Ways to Cut Down on Drinking Alcohol

• Always stick to your limit.

• Don't drink alone.

• Drink slowly; don't gulp your beverage; and don't drink on an empty stomach.

• Don’t drink when you are thirsty.  Quench your thirst first with water.

• Don't drink every day.

• Add water or soda water to your drink to extend it without adding more alcohol.

• Don't start drinking the moment you arrive home or at an event. Wait awhile.

• Change your routine. For instance, if you normally have a drink at home after work, eat dinner or work out instead. Plan other activities to occupy your time.
