    Yesterday passed with another AF day despite a VERY boozy dinner party at ours where i stuck to my AF beers. As everyone got louder and more drunk i just wanted them to shut up or ideally go home! Today is our "out with the boys" evening which I've skipped for the last 2 weeks to avoid temptation as if there is a day i'd waiver it would be today. Calling in early for tonight so thats me 20/31 AF  :)  Thanks Cathybird. Well done everyone. Lots of targets being hit or getting near.

    Well done smushesma👏🏼. Of course you should claim it they all count😀
    ManPants I've experienced similar boozy dinner parties since I started cutting down. It's sobering (I use the word advisedly) to think that I would once have been one of the loudest😕. Enjoy your "boys" evening I'm sure you'll have a great time drinking AF beers (much better than they used to be) and looking forward to a hangover free tomorrow.😀
