Day 3
“Faith in our self has to work 24 hours a day!”
-Adapted from AA quote
One important way to continue your success is to do things that will solidify your decision not to drink. It is time to get rid of all beer bongs, tables, ect…!
- Review your list of reasons to quit.
- Use your money to buy something you have wanted today.
- You may anxious or nauseated, so focus on taking care of yourself. Take aspirin, go for a walk, or relax in a hot bath.
- Go to the Rock or Rolfs and work out today
The more you reward yourself and renew your commitment each day, the more likely you are going to feel better about this decision.

and alcohol’s effects continue long after the party is over.

Science Daily reported March 11 that the majority (71 percent) of women surveyed overestimated — by an average of one-and-a-half drinks — the number of alcohol beverages men wanted their female friends, dates, or girlfriends to drink.
