    17/24 here including 10 days in a row.

    Doing better than expected this month so I'm on course to beat my target. It does help being flat broke at this time of year so I don't feel like spending money on going out on these cold nights.

    I'm 20/31 too! Although for, being AF means I've been stuffing my face with anything edible. I fear the bathroom scales...:eek:

    19/31 AFDs tonight. I've just had a yummy hot chocolate.
    What would you get if all you got was what you were thankful for?

    For anyone who's surprised by how much more they're eating while doing Dry January - don't worry. You're not damaging your system, you're topping up your sugar levels because your body is used to absorbing a shedload of calories from the booze. If you try to tackle more than one bad habit at a time, your chance of failing skyrockets.

    Just be amazed at how well you're doing on the booze front and enjoy the chocolate/crisps/whatever, and be proud of what you've achieved so far.

    Slightly worried we haven't heard from Piggles for a day or three.

    21/31 please, Shaggy.
    Better is good enough.
