And again for me too. 6 days AF .... (edited to add: sorry, I realise this big grin might make me seem a little bit too pleased with myself but I'm suppose I am rather chuffed I've managed this!) x

Thanks for your words of encouragement mrsrainman I tend to have a bit of an all or nothing attitude which is something that has hindered me before in both cutting back on the booze and on losing weight...1 glass of wine drunk? I might as well have 4! Eaten a 'naughty' dessert? Might as well carry on for the week...I am sure that mindset is quite common and its something I must look out for.

Anyway, today was booze free so 3/20 AFD for me so far Think tomorrow may not be though but going to make up for it with a sober weekend which doesn't often happen...

Day 5 AF and 2 for the SNC please guys.

Was wandering around work tonight (supermarket) and when I see wine on the shelf it usually makes me want to buy some at the end of the evening. Tonight I felt disconnected from it which is quite a relief.

I don't think you should apologise for being pleased with yourself! Well done. I find it hard on here sometimes to be sure the words I write will read ok, but figure people will probably work out over time what I'm like. Sometimes I worry a well done will sound patronising or as if I know any of the answers but then I thought it might just be taken how I meant it so get over myself.

I stayed AF in spite of being offered a taste of a polish spirit by one of my week night housemates. I felt quite proud of myself for politely saying no without reasons.

I slept much better last night but have woken up too early so I thought I'd post on here and then go for a run. I'm starting Week 6 of my 9 week couch to 5k app and ran for 20 minutes on Saturday. So I too am feeling pretty chuffed with myself. I'd better run carefully this morning (pride comes before a fall ).

Have a good day everyone
