The Giving Up/ Cutting Down alcohol support thread - number 13

shaggydoo

Morning :hello:

2 more AFDs for Sunday and Monday and 1 more Llb lost making 9 Llbs :j This is getting exciting now lol - I've lost all my 2013 weight gain and am back to my December 2012 weight. And there is still 3 and a half months until our hols.

Calling in very early but 31/31 please Shaggy (& congrats on your AF & weight loss) Hey Alex done it again
Had a bit of a think & going to give it a go on my own (but fully intend to keep hovering in the back ground) The support on here is fantastic but I always remember a comment made the end of January along the lines of If things are so much better without alcohol why would you want to drink? Well I really don't want one & Im finding that the only time Im thinking about it is to remind myself to post on here.
Wishing you all well on your AF targets for April lets see if I can do it without the smileys lol

Good Luck! And pop back every once in awhile to let us know how you're getting along.

Managed last night on nothing stronger than soda water, which wouldnt have happened a year ago. I know I dont post often on here, but I was going to not update at all this month. I currently have someone trolling me around the boards and its been going on in one form or another since around Christmas and there's currently some debate going on in another section of this site as to whether by sharing stuff about my life I actually deserved, if thats the right word to be trolled like this.

Ive spoken to few people offline about any struggles I had re alcohol and Im aware that someone only needs to look at my posting history to add this to the list of other insults that are currently doing the rounds, Im over 40, single, I have pets and I used to suffer from work related stress.

Anyhow, I figure that it's just words on a screen and it won't stop me posting. Very likely to be a long term user in another guise, Im certainly not the first person to be picked off and Im sure I wont be the last.

Just that sometimes, it takes a lot for people to go on any thread and say, Im struggling with this. You dont reckon that there's someone out there who wants to call you names over it.

Not the way Id behave on a forum even if I didnt care for someone. Anyway, its a new month, good luck everyone, hope you all meet your targets.

Ignore them. There are some right nutters on MSE (and of course some great posters too :T ) and they should be pitied. Well that's my humble opinion.

Change your user name if you think you can be identified in RL - you will need a new e mail address however.

No more than Id be identified anywhere else I am online. As I said in the thread that was gathering pace last night Im a fitness instructor, my details have been posted on many a forum with more information than is on here, because on some forums, they make you post with your first and last name visible.

It's just a bit odd that you can get on someone's nerves so much that they leave you alone for months and then start a massive campaign to troll you off the site. If all they can do is call me mentally ill because I suffered from work related stress and laugh at me because I'm single, I pity them.

Particularly as it's very likely to be a regular forum user posting with various sockpuppet alter egos. To the people who think I made myself a sitting target because of anything I've shared on here, if it wasn't me, it would have been someone else and at least the people who came out the woodwork last night and made it very clear they dislike me have said it now and they can give a massive swerve to anything I post or put me on ignore. Such is the internet, these things happen.

Anyway, thank you. Onwards and upwards.

Congratulations to all those that met (and in several cases exceeded) their targets last month.

Shaggy - you have done amazingly well with both the AF's and the weight loss - well done :T.
I am declaring early for tonight at 1/12 AFD's.

Good luck to all for the new month

I like your attitude Pauline. There are some really obnoxious people on the boards, I'm so delighted that I don't know people like that in RL. But on THIS THREAD you'll only meet lovely, supportive people. Stick with us.:D
