    Can I join please? I'm slipping back into using alcohol as a way of coping and I don't like it. Two bottles of Prosecco down this evening and I'm now feeling down. Haven't had a chance to catch up with this thread completely but really want to stop drinking and lose weight. I know it's my own fault and only I can change it but it's hard. :(

    Shout out a target for March if you want. 6 days left.
    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.

    Hi Shaggy,

    I'm back in the ring...

    Please would you put me down for an April target of 15. My plan is Monday to Thursdays AF except for 6/4, 16/4 and a just in case night for a friend's birthday. I want to take the debating society out of it. I shall ask myself if it's Monday to Thursday and if it is then no wine for me. Simples!! :cool:

    Thanks for keeping score and well done on your weightloss!
    WBF xx

    Welcome Dizzy Imp. You will find everyone is pretty friendly on here and nobody judges anyone.

    19/23 for tonight please. I'll have to add up April's target as thinking about booking a holiday so need to account for that.

    Thanks for the welcome - looking forward to this challenge! :D

    We're away house hunting this weekend which is quite stressful with all the kids in tow but I'm aiming to hit a large percentage of AFDs in April.

    Can I start April with 24/30 please?

    15 please, Shaggy, thanks

    I understand about your little cry - I cannot believe it either. What is happening to our world?
