    Stayed AF yesterday and declaring early for today so 3/15 please. 

    I totally agree Wanna Bee Free, I had just got to the ever so slightly smug I can do this, declaring early maintaining enough AFDs to be happy with that when December arrived coinciding with the end of a diet. I decided to celebrate the relaxation but then just kept going and think I drank nearly every day in December. So easy to go back up to a drink before with nibbles and then half or slightly more than half if I am being honest of a bottle of wine. Hopefully I have reset now and have11 months to make good habits stick - although lockdown again isn't making it easier! 

    Hope your head is better Annie. I was sad to read of the splitting up Manpants, hope you are managing to move on from that. Let us know how things are going.
