    Back eating small amounts of chocolate but have upped my exercise which seems to have done the trick - 3 Llbs lost :)

    I was wondering how the chocolate thing was going, so thanks for that. 3lbs is a lot in one hit, well done. Do you think that was entirely down to chocolate abstinence?

    I hope your OH made it safely home, Green Karen.

    30/30 please, Shaggy.
    Better is good enough.

    Yes he did thanks, he wasn't coming home he was meeting me for a 4 day break. His mobile phone seems to be the only one that can't get onto a network abroad so he couldn't contact me to meet him, but he found his way :)

    Hi everyone,

    I have been AWOL, had to go away for a week and just didn't have time to even log in! The result, only 2 further days for Sept! Certainly not my best month, but probably 50% better then 18 months ago.
    Shaggy could you set my target at a fairly low 15 again.I'm off next Saturday to Majorca to visit my best friend in the world who I grew up with. She's done very well for herself, so next Sunday I hope to be sipping something cold on her Sunseeker!:D


    Take care everyone.

    Well done to everyone who drank less than they would have done if they hadn't been contributing to the thread for September. Even if it's only one drink less, one evening less on the sauce or whatever, it's progress from mindlessly sloshing it back.

    Missing your cheery updates, Maman. And Satchmo.

    1/31 please, Shaggy.
    Better is good enough.
  • 10/10 for me in September which is definitely 2 more than I'd have had without the thread. Thanks everyone.
