          There are so many:




          • Stay away from


          • Get out of


          • Duck out of/Wriggle out of/ flinch from/ abstain from and refrain from.



          Any one will do. But if you are still in the process, write




          • Cut down


          • Bring down


          • Shave off


          • Whittle away.
