I was described today as "that slim lady"!! I don't feel slim, but I have just had to buy a smaller sized jeans and bra, so I guess it's true!
What would you get if all you got was what you were thankful for?3 -

well done @Season_of_Mist
I have found that my year break broke the habit of it being my evening default and it has significantly decreased how much I have when I do drink.
11 for me please - out tonight but I volunteered to drive.

It will be 10/21 for me today please.
Well done @Season_of_Mist👏.
And well done @redofromstart from having a year break👏.
You must both feel so much better for this?
I'm finding that even having a long stretch of AF days helps with being able to continue too.
And....it always helps if there isn't a bottle opened needing to be polished off 😆.
And that kinda prevents me from opening one in the first place.

What a lovely compliment @satchmo1 .I'm sure all the calories you've saved on AF days has helped. 👍

@maman oh yes, calories saved by being AF, and by not having that "sod-it" calorific snack
12/28 for me today please.
Had a very informative phone chat with my haematologist's clerk this morning, who said there were no results showing on the nationwide NHS database yet (after my last test) but there was a note to arrange with GP for an ultrasound… I never knew they were so "joined up", did anyone else? (Not joined up enough to enable me to have all the tests at the hospital of choice, though.) So that's tomorrow's task.
What would you get if all you got was what you were thankful for?5 -
8/25 this evening please 🙂
