        Hello everyone

        Hi Do do - I'm with you too.

        Had planned to give up the booze for New Year - but only managed one day. Too many half empty bottles left in the house from Christmas. I need to not drink too - my liver actually aches!

        Good luck and here's to will power for us all!
        Never put off to tomorrow what you can achieve today!

            Hello everyone

            I feel so sick and lethargic today, I have started a weight loss plan as well as quitting the AL cos I have put on ten pounds since my summer holiday in September and I am now two stone too heavy!

              Hello everyone

              Hi Guys

              I just wanted to wish you all the very best in your AF journey.

              Dodo - A lot of the extra weight may be bloating from AL, I was a puffy balloon until I quit.

              Snap - any left overs pour them down the sink! NOW! I too had an aching liver and high liver count. I did a test again 6 weeks after quiting and it was back to normal.

              Freefly - Glad you are feeling determined, anchor that feeling and remember it when the going gets tough.

              Beagle - Take that word "try" right out of your vocabulary and replace it with "do".

                    Hello everyone

                    Thanks everyone, I feel absolutely crap today, nauseous, tired, headachey, depressed you name it, I am so looking forward to waking up unhungovered tomorrow! I have just been and bought some herbal stress relief capsules so hoping they will help me to feel better too.

                      Hello everyone

                      Hi Maur.... I remember your posts from this time last year. Let's put the past behind us and focus one hour..... One day at a time. I know you can do this !!!!!!
                      I would rather have a frontal labotomy than a bottle in-front-of-me.

                      AF since Oct 23,2013

                      I watched this and found it incredibly empowering.....

                          Hello everyone

                          Hi Mauri, I remember you from way back when. I tied one on last night although I guess I must have drank enough water in between the wine as I have no hangover but I am so sick of my failures to meet any goal I have set for myself.

                          So I will be following along and will post here when I start accumulating a few A/F days in a row.

                          All the best to you and I hope your health takes a major upswing in the next few weeks. I have ten pounds of lard to rid myself of as well. My aim is to be ten pounds lighter when we drive to Florida for a month in April. Hubby bought me a very small Montreal Canadians bathing bikini which I would love to wear down south to start conversations and show off my tan. Don't want to wear that with my muffin top.

                          There is absolutely no reason to drink and a million reasons not to.
                          Tipplerette

                          I do this for my children, my grandchildren, my health, my peace of mind, and mostly for the opportunity to learn to live with my true, unfiltered, clear-headed, vulnerable self.

                            Hello everyone

                            Hang in there

                            To everyone coming back and trying again-YAY! Welcome back and stay strong.

                            This forum has really given me hope and strength, I think mostly because of the nonjudgemental
                            atmosphere. I tried a site once for help and support where I was demeaned and ridiculed.
                            It was the opposite of what I needed.

                            AF 2012!
