This part where we lose control after we take any alcohol into our body is very obvious. But what is not obvious to many people is, the subtle insanity that precedes that act. We override the resolution and succumb to that desire to take a drink or two. Go back to your own experience of trying to stop. Every time we started again, it was probably with a thought something like this. Here is what I will do this time.............. Mine was I will drink Micalob lite beers, its low in calories.....sometimes, It will be I will just drink 1 beer but then once I put something in my body, the fight is over. This experiment of stopping and starting again, went on for a while. Only after entering the fellowship of AA and reading the book AA, I saw this phrase "peculiar mental twist" throughout the book that precedes the act of drinking.

Perhaps you're over-thinking this a bit. In my case, the issue isn't what I drink, but that I drink at all and the amount. My personal goal is to stop altogether, so whether I had a beer, or a glass of wine, or a mini cocktail isn't as important as the fact that I had 6 of them in the course of a couple of hours.

Since they don't have the categories you want, I think you could make up your own rules for where those things go. Just decide that a cooler is the same as a glass of wine and put it there; consider a malt beverage a beer, etc. I think accuracy isn't as important as awareness of what you're consuming. Good luck!

Either more categories, or just alcohol percentage range? Some beers are light,some are strong (3% to 10%or even stronger) Wines go from about 7% to 14%, fortified even higher. Spirits generally in the 40% area but what about premixed? Usually 4.5 to7%?  I don't know where to log things.

There are only categories for beer, wine,and spirits. What should I enter ciders , coolers, or liqueurs into?
