Well done for resisting cuppa, your list is so familiar!

I had a letter from the taxman too td, mine said I owed them £1.85 and they would gather it through the year!:rotfl:Sending you sympathetic hugs and congratulations on your AF total.

4 AFDs for September and 2 for the SNC please.

Afternoon all

I amazingly made it to be AF last night, so 5 please Shaggy

I was upset about something and nothing(hormonal) and I had a nice cold can of lager in the fridge - my thought process was that I can't just have 1 can of lager, so I then thought I would have a large vodka to cheer me up, then thought I would not get to my 5 AF days...After that, I just had a cry and felt better!!
Went to bed at 8.45, even thou the feeling had passed by 7

Very similar to Cuppa!!

openscreen - keep reading and posting on here, it really does give you motivation

It's been an interesting evening. DH has decided he needs to lose a few pounds to make sure he can get into a particular suit for a wedding we're going to next month. He told me this morning (when said suit trousers were very tight around the waist) he wasn't going to drink this evening. Then wine o'clock arrives and he's reaching for a bottle!;) I could see him wrestling with his conscience willing me to say something! He ended up having half a bottle but I could see him sipping slowly. To be fair he never drinks to excess but he does like a drink every night. He tells himself he drinks half a bottle a night but I know that creeps up to a bottle some nights and he knows it too.

It does me good to know that I've been there and come out the other end!! It can be done.:)

5AFDS for September and 3 for the SNC please.

Not a good night for me last night :mad: DH was late home and I had a run in with DD, so instead of coming on here and staying away from the drink I had a G&T which led to another and another so I am feeling very cross with myself today and have a banging headache to go with it.

I have got up and put the rest of the bottle up in the loft where I can't get it so there will be no repeat tonight!

Hope everyone else is doing ok
