Hi Upsy Daisy

If i knew I could drink the whole bottle and still feel fine the next morning I would, but 2/3 of the bottle has to do in the week, Any more and I start to feel a bit groggy and not want to get up......Im the worst morning person as it is :rolleyes:
I have to be careful if I have a box of wine in as my glasses seem to get bigger and I cant see exactly how much ive drank.....:rolleyes:
I worked out my weekly units roughly and im drinking around 60 a week even being careful.....:eek:
Stroppy xx

I hope Mr Dog is okay Fedup.

Day 12 AF for me today NTC.

I am sleeping much more these past few days. I went to bed really early the past two nights. I went for another evening walk last night which really calms me down and stops the bells ringing so loudly and I felt much more relaxed when I got in. I have read that a solution to weight problems and drink problems can be to change your usual routine and most people seem to be in the danger period for buying/ drinking booze in the evening.

Anyway it is usually quiet on here Saturdays and Sundays but I hope you are all having a good weekend whatever you are doing.:A

Hi 115K. Totally related you your comments, Friday night and I was waiting for 10 oclock then I could go to bed without feeling too childish:rotfl: I am doing some dvd workouts atm and yesterday morning was up a 6.30 wanting to crack on with it:eek: that is about the biggest change in routine I could have from this time last year. Good thoughts about the routine though I need to keep thinking about different things to do that dont involve a glass of wine.
Budgie hope you are having a lovely weekend with your son. Im sure you will be
FUAS Poor Mr Dog hope he is OK but well done anyway on keeping off the wine
Winebox any news? come on girl come back your posts make me smile
Jo hope all is ok with you

So come on folks so near to the finishing post now lets put in the final bit of effort:D
Have a lovely Saturday everyone

noynoy

sorry still 11/31 send me off the pitch ref

Morning all
Hope you are all bright and breezy this Saturday morning

Good luck to everyone who wants to be AF today, and moderation for us cutter downers :rolleyes: :A

maman

Morning everyone.

I'm feeling lousy today after wine last night. It's definitely true for me that tolerance is lowered after a spell of AF. I only drank what would have been normal for me before this challenge and now I feel like dead woman walking! I'm also sure that a routine change is needed to stop me craving at 6 p.m. That joke 'I like to cook with wine, sometimes I put it in the food' was made for me. With the clocks going forward, an early evening walk is much more feasible as a distraction.

Have a good day whatever you're doing.
