Long time no see..

Its absolutly brilliant to hear from everyone..I dont feel as sheepish knowing i'm not the only one to make a mess of things..And i feel spurred on by those who are setting the standard..(Lisa big congratulations on a year..You have more than earned it).
My problem now is i dont know where to go from here..I have tried and failed at both Abs and Mods..
I told Lisa(Mrs Macks) i wouldnt drink this week and had 2 beers last night that were left in the fridge from weekend...Not a lot i know but i was only on day 2.

Welcome back Macks!

You SAY you have failed at Abs and Mods - but you are back here - doesn't sound like failure to me.
It's only failure when you stop trying!

Best of luck mate - we are all rooting for you!

Macks with two beers that were in the fridge, you were bound to drink them!!!!!!!!! Only two beers, thats winning in my book ...........

Keep winning ........

Love to you and Lisa and the little ones......... BB xx

Okay, Macky baby, now those two beers are gone, so don't go buying any more, love. I'm so happy to see you back. You haven't failed at AB's. You won't fail at that until you stop trying forever. I fell from grace many times before I made it, and I mucked around for several months at a time in between trials. There comes a time when you just do it. I keep praying that this time is the real one for me! Just keep trying little bro'.

Love,:h

Big Sis..I'm doing my best....I got home from work tonight and talked myself into a drink..Man utd were playing in the champions league...That doesnt mean much to many but to me it means booze...Well to me and another few generations of my family...The excuse was tonight that i gotta be sober to pick my eldest daughter up from a concert on friday night...
I set myself Fri and Sat to drink this week...So i subbed Friday for today...Does that make much sence??....No it doesnt does it?

Abs looks a million miles away at the moment..I want it...but it seams out of reach at the moment..

I know what i have to do..I have tried sucking in the guts and doing cold turkey...And WON...I gotta do it again..And if that fails do it again..At least ill be cutting down...Kathy...Thankyou..I got some old buddies on here who know how cool.....and how much of a complete arse i can be..Your a rock..So is Tawney...Gabby...Nancy..Roberta...God i could go on and on..

This really pisses Lisa off when i say this...I am gonna play it by ear and see how it goes....Which in Lisa language means...I still have no idea what you are gonna do...lol....Except it's not too funny..The truth is i have no idea myself...I try and try and try..I have the biggest motivation in the world...Better than money...better than fame...better than anything...I got 5 healthy beautiful children...And a wife that should win awards from anything from patience to cooking to intelligence to commen sense to love..

What the fuck am i waiting for???

Hi Macks, you can do this and we are all there to support you! I haven't been doing the best myself, but just thinking of MWO and coming here often makes me conscious of how much I'm drinking and helps me do better.
