    I am declaring early tonight - I stuck to sparkling water in the pub tonight so was pleased to have a booze-free Friday; very unusual for me! Thanks Green Karen, I'm sure you're right and I will get less achey.

    3/14.

    Also declaring early this evening. :) I'm not feeling particularly good which is usually when I end up drinking even though it is when I ought not to be, so the fact I've not given into temptation has actually cheered me up somewhat.

    I decided early in the day to not be AF tonight as I am aiming to do another 3 in a row and as I am off Fri, Sat and Sun, I thought I wouldn't last until next week so better to drink on a non working night... I know... excuses excuses :/

    I don't know what the weekend will bring but aiming for SNC next week = 3 or 4 in a row :) If I manage 3 in a row again, that will be brilliant :)

    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.

    Hope you managed to stick to it. Brilliant that you were aware of your feelings and that you knew that alcohol wouldn't of changed anything long term. You must be mega proud of yourself.
