  • Morning Glenda, I’m impressed by your very early declaration! I’ll follow your lead.

    I took me months, years even to declare early. Well done!:T
    Because I didn't trust myself I used to leave posting until just before I went to bed. No longer.:D


    My (potentially very stressful) meeting for tomorrow has been postponed so I'm well on course for my first smiley this week.:)


    6/10 AFDs please Shaggy and 3 for the SNC.

    2/15 and 2 SNC please and super healthy eating too. I know the best advice might be to stop one thing at a time but actually not drinking and eating a restricted diet go together so hoping this joint attack plan will work.

    Exactly what I'm doing. I'm trying to focus on new recipes and what I can eat rather than drinking!

    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.
