4/27 for me today please.
I've just had a text asking me to have a blood test as my last blood results show I am pre-diabetic, eek! I have lost a stone over the last 12 months, so I can only guess that it's due to going a bit overboard on the Easter Eggs and being less active between January and March - although I averaged 7000 steps per day in April. I have also started Pilates classes again. Once a week in April, and will be twice a week in May, hoping that will rise to 3 times a week in June.What would you get if all you got was what you were thankful for?7 -

Well done on your 19 days. That’s amazing.I have butterflies in the stomach,like before seeing the dentist!Plus tense and restless,while continually seeing a bottle in my mind's eye,and craving it very strongly. Trying to stay busy though concentration is a bit difficult.Fortunately my sons say they are doing a dry May,so no alcohol in sight. Didnt order a bottle fon my Asd@ delivery,so alcohol free home at least for this week. But its a bit hard,.Good job I have to spend a lot of time trying to rejig my budget preparing for any horrendous figure on my new dual fuel new price end of June,and also struggling to lose a little weight despite my Thyroid and my pernicious anaemia actively trying to sabotage me.Lucky to lose 1 lb a month.No wonder I am craving a comfort drink!Live for the moment and plan for the future4 -
