6/31

Declaring 6 tonight. I must admit after falling off the wagon on Sunday I nearly didn't post. So glad I did. No judgements and its made me more determined.

Hi Muser, I agree, we're really lucky that posting here comes with positive rreponses rather than judgement. I kind of see here as an honest space unlike family and friends. And I think it was Graeme on here recently talking about the chicken and the egg about people posting more or less and the link with drinking more or less. These days I tend not to post if I haven't good news to share as I don't want to bring negativity on here so when I disappear that's usually a bad sign.

:j Pippi, welcome back and good luck this month! It sounds like you are in a very different life now, I was surprised you mentioned the younglings as with all your studies and how you post I didn't think you were old enough!

I had great intentions last week that went out of the window and I have not achieved my monthly goal for the last 3 months in a row
so I want to turn things around. I'm going to be AF again tonight.

There's nothing wrong with enjoying being AF!! Aside from the physical and financial benefits I love the feeling of achievement and being in control.:)


Keep it up Chardonnay, you'll enjoy that uncharted territory, a whole new world.

Thanks Maman, it's an adventure really!

7/31 please Shaggy!

Hello all

7/30 for me hope you're all fine and rested, if you're not hop on in and have a coffee. WBF - you're right about the honesty and friendship here.

As to not being old enough for kids, you angel, when I split from my ex-hub I chose studying rather than a job so I could be about for the wee ones. But as with everything I took that way further than most sane folks. They're both at uni now, and I am indeed very old......scary! I'm stupidly young in my head

Have a great day everyone. My strategy today is to keep busy.

Morning, 7/31 for me so far. Keeping busy so far this month not thinking about the booze. There are 5 cans of lager that have been sitting in my fridge since 22/9 and I haven't though about opening one at all. Not so long ago they wouldn't have lasted 3 days!
