    PLEASE PUT YOUR TARGET AFDs IN A BOLD RED FONT and good luck!
    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.

    Morning everyone,

    Thanks to Shaggy for posting our scores for Jan, I must confess that I got up and logged on extra early to stick my last AF of the month down so that I could get my :jand now I am a very happy bunny:D.

    Feeling very positive for Feb, planning on lots more exercise and lots less wine drinking. I may even attempt to count calories but I've never been very good at that kind of thing. The evenings are staying lighter longer now which I find is always a bit of a "pick me up" and my garden is full of dafodils, crocuses and various other pretty little spring flowers just waiting to burst in to colour:)

    Well done to everyone on achieveng some fab AF totals and here's to lots more AFness in Feb.

    Have a good day all

  • Good morning all

    Well done everyone on some great totals for January!!:T:T And thanks to Shaggy once again for keeping tally.

    Just got today and tomorrow at work and then I have a few days off. Looking forward to that as the atmosphere at work is a bit tense at the moment.:(

    Have good Tuesdays everyone :)

  • 19 for me in January Shaggy.

    One short, but if I'd been told I would manage 19 at the start of the month I'd have laughed with disbelief. Sharing a bottle of wine on Friday blew it but this thread must have caught me as it would have been easy to drink the rest of the weekend.

    I am too old to remember the last time I didn't drink on a Saturday! Even the OH drinking cider didn't derail me.

    Just looking at your sig Laurent. It seems everything is going down for you except your AF days! :T on the weightloss and the debtbusting, a very successful month all round. What a start to 2011:)

    Some fantastic scores all round, let's be positive going into the new month!!

    Hello all,

    Spent an AF night last night to complete January, missing my total by 1, so that makes 13/14 AF for Jan please Shaggy (D'oh - just missed getting my next smiley!) and Day 1 of 4-day challenge please Pen. Hopefully I'll do better hitting my target in Feb - definitely will start on the right track tonight though! :)

    Wishing everyone good luck for their AF targets in Feb, and any other goals - weight loss or other money-saving missions!

    Bear xx
  • Phew, just made it to 20 for January with a slightly tortuous 6/7 AF days in the last week to meet the target. Feb will be even harder with 3 fewer days to do it in, but here goes....let's get ready to FAFF!!
