    Feeling better thanks HoneyB, I was just so frozen and couldn't get warm. My neck and shoulders are hurting still but at least I have warmed up. :D

    Still feel sooo very tired though, took 3 sleeping tablets last night, I just can't seem to relax lately :confused: (Just to clarify the Doctor said upto 3)

    It never matters if I have alcohol or not, I always have trouble sleeping.

    I am due to go back to the Doctors in 2 weeks to get my blood pressure checked.

    I have put a stone in weight on :eek: and it so needs to come off.

    Bet you're glad you asked now ;)

    Happy New Year mate and lets hope its a good one for us both?

    I'm going with what it says on Shoe Gal's thread & that 2010 is the year of being fabulous ;)

    I'm sorry about your sleeping tho, doll - I struggle a lot so I know it's hellish. Your body can't heal itself properly when you don't sleep, which will affect weight & blood pressure, sadly :(

    Paws crossed for you, babe ;)

    btw.i intend to go back to the gym tomorrow so the health kick will be starting :eek:

    Except that I think that also Snowy, Yellow Monkey and So Sad Angel might have reached their target so extra woohoo for you confetti2.gif

    Those who exceeded their target:

    Price is right HSstars.gif
    Yellowmonkey HSstars.gif
    Shaggydoo HSstars.gif

    All between 5% to 8% and together 58% of total achieved

    Summary:

    Pledged 498 had 390 AF days which is 79% in 100% of time.

    In the end we are 105 AF days short from the target but I don't think I have everybody's scores so that might be lot less.

    And full table here as always

  • Sorry Marru, my mistake, yes thats 29, I was always useless at Maths!!

    Thanks again for scoring for us this month. Love the Jumpies!!:j:j

    Hope everyone's doing okay tonight. I'm sipping a glass of some ice cold sparkling water, and thinking, I should be drinking hot chocolate, as I am so cold!!!

    Off for a hot soak.;)

    Hello Peeps

    Well it's just gone 9pm and I haven't touched a drop.

    Normally I would be well oiled by now, it is quite hard though I must admit, but it's all in my head since I don't feel any urge to drink when I've got work the next day so it's just a habit I've got to get myself out of.

    To make things worse there's half a bottle of voddie in the kitchen :(

    I would like to declare 1 day AF please!!!! sm199.gif

    Enjoyed Dr Who and Eastenders but feeling tired, so back to bed I go.

    Tomorrow I need to do a list of what I have in my house (toiletries, food etc) and will have a look at the various challenges to see what I want to do. Also better check that my rent went out (in the process of switching bank accounts....)

    Night all

    Kittie, sweets, I don't think I have you on my list - do you have a target or just one day at a time? :confused:

    And ignore the vodka!

    Honeybear I am giving it up completely.

    I really need to save the money and tbh I'm getting fed up of waking up the morning after a session and feeling rubbish until about 4pm the next day lol.

    So zero amount allowed all year :eek:
