    I've got a holiday in 3 weeks too mackeroo, and hoping to keep all drinking and eating in check until then. I feel I've relaxed a bit too much this last week, probably more on the eating front than the drinking. Hoping to get a couple more AF days in before Sepember comes.

    Its nice having something to look forward to isnt it? And with all our weight loss we will look AMAZING in the pics ;)

    Good Evening...lots of new faces on this thread so a big `hello` to everyone!

    Just sneaked in to say well done to everyone on here ...even just having that one less glass of an evening is brilliant! & so many having regular AF days! thats great!

    An update on me....still totally AF & will be 2 years on sunday...how time flies:D

    ...I am however still addicted to Roses Lime Cordial & fizzy water:o:o (I reckon I`ve retrained my brain to see that as my `alcohol`)

    Take care Everyone.

    Angiexx

    Good to see you SSA and :T:T:T on your 2nd anniversary when it comes!!!! Hope you bought shares in Roses Lime Juice;)

    You're so right about all cutting-down counting. I was only thinking today that despite probably calling in at 14 AF for this month, lots of the 'drinking' days will just be the odd glass with a meal out. But we have to be honest on here. If we're not honest to our virtual friends (and ourselves of course) what's the point?

    Nice to 'see' you again Angie - 2 years teetotal is fantastic:T.

    We were AF last night as well - just didn't occur to me to have a drink. This afternoon we have a BBQ but as it's with the scouts it won't be a boozy affair!
    Trying to keep in budget.

    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.

    BTW, I hope you had a good time in Bath, or does that seem ages ago?

    It does seem lke ages ago (after a whole week back at work) and it was only last week :rotfl:

    It was fab and I would recommend it to anyone. The Roman Baths were AMAZING and Bath itself is posh so lots of good shopping. Plenty of good places to eat. Went on a open top bus ride too and went to the American Museum. Didn't do a tour to Stonehenge though. Maybe next time.

    Yes it was great :T
