    Sorry all - I fell of the wagon this weekend - just cold and tired of being cold. Still on 15/30 so I'm going to miss target - hopefully I can still earn more smileys.

  • Joanne don't be hard on yourself because the main thing is that you haven't given up.


    Everyone seems to be doing really well for not giving up the fight.


    18/31 please. This weekend went by without a hitch which I found strange - not that I'm knocking it mind you. My husband has gone without a drunken ear bashing for 3 weekends now, he doesn't seem to be drinking as much either.

    18/31 AFDs tonight. An excess of chocolate though.
    What would you get if all you got was what you were thankful for?

    But you're here and still posting, so you're way ahead of the game anyway. If your target hadn't been ambitious, in other words - easily do-able, there wouldn't be any point to it. Aiming as high as you can is brilliant. Don't beat yourself up; you're doing great.


    18/31 please, Shaggy.
    Better is good enough.

    14/27 for me please.
    Can't believe how well everyone is doing, even those who have a had a wee blip. Keep it up.
    I am aiming for the dry January challenge I just moved the dates a bit - there was no way I was having a four day holiday from work and not drinking - it just wasn't going to happen. So I am hoping I can keep up my dry spell until and including 4th Feb. I honestly cannot remember the last time I even went for 14 days without a drink so am feeling very proud of myself. Though, I do have the occasional 'devil on my shoulder whisper' well I've done 14 days so I've proved I can do it if I try so I might aswell have a drink now!! Naughty me! Luckily I haven't listened to that devil so far. Still really hoping to complete 31 days on the trot.
    Well done everyone :)
