I've failed miserably since I last posted, had a drink every evening.
You can do it again!
Check in on the forum everyday and it helps motivate & if you can last until 8pm there is no point starting then. Then there is the evening walks! :rotfl:
Chin up Buddy - keep going!

Thanks, I'll get there.
Fortunately, the drinking has mainly been social but I did underestimate just how many excuses I'd have because of Christmas coming up - gone back to wine with dinner every evening.
Whilst I agree regarding the 8pm rule, I have been known to start at midnight before, because I'd declared an AF day on here and technically midnight is tomorrow!2018 totals:

There is a post on my blog that I want everyone here to read.
Could someone pm Graeme and let him know the score. I'd love him on side.

IMO there's a big difference between a social glass with dinner and trying to 'self medicate' with a drink after midnight. Add Horlicks to your shopping list!:rotfl:0 -

Hi all
10/16 AFDs so far. I'm heading out for my birthday tonight (it's my 40th), I will have a few drinks but I can't face ringing in my 40s with a hangover and depression. I promise to come back on here tomorrow with no depressive stories:D.
