Well Done you.... That takes some willpower :j:j:jWhat 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 -

Right, back from a week camping in Snowdonia, which may be enough to drive anyone to drink :eek:
Alcohol-wise, it went:
Arrive, put tent up in force ten gale, and monsoon. Had five gins to destress, whilst praying the tent would not be spirited wizard-of-oz-like into the next field. Then, rest of week, had two pints in the local village pub most nights.
However, two pints is an improvement on the five I would have once had :eek:
Now, this week, AF until Fri at least, and now OH and I have stopped the drinking on Sat on account of our weekly weigh-in on Sunday - believe me, alcohol skewers weight loss in a bad, bad way.
In Oct, put me down for 20 AF, and we'll take it from there. Certainly feeling far more clear headed the past month

Hello
I've got a banging headache tonight, and have no plans whatsoever to drink! I'll sign up for the full SNC this week please, and can now report 23 for September (if my dreadful maths is correct!)
I'm very impressed with the sparkling water at the wedding, good work!!Say what you mean.. mean what you say... without being mean.0
