    :wave:hi daisychain, well done you, another AF day and a fitness class, fab, what a great start to the NYear you are having. My plan is to go to Zumba on Sat at 9am! Will wait and see tho! Having friends round tomorrrow night so know i wont be AF but planning on sticking to my WW points.

    thanks Mackeroo !! this time of year I'm usually worse than usual !! You sound like you're on track.... now get to that Zumba class on sat morning !!!;) Hangover or no hangover !!;)

    My plan for tomorrow night after a good think about what I'm going to do is watch 'When a man loves a woman' again.... it's the one where Meg Ryan has a huge drink problem.... always makes me think what a horrible drunk I am !!:eek::eek::eek:
    Hope it keeps me off the vino.....:)

    2AF for January Shaggy please and 2 for the week's challenge Pen

    Zippity doo dah, Zippity aye,
    My oh my what a wonderful day
    Plenty of sunshine coming my way,
    Zippity doo dah, its my 2nd Af Day :j

    Woo hoo Mackeroo, you sound very upbeat - thanks for the grin over here!

    Welcome to Hugo and any other new folks I've missed. :wave:

    Budgie, thanks for the mention, I felt all important and special then!

    2AF for January please and 2 for the week's challenge Pen - me too please!

    Hope everyone is doing well tonight, I went to fat club too Mackeroo (WW for me) but have decided that most of my surplus food is booze related. Good luck with Zumba this Saturday Daisychain. Had pizza tonight home alone but stayed alcohol free, also managed Tuesday but had some wine last night so haven't made my 3 this week. 2/16 towards January's target.

    Sleep well everyone.

    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.
