PLEASE PUT YOUR TARGET AFDs IN A BOLD RED FONT and good luck! (and if I've made any mistakes, don't be shy, please let me know!)
EVERYONE WELCOMEWhat 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 -
Roll up, Roll up it's still not too late to set a target for October

Good Morning, checking in to start OCtober and I have just one day to add please Shaggy - yesterday I was AF but Saturday night I drank too much and felt rough in the morning. I'm OK now, but I feel quite cross that I didn't pace myself.
Anyway, onward and upward.Trying to keep in budget.

Well after achieving the whole of September AF, I drank Saturday and Sunday nights! Oh my, i feel terrible today! Did i really used to walk about like that ALL the time??!! I also gained a couple of pounds which means i will fluff my weigh in tonight and I spent a fortune arggggghhh! I cannot wait to be AF again!0

Two days AF thus far, and one pound lost.
The insiduous thing with alcohol, I think, is not simply the calories, it's that it skewers up your ability to burn calories properly for days afterwards. And for me, wine is the worst. I haven't drank it for a month owing to a particularly nasty hangover, so perhaps that is a good thing.
Good luck to all'We shall not cease from exploration, and the end of all our exploring will be to arrive where we started and know the place for the first time. '

Back here for the October challenge. Could I go TF again please Shaggy. Life's been quite hectic still, but I could do with a chilled week, so I'd like to sign up for the full SNC please too Bearacus. Have no alcohol in the house now, and don't intend to get any for the foreseeable future. So it's only a problem if I go out. Not going anywhere tonight, so that's 1 please Shaggy and Bearacus.LBM Dec 10. Total unsecured debt £41176 :eek: Nov 12 Debt Free Thanks Mum x RIP x

Hello
Been MIA recently as I've been suffering from a horrendous lurgy-virus. On the mend now thankfully but it's been awful.
Still, no boozing!
I finished September on 27 so missed out on the target. I'll do the whole SNC though this week and have set October's target as 29 (I think, I'll read back in a tick and check!). I haven't drunk so far so that's 3 for me this month!Say what you mean.. mean what you say... without being mean.0
