Ah bless you, my OH can be like that too. Hates it if I see something through as then he can't crow about my failure! However, this time he is being very supportive (not sure what he's up to)! Anyway, you are doing fab and just keep telling yourself that
Right, must go get ready for my night out! Have a lovely Saturday evening everyone :j

12/22 AF for me now, and I didn't feel tempted this evening, which is progress.
I ran 5k in the local ParkRun this morning, a NY resolution and one I couldn't contemplate if I was hung over. The fact that I was almost the last one to finish is neither here nor there, and gives me plenty of room for improvement over the coming months.
Hugs all round, for all the great posts, and lots of AF achievements. xxWhat would you get if all you got was what you were thankful for?0
