A belated welcome Grey_Pilgrim. Wishing you good luck with the weight loss and cutting down on alcohol. It sounds as though you have been part of this community before so you know it works. X3 -

Into the teens today with 13/25 for me.
Very enlightening @robm99
Welcome @Greying_Pilgrim - I'm often bemoan to myself how quickly the lbs pile on if I drink - not just from the empty alcoholic calories, but also the pacman eating.What would you get if all you got was what you were thankful for?5 -

Nothing to see here, move along.4 -
Morning everyone!
Today is 17/25 for me please and 13 days in a row without an alcoholic drink, which is the longest I have achieved in years! I am definitely sleeping better and feel like it has helped with feelings of anxiety so I'm keen to keep going.
I was also hoping to lose a few pounds by cutting back but so far the scales have stubbornly remained the same
Hope everyone has a lovely weekend and thanks again @cathybird for keeping track of everythingDebt free November 20225 -
Good afternoon everyone.
I am 19/25 please cathybird. Thank you. X
I was talking to my sister in law yesterday and she mentioned that she had treated herself to a gin advent calendar. She said: "I thought of you when I saw them, you should get one". They are in Amazon's Black Friday deals apparently. Er no 😲! I know we are not particularly close but really? I think when we first met years ago she had me pegged as a lady who likes her booze and that hasn't really changed 😕.4 -
13/12 please3
