    Hope you're all enjoying your Sunday.

    Feeling a 'bit flat' today :-/

    It's the realising, that my life is a bit empty, that I struggle with, when I'm sober.

    Not down, just a bit flat.

    Anyone else get like this?!

    I'm still feeling ashamed of myself after last night. It was a planned drinking night but I also had cheese and crackers and crisps and a Crunchie, all on top of a very generous supper:eek:. My biggest hope in cutting down was to save calories but I'll never do it that way

    I know exactly where you're coming from with OH jo. The easiest way for me to have loads more AF days would be to go out on my own more in the evenings and drive. That way the time would pass without me thinking about drinking. Also, OH likes me to sit with him after supper and chat. I like it too but when I'm AF I want to get up and keep busy. I find being AF not very social...it's all about habit and association.

    Hi sim, I know just what you mean. Many on here quote HALT (hungry, angry, lonely, tired) as triggers for drinking but I think bored/flat can be just as bad. Activiity is definitely the answer but not shopping or drinking:D. You're doing brilliantly by the way:T

    !

    Life is not flat when you are sober. It is only when we F**k it up by being drunk that we realise that our life when sober is what we want/need to be happy :(

    Sorry to be deep there but I bet Sunderland FC will go and win now and really mess up my weekend

    Hi everyone,

    Sim, I get exactly like that. In fact it was failing to rouse myself from it yesterday that means I'm late posting on here with the April results. I try to drink some water and eat something and see if I still feel like that. With the pattern of sleep you've been having I guess it could just take some more good nights of sleep to sort you out? Hugs and well done, you're going great guns.

    Sorry for not coming on here with the results until now - here goes.
    December Baby, thanks for agreeing to score in May. Please could you put me down for a target of 16.Fay, very belated birthday greetings. Huge Welcome back to Winebox - so glad you've returned. And to Mari too.
    Budgie, how's your new treadmill, hope it's going well?
