    Morning :hello:

    Just dashing in to say Hi! and say I've 2 more AFDs in the bag. My plan is to be AF for rest of the month/ until at least Wednesday. So it's an AF weekend for me.

    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.

    Ditto RA. "I've got a cold, I need a medicinal brandy" - easy:o, did it and still do (but hopefully not so much soon). Don't feel bad, it's the mind that's in control. Everyone here has helped me know that I'm not alone and that helps me feel better about myself, which means I know I have other ways to pick-me-up.:cool:

    Be gentle on yourself, accept the past and just try to improve slowly. Life's a long road and everyone takes wrong turns - we've just got a bit of a dodgy sat nav.:p

    Have a good evening everyone.

    Thank you xx

    Morning everyone, is there room for a newbie please?

    I'm unsure how to get started but really want to as the place i'm in at the moment isn't a good one. Hoping today will be my first AF day in a long time.

    I can't sleep and i know i'm going to be very tired today, been awake since 2am.

    Welcome on board Cuppa, with the support you receive from here I`m sure you will put an AF day or two under your belt.xxxxx
  • Oh by the way, 1 MORE AF DAY FOR ME PLEASE SHAGGY THATS 11 SO FAR, THANK YOU.

    Morning everyone and welcome Cuppa:hello: - You've come to the right place. I only joined 10 days ago and I've already got 3 AF days under my belt:) which beats the previous couple of years!

    It always raises my spirits coming on here, especially when the bells are ringing for a drink. And if you can join in the challenges, it really adds some extra resolve.

    Hope eveyone else is fine - weekend tomorrow!:cool:

    Gotta dash....
    Smoke-free since Jan 2012 :j Now its just the drink, and the weight, and life in general :p

    Thank you everyone for your welcoming greetings and for inspiring me to join in. I don't think it will be easy as old habits are hard to break, but its definitely time too. I read here one day at a time, so even though i'd like to do a week or more, today i'm aiming for today!

    Please can someone explain about the additional challanges?

    Thank you.
    Live for the moment and plan for the future
