Thank you @maman, I think I will try this. Hoping / intending an AFD today but might have to avoid shops.maman said:Not sure what your triggers are @maggiem but I find that setting a low target works for me. Why not try something like 7 or 8 for October? That way you'll get a few emojis to motivate you and the good feeling if you manage to beat it.3 -
That's a good idea @maggiem. If having booze in the house calls to you then not buying any is the best plan. I'm the same with crisps! 🤣
13/10 AFDs please @cathybird
I'm determined to get the one man band emoji (you too @sukeyboo🤔) and, as there's an odd day of September left next week, we should be fine. 🤞🏼

6/15 please for today Wednesday. Helped a bit by torrential rain when I was wavering and thinking of popping out to buy wine. Daft really because once that passed I was fine. Need more days like this.
