    Evening :hello:

    On 25 AFD until yesterday. I've been in quite a few tempting situations this weekend with food and drink but managed to limit the damage hopefully! The next weigh-in will tell me whether I was successful.

    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.

    Evening all,

    I've still not got in the habit of posting everyday!!! Sorry.

    Anyway, I have no where else to say this or people to whom I can talk at the moment but my husband came home tonight and said that he was going to have to resign on Monday!

    He's been having a really bad time at work for the last 6-12 months and today it all came out in a row with is boss (and owner of the company). So, he thinks that he either has to resign or he will be sacked.

    I am just taking it all in right now, and we will be OK, but I cannot talk to anyone else - I have a good friendship group but until DH has made the break I want to keep it quiet.

    Sorry, just needed to blurt it out and this is the only place online that I feel I have a long term presence in.

    Oh, and tonight has not been AF!

    OMG that's soooooo stressful :eek:

    18/25 for today please. Not going to meet my target this month due to a non-AF Bank Holiday weekend except for today. As I've said before though my alcohol consumption is a lot less when I do drink.

    1 more for me please, Shaggy :)

    The weekend was rather more boozey than I intended and I feel terrible for it, plus I didn't get half as much done as I had hoped and planned... partly due to weather, but largely down to drinking-related tiredness :(

    I am aiming for a SNC this week. It will be my first IF I achieve it. Anyone else want to join me?

    Fru :)
