    Wot they both said about not having caught up.
    I managed an AFD today (and two days ago) so I'm up to 11/14 now. The bells were ringing as I had an unexpected invite to the pub, paid for too, but stuck to diet coke and felt smug. And a tiny bit wistful but mostly smug. Hope to catch up on here sometime soon, hope everyone is doing well. Good night
  • Well done peeps

    Bells passed at this end as well - kept myself busy - hugs to you all - attempting an early (ish) night!

    Gosh IM 3.5 stone loss is amazing!!! well done you! :T

    I stopped alcohol for good end of Aug 09 & have about half a stone....but thats without doing anything else & I am very active anyway so I guess I didn`t have much to lose really.

    Big test this weekend...a week away in Canaries ahead...I hope I can get my lime cordial out there otherwise I shall be suffering massive withdrawal symptoms....LOL I need my own thread to wean me off it !!!...(thats off the lime cordial not the alcohol:eek::eek:)

    Anyway...17 days for me please

    Take care & be strong .

    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.
