    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.

    Morning everyone,

    Well, even though I didn't manage a AFD yesterday (which I knew I wouldn't as we were out at an Indian restuarant) - I did manage to cut back and only had two half pints of lager - I would normally have had at least another one or two more :D

    Probably won't be AF over the weekend, but again I will try and cut down - this thread is just what I needed, not only to help me have more AF dyas but also to make me more aware of the amount of alcohol I have on the days I choose to drink.

    Have a great weekend all :T

    You're right sukeyboo, that's one of the spin-offs of cutting down that I'm pleased with too.

    Just wanted to say :T to Shaggy. Every day I enjoy the lovely smiley messages which mask your own AFDs just sneaked in at the top. I hope the thread helps you as much as it does us.

    Still no 41:(, hope you're lurking.

    I am going for another AF tonight. I have work tomorrow and it is likely to be busy so that is a good incentive!

    Also, I woke at 6am today and couldn't get back to sleep, which is very unlike me! so being tired will help :)

    Have a good weekend everyone, AF or otherwise ;)

    7/25 AFDs, and a short (15 minutes) run before dinner, makes me a virtuous Satchmo

    Feeling drained with the canonball emotions, so I'm off to bed now. Night all xx
    What would you get if all you got was what you were thankful for?

    Well, Saturday already!

    I had a glass of wine on thursday, just to finish off the tail end of the bottle with DH, so I didn't do the full monty SNC inthe end.

    But final scores are in and we have
