    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.

    Can I set a gentle target of 5 for Nov please Shaggy, not doing so well lately but keep popping in so that when the time is right, I won't waste the opportunity to get some good AF days behind me.


    Sorry to hear that Karen:). I think it's a great idea to set an achievable target and then beat it if you can. That's what works for me.


    No drinking planned here today.


    4 AFDs please Shaggy.

    I could not agree more.
  • Hi All

    Had a real wobble on Saturday and went to my bed early to read blogs.

    There wasn't even a good excuse

    a) it was Saturday so why not?
    b) i haven't drunk for 5 weeks so why not?
    c) Haven't stopped running after the kids all week and I deserve a treat?
    d) Its cold and miserable so a glass of wine with a rug on the sofa sounds lovely?

    However, it passed and I am still plodding on - 6/30 for me Shaggy please.

    Thank you to everyone who posts on here, I can't tell you how helpful I find it.
  • Hi,

    4/20 for me, please.

    I think I am back into the swing of not drinking every night. x
