5 Tips on Avoiding Holiday Overdrinking

 

  • Assess your personal drinking stamina. Then set the limit to how many drinks you are able to consume without feeling the effects of the alcohol.

  • Once you’ve reached your limit, refuse a drink offer with a prepared line about why you can’t drink any more. (i.e. “I’ve got an early morning business appointment that I can’t mess up by oversleeping.”)

  • Arrange a support system. Enlist a friend’s help in advising you when it’s time to say ‘no’ to that other drink.  

RELATED: how too much alcohol can spell trouble

  • Alcohol is not absorbed into the blood stream as fast if consumed on a full stomach. Make sure to eat a wholesome meal before heading out to your party and keep nibbling as you drink.

  • Avoid drinking multiple glasses of alcohol in quick succession. Instead, space each drink two hours apart. Take small sips as opposed to downing your drink in fast gulps.
