The Cutting Down / Giving Up Booze Thread (Part 14)

Honey Bear, re Nigella, I've always had the impression that she has a massive sweet tooth - even some of her savoury recipes taste sweet.

Thanks everyone for your supportive comments!!

Honey Bear - I do feel better during the day and its so much easier to get things done! Started some simple decorating this week and its good to see something a little more productive being done with my time. ;-) Sugar cravings in the evening are still there but not as intense as they once were.

All in, I feel better overall and am looking forward to getting to 60 days... not to long to go!

Went out with colleagues last night and had a couple of glasses of wine but intend today to be AFD. Must remember this at airport tonight!

Green_Karen

Off the mark with 1/5 AF days.

Off to the Lake District today for a couple of days, this morning is one of those that reminds me what I love about autumn/winter. Cold hard frost and blue sky - gorgeous! Looking forward to sitting in front of log stove and being cosy.

Have a lovely time Green Karen!

I've got a couple of her books (from the late 1990s!) and everything I've made from them has turned out really fantastically well BUT I agree with you, if the secret is adding sugar in one form or another, or a load of fat, she's not that clever. As it happens, mostly, I don't cook sweet things because they're too much temptation.

It's a huge milestone, although on the day itself it won't feel very different which is always a disappointment. However, it's a significant one in terms of knowing we can do this now - the first couple of months are tough but they are do-able for most of us if we stick at it. Go One Day! :T :j :T

6/30 please, Shaggy.
