Do you want to join what is left of the August challenge? You just pick the number of AF days you would like to aim for or you can just be TF - target free!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.0 -

Oh yes, it definitely will! 10 weeks is a great acheivement but there will always be days when it's easier than others. Sometimes bells ring just because that's what bells do!0 -
10 weeks is a great achievement Elantan :j I guess it just takes a long time before the habit is broken.
Going for AF today so bought some Alcohol Free Becks for my 6pm bell timeNice cool lager shandy guilty free
Did make me laugh when the girl said she had to check I was 25 even for alcohol free. Nice to do another shop that isn't loaded with vodka and wine and soooo much cheaper :j
29th Feb Quit Day :j0
