    Good Luck!
    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.

    By the way, if you're looking for relaxation that doesn't involve calories the new Coldplay Album is totally chill out.....sleeping-in-hammock.gif

    Good morning all :hello:

    Shaggy well done on the weight loss...

    Thank you sukeybo and maman for your comments on the Sorelle and becks blue placebos :) Im happy to continue with this until the habit breaks, if it does...

    Debay - I hope you can get hold of a bottle to try and see the difference :)

    satchmo1 - try and be strong...can I just share a regret I have when my two were battling. I have one with (AS) Asperghers Syndrome (DS1) and one without (DS2) , I always tried to make DS2 understand the problems of communication DS1 had...but I went the other way and made DS2 feel he had no hope of ever being understood :( I should have taken his side more often and ignored the AS's behaviour...DS2 now tells me how sad this made him but because of his nature he never shared this as he always appeared to be a very happy child - its amazing what comes out around the dinner table now we are all adults together :) I make a special effort with DS2 now :)

    Anyways...Im calling in 4/23 for last night. I used a glass of the Rose Sorelle after my 12 mile run (just slipping that in there lol) to celebrate increasing the miles again - tasted mighty good and psychologically hit the spot - yeooooooooooooooo!!!

    Have a great day everyone :j

    Hi All :wave:

    Shaggy - well done on the weight loss & thanks for changing my target :T can you put me down for 4/17 please, last night & tonight, I am declaring early today as I am on strong painkillers from docs for my back so I can't drink anyway :j, blessing in disguise I think & I was in so much pain last night I didnt give wine a thought.

    Well done everyone still on target or trying their best (or forced into it like me) :rotfl:
