Tonight will be 8/31
Yesterday was a real trial, had my first counselling session and talked about a lot of things I'm not comfortable with. I had less than 4 hours sleep on Sunday night and the same last night so I feel like a zombie right now, but the strongest drink I've had is a cup of tea with two sweeteners in, so I am feeling rather proud.0 -

Hi Chez, glad you found us here - jump right in!
Jak, I am thrilled for you, really well done.
I have had very loud bells here tonight, and would have had a glass of wine if it weren't for the SNC!
Now I've finished eating and everything's tidied up I'm declaring today AF! I've put 4 francs in my sealed pot and won't have any alcohol. In fact I want an early night tonight so it's tea all the way.
So 7 for January please shaggy and 2 for the SNC please Mackeroo.Trying to keep in budget.

AF-7/31. =. £7 to cancer research
Didn't sleep well again last night, hope tonight will be a bit better. I am feeling much fresher in the day though.
Someone gave me some bottles of Becks Blue today, I do like them, but I have put them in the cupboard and will put a couple in the fridge to drink on Friday or Saturday. I want to get out of the habit of drinking something that looks like a alcoholic drink every night. So most nights I will have tea or hot chocolate and treat myself to a ginger ale, with ice and lemon or alcohol free lager just at the weekends.
Started the biggest loser at work today, hope cutting the wine will help, I must have been drinking a few days extra calories every week!
Good night everyone
