12/24 please

Welcome back from hol Mamam.

Was reading previous posts. I do contribute to the weekend tumbleweed effect-but really hope this weekend is different.

No drinking lunches for the foreseeable.

While I had a lovely break last week it also feels good to be back in my normal routine. This week, I'll get to target and plenty of month left to add to it.:)

Freedom beckons - welcome to the post! As you've seen there is lots of help here, you've made a fantastic start. It's a big decision you have taken, but stay in touch (even if it does seem like a tumbleweed day). Somehow putting things in writing helps and there is always someone with some good advice on this page.

Can I call in early for tomorrow night (!) and go for 4/5 AF days please.

I'm hungover and thinking about my drinking. I decided to take a look at this year month by month compared with last year and see what I could learn. Then I thought be brave be open and share on here too.

23 More days this year than last year already
If I set a really low December target I can hit target more months - probably not the right takeaway message
Targets high low and TF can all go sailing past with me!
I scrape feantically toward a target in a rush at the end of whatever period - excitement perhaps?
I haven't exceeded a target in this time even with a new badge to earn from the amazing Shaggy
Wanting the banana badge for the year really made it happen for me for 3 months - then I derailed myself. it seemed too hard to be going for it for another 3 months
If I were a sensible, consistent person I could have hit 150 with a target of 13 each month and 7 at Christmas
My best months this year have also been my best since I moved to London in the 1990s.
Builders are bad for my drinking!
