Hi Heath480
I think it is really nice of you to check in and let us know how things are going with you. I wasn't on here until 2007 so don't count as one of the old gang but have always been interested in your updates and posts - great to hear you're doing so well!

I wasn't around then either, but it's lovely to know that people on this thread have made it!
JimmyC, I couldn't have stopped without some additional support, and the temptation in the early days was quite difficult. You sound as though you're doing fine, though. Keep it up!
7/30 please, Shaggy.Better is good enough.0 -

Hi Heath - I'm not a regular poster by still a reader of the thread.
Ditto:I don't want to go back to my old drinking life and thus staying sober is still the most important thing in my life. If I pick up a drink, my past becomes my future so it's important that I stay booze free.
Glad you're well.0 -
Morning :hello:
2 more AFDs for Monday & Tuesday.
Must get back on the dieting wagon too much of this :EasterBungoing onShaggyxWhat 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.0 -

Hope everyone had a good weekend enjoying glorious weather. I didn't have AF days although I never do at weekends so Monday was only change from regular week. All very moderate. What pleases me is that I can be with a group of people (as I was over Easter) in a bar or restaurant and I'm not always wanting my glass refilled or first to finish a round. And I'm happy to make a for a coffee shop at lunchtime instead of a bar. All changes thanks to this great thread.
Got back yesterday evening and stayed AF. before I'd have kidded myself it was still a holiday. So including today:
4 AFDs please Shaggy.0
