    ;) New month tomorrow - good luck everyone

    I am sorry I am not around much at the minute but I am reading this thread still and will update.
    It's not that I don't want to be here but I am being cyberbullied [NOT here] and cyberstalked - so need to keep my head down. Hope you all understand :confused:

    Sorry to hear that FluffyBishop - Is there anything you can do in the way of reporting them to someone for harassment?

    Thanks BHB & BB :A:A

    Everything is in hand
  • How do I go about a name change anyone know? :confused:

    I did it online FB .. although you have to follow it up by letting passport/banks/creditors/etc know, else you end up being known by different names by different people, like me!

    Good luck, though, sounds unpleasant .. not sure what you can do about it, aside from reporting it to the stalkers ISP (if you know it).

  • Er .. unless you mean change of id, in which case I'm no use .. leave and come back under a different id?

    evening all!

    Many thanks to wonderful Budgie :Afor scoring this month wonderfully with love light and inspiration for us all.

    My second lot of thanks is to all of you :A for helping me stay on the straight and narrow and achieve the most AFD I have done in the last 3 years which is when I last cut down/stopped.

    That means I am now at a point where I can imagine being AF again, hence the June target for a total abstaining month. I have got my head round this and I am looking forward to it :D

    PS
    Well done BHB on being AF through the BBQ with so many other drinkers. Congrats and coping with the big triggers of sum, company and booze.

    No wine bells for me today, all over and done with now hopefully!

    Sorry foab, I wasn't very clear in my post DOH!! I meant a name change on here
  • No worries, FB .. had a quick look, looks like you can't change it - only create a new account under a different name. Maybe could get a new account, then PM your friends here to let them know of a new name without revealing it to stalker?!

    Just an idea. If I was in your position, I'd be disappearing! Good luck, hope you can sort it soon ..

    Just a quick post to say well done to everyone achieving their May targets.
    Everyone seems to have done really well.:T:T

    Good luck with your June targets guys and gals.

    Tomorrow is the start of a new shiny month and I will start it as I mean to go on.My life seems in a bit of a mess at the moment ....spending too much, eating too much.( I have put about half a stone back on:o)...not earning enough.....so plans are as follows:-

    New slimming world class in the morning (old one seems to have gotten stale....same stories every week...no new ideas)
    Do some meal planning and stop going to the shop everyday..ie Have some NSDs.
    Spend more time on my desk instead of procrastinating.:o

    Oh and put me down for 30 days please 40SM.:D

    Budgie...thank you so much for being a lovely lady and keeping everyone going during May.

    Hope you are all where you want to be

    Take care of you
    Love Mollypollyxxxx
