2 Get all the alcohol beverages out of your

house. Get them out of your refrigerator out of your cupboards dump it down the sink and throw the bottles away, you will feel liberated after doing so.

3 Tell your party friends goodbye. Here comes the hard

part. All those people who you party with who stick with you because you buy all the beer... tell them bye bye. Tell them however you want to, but you have to stay away from people who are going to influence you to drink. So bottom line and I don't care if its your girlfriend, if they are not part of the solution then they are part of the problem.
