Habits
Drinking Pace Slowdown Rule
A drinking pace slowdown rule alternates alcohol with water or NA drinks—stretching caps and cutting front-loaded intoxication on social nights.
A drinking pace slowdown rule spaces drinks with water or NA rounds—one alcohol, one water—so blood alcohol rises slower and weekly caps are not blown in the first hour. It reduces both units and late-night food grabs triggered by rapid intoxication.
Set the rule before arriving; tell the table once, not every round.
Common questions
-
Does slowing pace reduce calories too?
Often yes—fewer total units and less impulse food. Pair pacing with a protein-rich meal so hunger does not drive late snacks.
