    Good to see you back MissP, I'm always uneasy when you don't post that something may be up. Well done on taking that step, hope it helps.

    Sorry no AFness here, gave myself a day off but purely for socialising purposes. I've been sensible and definitely no chance of being hungover. . Will be back on wagon tomorrow. Well done everyone who's been AF today.:T

    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.

    Hello lovely guys! :A

    I've been AF for 6 months and 2 days! Very proud of myself and a whole half year feels like a real achievement for me. I've faced all sorts of barriers and challenges through the 6 months and so many opportunities to celebrate/drown em and stood my ground and stayed free from it!


    Bearacus - way to go :T! 100 days is fantastic - are you feeling better for it?

    Miss P - well done to you and be very proud of yourself for being so brave - good luck ;)

    Congratulations to you all for being here, posting and achieving.
    Keep looking after yourselves and remember how special you are as individuals. Nothing is unachieveable.

    :);) AF since 10.04.11 :):D

  • 100 days! wow Bearacus you legend!!

    8/20 for me please Shaggy and 2/4 for the SNC!

    if this was the weight loss thread i would have had to report an increase!! simply due to alcohol! i think i am going to have to aim for a dry November boo hiss:-(
  • 8 for me thanks Shaggy

    I've just read an article about alcohol by a social anthrpologist on the BBC website which is quite interesting. Not sure I completely agree with her but food for thought:
    Viewpoint: Is the alcohol message all wrong?
    Many people think heavy drinking causes promiscuity, violence and anti-social behaviour. That's not necessarily true, argues Kate Fox.
