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 -
Morning all! Just a quick one as off to work.
3/15 AFD! Starting to feel better already.
Can't work out how to put stuff in red yet!0 -

When you are typing your reply - look at the top- in the middle is a capital letter A in blue - tap on the downpointing arrow at the right hand side and a palate of colours comes up - pick red!
Hope that helps and I've updated the chart to include your 3 days:jWhat do we do when we fall? We get up, dust ourselves off and start walking in the right direction again.

Up early today as is funeral today and I have to work 7-11 this morning.
Got drunk last night and ending up being quite nasty to my OH. Poor man went in the pouring rain for an hour just to get away from me. I seem to be going round in circles, I really do. Going to get today over with and then sit and evaluate a little bit I think.

Hope all goes as well as these things can today MissP.:) You've been under lots of pressure lately. I think what happens is you're strong to support your mum then let it go at home so poor MrP suffers. I'm sure he understands.
One tip I used on SW was to know how much wine I could have in a week within my syn allowance and buy just that. I found I wouldn't touch it all week so I had some at weekends or it could work that you only had a little at a time to make it last. I thought it might help your evaluation.0 -
Hope all went well today Miss P x
Well done Misslr, very restrained
melg1973 - I know you have the reassurance now, I am behind the times...when I read the Allen Carr book it said to continue drinking until the end, but agree with others, sounds unlikely you would hurt yourself. Hope it is all going ok
Today will be 5 AF please Shaggy
I had a massive calling last night, wine wed nearly got resurrected - managed to chill with a diet Irn Bru and a bubble bath - my work colleague had my share of wine
Tonight I am taxi driver - off with friends to watch a band, they are delighted I am sober lol
Hope everyone doing ok, and this miserable weather isn't getting you all down x just think, for most, a long weekend off, yahhhh (well, it's normal for me, I only work Tue/Wed/Thu:))
