    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.

    Wahh - this thread has made me shiver. I enjoy a beer or two (or three or four) on an evening, and considerably more on a weekend! I have tried the alcohol free days but then my sleep becomes interrupted and I'm grumpy the next day...I do stick to less (two-four cans of lager) during the working week though and don't find it inhibits my performance at all...

    No more AFD's to add but just a single glass of wine again last night. I think that next month I might revise my target down and carry on aiming for less units when I do drink.

    When I first joined this thread I was sometimes of the opinion that once I had 'ruined' the chance of an AFD I might as well make the most of it and drink whatever I liked :( but my mindset has changed now and even though I am not having as many AFD's I am drinking a lot less overall (which is what I really wanted to achieve)

    Have a great weekend everyone :j
