    3 AFDs please, Shaggy, thanks.Almost 'treated' myself to white wine last night:), but decided that it would be a better treat to wake up feeling fantastic and proud of myself for being strong, which I do :T:j

    I know exactly what you mean pricey, the difference in how I feel this morning compared to how yuk I felt yesterday is amazing. It's a positive of cutting down that tolerance has definitely weakened. Hope I can remember that on planned drinking nights.

    I wish I felt like you do this morning Pricey - I did 'treat' myself to wine last night and am regretting it this morning :mad:

    Going to do my utmost to resist temptation tonight ;)
  • Morning/afternoon all - its amazing how great you feel once you've managed an AFD isn't it.

    Was up and out early on the van today - OK so I wasn't driving but I could have been and that always makes me worry as I usually drink late after DD is vamooshed.

    But nice clear head and a happy face was mine.

    Hugs to all that need them :D

    Heading into the weekend and I'm working all weekend. I've given myself a couple of free evenings over the month but I'm not planning on drinking this weekend. We'll see how that pans out - best laid plans and all that.

    My tolerance is so much lower too - thanks for mentioning it Maman - good point.

    I'll be joining you in resisting the temptation tonight sukeyboo :)

    Hugs chaps - off to do some early shopping and avoid those bouncy into the trolley bottles of wine!

    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.
