    Morning everyone!

    No AFs to report here. Had a few beers on Saturday night and a couple yesterday! On the wagon tonight, no alcohol in the house so that should help. I need to make sure that the car doesn't try to drive me towards any shops today!

    Have a good day everyone!

  • Good morning everyone, and many congratulations to phoenix-dragon on your fab news.

    I have not been AF but will be from today, and will update you with my scores, onwards and upwards.

    I'm also trying to follow the SW diet, have not joined a class yet but filled up fridge with healthy options for the week.
  • 2 AFDs for me, please, Shaggy.

    I had a lovely mothers' day - very busy because I'd invited the outlaws over for lunch, and I put lots of effort into it, but it was appreciated and it was great for the family to be together.

    DD1 is back from uni now - she's done her first 2 terms - and her attitude seems finally to be improving. I had a lovely message from her on my mother's day card, saying how much she appreciated all the help I've given her over the past year (only the past year?? I'll let that go anyway). :) Some fellow posters will remember what a nightmare she has been over the past few years, so I think we might be turning a corner here, and it feels really good :T I never thought I'd see the day :T I just hope she reimburses DD2 for the present and card now ...

    Gawd. Bad day at work, hit a low. This is one of those times when I'd feel I deserve a drink tonight. What a test. I need to bear in mind that its only going to make me feel worse both tonight and tomorrow morning. Might have an extra early night to avoid temptation to nip to the local shop!

    Desperately looking for a positive in it.

    Morning all!

    Monday again already!!

    Just had to do some catching up as i've not logged on for a few days. Some awesome AFD totals posted for March. Keep it up for April. If i wasn't "with Bean" I think i'd find April a tough month with all the Bank Holidays, and we have a week's holiday next week :D.
    Think the bank account might take a bit of a pounding the next few weeks.
    Also:
    Congratulations on the fab news phoenix-dragon :j
    And Miss P, I hope you're feeling better!

    Not much else to report. Spent yesterday visiting the folks. MrR was given a lecture by his parents (his sister reported that he'd drunk 2 bottles of wine when she came round to see us the other evening and it had upset her). I chose to use my "Right to remain silent" on the whole matter, although after an hour with the in-laws even Little Bean needed a drink! :rotfl:

    Have a happy monday all!!

    Hi guys,

    Pretty bad week for me last night. I blew it good style.

    Was good y.day and had a lovely Mothers day with just 2 lagers out with a meal. Today zero, and I plan on that for the rest of this week. Away at a hotel at the weekend, so Im saving my 'treat drinkies' for then. Wish me luck! xx

    You'll feel so proud of yourself when you wake up in the morning! AF brings on a lovely, warm smug feeling I find;). Go for it. Lots of us will be joining you myself included!
