15/10 AFDs please
Thanks for the good wishes. Like @sukeyboo, I set a low target compared with others but I never wanted to give up alcohol so I'm pleased with my half a month. The difference this thread has made is that I no longer drink too much and do stupid embarrassing things, don't have hangovers and save loads of money!😁 Thank you @cathybird.👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼8 -
