    14/15 AFDs - it looks like I'll make my target this month :-)
    What would you get if all you got was what you were thankful for?

    Well I had a drink again tonight. Just one not so big bottle of Belgian lager. I sipped it. I'm quite pleased because the first is usually gulped and the second, third etc go more slowly. Didn't get to a second!:T

    I'm aiming to go until Friday again but as you said, Wanna Bee Free, one day at a time. Hope your dad and sister are feeling better. Bit stressful for you all.

    I packed a lot into this weekend and feel a bit worn out. Fitness wise a walk through the forest and the gym, housework wise, everything you can think of, plus running kids around, shopping etc etc. Now in need of an early night so off to bed already.

    Well done to everyone who has managed to achieve their goals. Good for you.

    Kind regards
    Slowdown:)

    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.

    Hello people:o

    Just read some of this thread and would like to join you all if i may ? I intend to stop drinking pretty much altogether , I don't drink every day mainly at weekends but have drunk for last 3 days yesterday I had a large bottle of lam**ini and 5 cans of strongbow as well :eek:

    To say I didn't feel brill this morning is an understatement :o the other thing is I have cml which when I drink I tend to forget to take my tablets for - This I cannot afford to do .

    I'm hoping to lose weight along the way (2 stone) :( so going to start eating healthier as well . Think i'm gonna take the no pressure option for now and not count .

    sorry for rambling :)
