  • Target for 2023 - 240 please
    Nothing to see here, move along.
  • Hmm watching all of the 2023 targets come in - looks like I will have to be more ambitious in order to keep up! But I will stick with a target that I know I can achieve with a mind to beat it decisively….
  • Hello.. hope everybody has had a lovely festive period! 

    I am on day 15/20 today after too much partaking.. won't meet my target for this month but intend on starting the year by doing dry January and hopefully getting my first ever gold star! 

    Please could I also join next year's challenge with a target of 300 days? 

    Thanks @cathybird and everyone!

    @AllNightDiner I say this every year but it's really not a competition, there's no keeping up per se, everyone's just trying to work towards whatever target they find helpful :) As a rough rule of thumb it's a good idea if people take the monthly target they feel comfortable with & multiply it by 12, then aim for that, or something a bit lower if as you say you want to beat your target decisively, which I think is a really good way of approaching it xx :)
