The giving up/cutting down alcohol support thread! Part 5

Pippilongstocking

new thread a good idea - I guess if we start one ourselves then there's no harm in PM'ing mod to shut this one down

I'd vote for asap - its a big thread and sometimes that puts folks off?

PS liked your BB post by the way.

Wow Jo - congrats on mega-post and thank you for your kindness and acknowledgement. I do feel well and am loving waking up in the morning and actually being able to get up at a reasonable time rather than turning over because I feel so shocking.

Hope you get your own health problems sorted - am sure a weeks detox will make you feel better all round but might still be worth getting checked out in case it's unrelated.

Mmmmmmm think I agree with Fay incidentally about the size of the thread ans starting a new one - know if I'm having a bit of a trawl through the boards for something to read I tend to avoid one's that have lots of postings - sort of feel a bit of an intruder I guess

Okay, well we'll keep the general consensus (sp???!) going till later when there might be more people about and get Lurky to start a new one later

I tend to agree about the 'large-ness' of the thread incidently.....didn't actually occur to me before cos all me mates live in here (sorry to new'ies that might be put off.....please when a new one starts feel free to join in if not before )

Always a first time lurks, and you are guaranteed to get a good response to it I tend to be a thread killer :undecided

Afternoon all!

DB - sorry to hear about your problems. Glad to hear your son did get home in one piece though.

Jo - I'm with you. Think we should start a new thread. This one is huge now and it prob does put put people off of having a look? I know I don't look at other humungous threads myself. Same as you with the washing machine - we just can't afford another one yet so am having to use the local launderette (my mums house!:rotfl:)

HB - 22 for me please!

Lost 1lb this week. Quite pleased with that but was hoping for a bit more after having that 24 hour stomach bug!:rotfl:

OH out with his son all day today - he's taken him to xscape in milton keynes for snowboarding lessons (it was his birthday present from last december) so he won't be back till this evening. Piglet stayed home with me and is being a bit of a horror. Roll on bed-time!:rotfl:

Brand spanking new thread

Hello everyone

What a lot of lovely kind posts today - thank you everyone for the hugs you sent to me. I feel better/stronger today. On another note I had a glass of wine last night - just ONE!!!!! I am stunned at myself - I had one and then I stopped. Unheard of - I am learning I think about this moderation lark!

So not AF yesteday but fine in my book.

DB - what a horible thing to happen to you - a huge hug to you.

Hope everyone else is managing today - I'm up for a new thread as I do think the long ones can be a bit intimidating to newbies.
