    Disappointing for you, Maman, not to score your cat.


    Thanks for your kind words cuppa and your commiserations HB.:)


    Smiley cat day today!:D


    7 AFDs please Shaggy


    Disappointingly the scales are showing a gain today. It's not all down to the empty calories in alcohol as I know I've eaten out a lot since I last weighed 4 weeks ago BUT I'm going AF tomorrow which for a Friday is unusual for me. I'm putting it on here to strengthen my resolve. Back tomorrow.;)

    8/13 for me for last night please Shaggy.


    I am out tonight and planning to drink but will be with Maman in making it an unusual Friday AF (hopefully) to make up for it. Still on target to make my total before I go on hols next weekend.


    P.S. Had a great result at SW weigh in last night, no doubt helped by the cutbacks in alcohol consumption - lost 3lbs this week, which bearing in mind I am aiming at a stone in total is a very good achievement! Just hoping I can enjoy my hols without undoing all the good work.
    What goes around comes around.....I hope!

    I had a couple of drinks last night. Less than I might have drank before but still I had thought of not drinking. So guess that means not drinking tonight or Sunday night. I will decide later. Hope everyone else has a good day - TGIF��

    Hang on in there, Maman. You're normally so self-disciplined but it sounds as though we have this is common - once we stray off the straight and narrow getting back on it takes a special effort. Congrats on the smiley cat!

    18/30 please, Shaggy.
    Better is good enough.
