    Ok, me darlings, your updated 72hr challengers are:

    Me! :D
    WBF

    Yay, you remembered me! :TI was feeling quite disappointed and left out until then and was trying to work out how to tell you that I wasn't on the list without making you feel as guilty as I would have done, if that makes sense.

    Well. I am out of the starting box (had to, sorry!) and the first furlongs have gone well. Actually they haven't, I've been a tired and moody cow this evening but didn't drink, so I'm calling that a win. Although I probably didn't *need* the 6 oreos after a large dinner. There are some left in the packet though. And I think it might have to be one thing at a time at the moment as I'm soooo tired.

    Sleep well everyone.

  • Hiya

    Yes I`m on 72 hours & also on 2/30 for Nov .

    Busy packing boxes for housemove & digging allotment...(not at the same time....the digging is my relaxation:eek::eek:)

    Not even thinking about wine anymore. I really enjoy Lidl sparkling water & Roses lime cordial soooo much! All I needed was a drink to replace the wine I think. For me I need to just have a glass of something....I have realised it does not need to have alcohol in it!!

    Off to bed so night all.

    Good luck everyone on the 72 hour challenge.

    :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Oh this thread is such a tonic!!

    1AF please GG.

    I'll keep in touch but won't be AF again until Thursday as out socialising.
  • This feels most unfair. AF last night and still awake in the middle of the night. Guess I need more nights under my belt and then I'll sleep through..

    WBF maybe you are drinking too much caffeine?
    What do we do when we fall? We get up, dust ourselves off and start walking in the right direction again. Perhaps when we fall, it is easy to forget there are people along the way who help us stand and walk with us as we get back on track.
  • Well the bells got me Sunday night, last two cans in fridge so first day of November and I fell at the fence :(

    Fought my way through the clanging last night and have made 1/30. Please GG can I change my target already ? :o

    See if I don't come on her each day I find it easier to adopt the 'oh sod it' attitude.
