The Giving Up/ Cutting Down alcohol support thread - number 12

Gosh Lilith, that must be a lot to take in. It must have been hard for your mum. Hope it gives you the strength to do what you had already resolved to do. x

Tonight makes 15 AFD. I had Becks Blue last night and quite enjoyed it. Nice to enjoy a drink without feeling tipsy!

Try the one from Asda 4 for £1, I like it better than Becks with a dash of lime

Big hugs to you Lileth - that must gave been one emotionally draining weekend. Thank goodness that you and your mum were able to talk together and that you know the truth about your Dad. More of an incentive for you I should think. Take care and look after yourself.

I am not AF tonight - I've had a couple og glasses of wine with dinner but will do the SNC and get on the wagon.

Thanks all, is good to be back home with my partner and will have an early night as didn't sleep well last night. Had a fleeting moment of wanting some wine and then realised how stupid that sounded to myself

My mum had packed various food into a bag for me to bring home (she always does this lol) and inside was a couple of bars of Bourneville chocolate - had one of those and that has helped a bit lol.

Hope everyone is well, thanks for all the support x

Hi Everyone
No more AF's to report, but pleased to say i went easy on the vino last night, had glass and a half and another glass this eve, will pour the remainder down the sink to avoid the temptation tmro night.
Due to a number of things in RL next week i wont join the SNC but still happy to run it, but again my scores sheet may not appear as regular as usual. I promise that normal service will resume the following week.

Count me in for the SNC again please Mackeroo and thanks for doing these. It is great to have a short term goal.

This was the first one I have actually completed. Used to join in a long time ago but never completed one!
