I hope our new posters can find us...
I couldn't even find you for ages...:(
Thanks for the new thread Jo.I can't believe how far we have come,
So I thought I would remind people of my very favourite post ever ....from Springwatchgirl......:)
Well, week 5 of no alcohol and I see a different person in the mirror. My eyes no longer look dull and vacant, they actually have a little sparkle and my skin doesn't look like uncooked pastry anymore. I feel that I have won a battle but not yet the war. Hope everyone else is at the point they want to be, I never want to be that person I was, I have been tempted but I just think back to what I had become. The sun is shining at the moment and I feel good and want to continue to have the sun in my life.
Everyone can get to this stage if they want it enough.....
Good luck to you all
Love Mollypollyxxxx:happylove :happylove

Sim Congratulations on winning your appeal. you must be hugely relieved but don't forget what you said, celebrate with a slice of cake or if you like, the whole thing.
RNOf all the things I've lost, I miss my mind the most.

Thank you MP, as you know, this is also my fav post from all (now) NINE whole threads...I have PM'd her a couple of times of the years to see how she is, but I think her ID is now no longer in use
always wondered how she got on.
Please give me a nudge MP (I really need to clean the cooker :eek:) remind me to add that to the first post and whoever posts the first post from now on must include it
xx

I would just like to take this oppurtunity to apologise to everyone for my part in the other thread being closed down.
I hope that we can all move on from this now, we are all still on the same side.
hugs to all that need them...

You seem to be in a good place DB, how you doing? xx
Hiya Jo. I'd say I am very slowly inching snail like towards where I'd like to be and trying to accept that and not get too worked up about the times I don't quite make it!
How is you - is that cooker done yet! What fun Friday nights we do have
DB x0 -
So is it clean yet Jo???:p
I'm feeling amazingly positive tonight. Going easy on myself. Out for dinner tomorrow with OH, Mum and Dad. We are paying, a thank you to mum and Dad for everything they have done in the last five years to help me, OH and Piglet. Normally I'd be fretting about calories, whether I'd exercised enough etc to eat/drink what I want. THIS time I've decided to stick to my diet but ignore what I have tomorrow nightSunday morning I'll be straight back on diet. Fed up with being fat and frumpy so doing something about it but determined not to be miserable in the meantime!:D
Sorry to vent....but you guys listen to me!:rotfl:
