    Well done on the weight loss Shaggy!!
    I am losing weight now, doing the fasting thing and not drinking - it all helps!
    Unfortunately I have had to buy another dress to wear to my sisters wedding, as my original one is too big now!!
    Thankfully, I buy monsoon, from ebay lol ;)

    Up to 7AF now, not one drop has passed my lips all weekend - mind you, felt like I had a hangover this morning, must have been the cloudy lemonade!!!

    mackeroo - can I go for the full monty again please, ty

    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.

    What a great problem lol :D I'm enjoying wearing lots of clothes I haven't been able to wear for about a year or more - so nice and so money saving! It's like being reaquainted with old friends. I am now able to wear a pair of jeans that I loved. :)

  • Mackeroo - can I join the SNC this week please.

    My weekend went to plan. I drank, but sensibly. Not doing too well on my total for November yet though, so a concerted school night effort might help!

  • Hi all, not been here for a while due to busy RL :j. Anyway, wine drinking is starting to get too often again :o, so please can you add me to the list for this month, Shaggy? Please put me down for 26 AFDs, thanks.

    I hope everybody is OK? Two of my 3 DDs are now at uni, so I think I've been feeling 'allowed' to over-indulge in wine, resulting in feeling completely guilty and messy, so pulling myself back up again now. I have a big weekend coming up, DD1's 21st birthday celebration, and she is coming back from her year's studying in Australia for a couple of weeks before going back again. :cool: I feel rather overwhelmed with the DDs having their own busy lives, my own work, DH is away all week and comes back at weekends ..... so really going to make an effort now. Sorry about the ramble :o
  • 1 AFD please
