drinking for... 2 weeks is decent for weed tolerance, and I think you'll definitely notice a difference, but it won't be the same as if you took a month break.
1 month of no drinking and you'll get smashed off of 5 shots

It sounds like everyone is just throwing out random answers, does anyone have first hand account of this? And I think getting drunk 4 times a week for at least 2 years now is heavy drinking. How much do some of you think is heavy drinking? haha And I've noticed when I've taken just week breaks my tolerance definitly drops but not as significantly as I wanted. I'll report back here Sunday after I drink and let you guys know if my tolerance was lowered or if it was roughly the same.

Well, that's why I specifically asked how much you were drinking on those 4 days. 4 beers a week is NOT heavy drinking.
I usually have 4 drinks a day, but I never get drunk. I'm never more than slightly buzzed, because I space them out over several hours. I wouldn't consider that heavy drinking either.

getting drunk 4 times a week is a LOT. my answer is from personal experience... i typed you out a huge paragraph about it last night but decided not to post it as i've quit drinking..
give it 2-3 months, i'm serious, you'll notice a massive decrease in tolerance. what else do you have going on in your life that's so pressing you can't give up teh sauce for a couple months..?

It does not matter of the spacing of the drinks... its still heavy drinking to have 4 glasses a day, every day. You may not think its heavy drinking cuz you don't get drunk but that isn't true.. its still poison and when you drink your body prioritizes to metabolize the alcohol and acetate over many functions
Alcohol is very rough on the body and stomach lining, and is more intoxicating to the ladies. You may not be getting as intoxicated but its still fucking up your normal body function

And smoking weed is extremely damaging to your lungs. 
But it feels damn good, and I'm gonna keep doing it.
