Tonight my husband has a church meeting, that would normally be an incentive for me to drink vodka behind his back... but not tonight, I intend to be AF.

Intend to be AF? Who was I fooling... knew perfectly well I had no intention. Oh well, better add up my units... what was it 8.4 + another 4.2 making it 12.6 so far. Sorry DeeBee, I know you were counting on me...

Nothing seems to be going as planned, didn't stick to my moderation plan last night, OK it was just the normal 2 beers (no vodka) but I didn't stick to it. I'm not doing my daily devotions and not doing any exercise. I'm drinking fizzy pop, eating crisps and chocolate biscuits... ARRRRRRRRRRRRGH! Must try harder. I'll have to not go to the pub on Saturday or something.

Think i've drunk too much orange juice... it says a 200ml serving provides 67% of my daily allowance of Vitamin C, i've drunk a 500ml bottle.

Hi Patricia - I've been moderating for around 6 months now. I've done 2 stints AF, first 50 days, second 40 days. All the best in your plans.

Thanks Vlad - Going to allow AL for this next week because I'm on holiday and have just completed 31 days and then AF until 31 July. I'm a bottle a night person - sometimes less but never more - doesn't make the guilt any less though! I'm hoping with the help of this site and the fact that I publically declare my AF days that I will win through . . . . I know it's probably against the odds . . . . but you never know . . . . . I wouldn't have thought that I'd have done the recent stint without being scared witless by guilt or anxiety but I did and I think it was only because I signed up for the 30 days challenge on this site . . . . time will tell . . . Have a brilliant weekend . . . . I'll try and keep logged in to keep my feet in reality . . . .

Morning Modders............

Start of a big holiday weekend here in the States. With that, a lot of temptation. Thus I have formulated plans to avoid the situations that can lead to catastrophy. Last night stayed at the club for only 2 beers. They were going down to easily, so I left.

Funnily, I felt that I was in a very uncomfortable environment. I was being introduced to a lot of people who wanted to talk and party. Last year I would have left the club at 2am and would still be sleeping now. I just felt a strange vibe, must have been from MWO, and knew that I had to leave.

I have realized that I am much more comfortable outside in the sunlight...........

All Modders have a safe and productive weekend................Get outside and enjoy yourselves

Hi all,

Well done Treeman. Welcome Patricia.

Have been AF since Sunday but then I drank a bottle of wine last night- not really mods is it? I felt like putting 3 large (250 ml) in the drink tracker which would have looked better than 6 small ( 125ML ). But I didn't succumb to tempatation.

I have been here for almost 2 years now and still have nights where I don't stick to my plan. ( It was hubby's birthday ) However, on the positive side I did'nt start another bottle.

Love to all as always
Waves
