Alcohol simply stopped appealing, which I did not expect and which has been more socially complicated than the weight loss.

The narrow version of the question is whether the change in tolerance is the smaller stomach, the smaller body, or something central, and whether it settles.

Practical detail welcome, however dull — the duller the better.

Answering the narrow version, because the broad one does not have a single answer. It is worth asking what the claim would look like if it were false. If nothing would look different, it is not a claim about the world and no amount of discussion will settle it.

That is right, and it stops being right at the edges. The general case is well behaved; the interesting cases in this thread are all at the boundary where the general case breaks.

This is my experience too, for whatever a second data point is worth. I had assumed I was the exception until I read this.

From the other side of the consultation, briefly. Start from the measurement rather than the conclusion. Almost every disagreement here turns out to be two people measuring different things and comparing the numbers anyway.
