Todd: So, Al, you mentioned that you quit smoking 1.


Al: Yes, I did.


Todd: Now, I also heard that you quit drinking.


Al: I did. Almost, about one week after I quit smoking, I quit drinking.


Todd: Wow! No more? No beer? No wine with dinner?


Al: No.


Todd: Nothing?


Al: No.


Todd: Never?


Al: Nothing, never.


Todd: Have you even had a little bit since you quit?


Al: No, I can't have a little bit. It's all or nothing for me so.


Todd: Wow!


Al: Yeah, nothing at all.


Todd: That's pretty tough to do. Well, I mean, you seem pretty happy, I mean.


Al: I'm very happy.


Todd: OK. So what, why did you stop drinking? Why do you think it's better not to drink any alcohol 2?


Al: I don't, I mean, I'm not against drinking the way I am against smoking. I knew that for me it was the best thing to do because drinking is getting in the way of other things I wanted to do with my life.


Todd: Right.


Al: So, and I didn't really, I drank a lot and I didn't enjoy it anymore.


Todd: Yeah.


Al: That was the thing.


Todd: Actually, I have to feel a little bit the same way. I'm a social drinker. I only drink when I'm with friends and I really don't like drinking because I don't like how it makes me feel afterwards, like if I have a glass of wine or beer, I can't work afterwards and that bothers me but its nice to have a glass of wine with a good meal.


Al: It is. Yes. There are things I miss about it but there are so many other good things that I've got from not drinking so I look at the balance and the sacrifice and for me it's worth it, not to drink. I can give up a glass of wine with dinner if get the other things I've got from it, so.


Todd: Well, do you feel healthier? Does you body feel better?


Al: I feel much healthier. I feel much more focused 3. My thinking is much clearer, and I like, I still go to bars and hang out with people and they drink and I don't and I go home, I love leaving a bar when I'm still sober 4. I love that feeling. I don't know why it's a fantastic feeling.


Todd: Well, sounds like something maybe I should consider.

Thanks Al
