    Morning all

    10 for me please Shaggy!

    Another day of being up early here. Piglet coughing again since 5am. Have a feeling he won't be going to school again today :( Think I will have to have today off work. Can't keep asking my Mum.

    Determined to stay AF this weekend. Had weigh-in last night and had lost a pound. Know it could have been more. So wine is being knocked on the head this week. Determined to reach the half stone next week.

    Maman - well done on your loss this week!:T

    Sarahmoo - welcome to the thread:T

    Bearacus - welcome back :T You know you CAN post, even if you're not AF. We are all here for support, not judgement.:)

    Miss P

  • Hi chaps, first update of March from me. Have struggled to get to 10 AFDs so far. Last drink was last Friday but it was a 3-day bender. Touch and go to fit in another 10 before the end of the month but am determined to do so.

    dundeedoll please post again if the urge takes you, anybody else lurking that hasn't posted for a while, would be nice to see you too. :wave:. wb where are you?

    hs (dreading work today, enforced jollity of comic relief gets right on my t1ts)

    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.

    Thanks Maman, I did used to post on here a lot, but then got a load of nasty Pms telling me to booger off as I had no right at all to post because I don't drink - didn't want to upset the good vibe of the thread, so stayed away.
    Still read tho' :D;)

    Well done on the 1.5lb!

    You're always welcome-1.gif DD...:T
