I used to have this problem. Just man up and cut down on your drinking significantly.

There is no magic cure, or solution or algorithm for this. This is within your self, that's why it's called self control. Start riding your bike to work. Don't give any excuses, I used to ride my bike for an hour and ride the train/bus for another hour every day. Each way.

It helps if it hurts something you care about. For example, I couldn't code after a long night of drinking, or even after a couple of beers. Since I cared about my code, I now drink maybe once a month and can control my drinking even while partying.

I also find it kind of sad how your wife seems to run some important aspects of your life. You shouldn't need her to 'regulate' you in any way. You are a self sustaining human being and should be able to function as such.
