    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.

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

    Such a shock. As I get older I think I've seen everything. This makes me realize I haven't :(

    I know that it's early but posting 20/23 for tonight please. I am going out but driving so confident that I won't drink. Anyway, to make target I am only allowed one more non-AF day which will be tomorrow probably.

    Thinking about April's target and not too confident as looking to go away for 14 nights all-inclusive. However, I am pledging 20 days AF for April and we will see how I go. Flipping it that is still 10 days that I can drink and I have been doing ok with only drinking 1 night per week unless away or special occasion so hoping I can do. I will aim for 3 AF days each week that I am away :D

    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. :(

    Welcome :) Losing weight is one of my motivations. Try apple juice with soda water as an alternative. It is surprisingly wine-like ;)

    I fail every month too :rotfl: ...BUT, we try and that is commendable! I don't want to lower my target, I want to reach a high one :)

    Shaggy, 1 more for me this month please and 20 for April xx
