Hey all, checking in on Day 20 \:)/ Girls night was great and although I was the only one not drinking I didn't feel left out and had a fab time just as I would have if I had drank wine. Plus I got up and ran my first 4k which I couldn't have done normally. Happy happy happy (::) My daughter's birth...

Hi Claremo, good to see you and welcome

Hey Cowboy, Icandoit, Welcome to the three week challenge. But we're like ships in the night. I am a couple of days behind the new year pack who went onto the 4 week challenge yesterday so I'll be going there tomorrow. We should all catch up for a while on the 2 month challenge. It's not that far a...

Hi all, checking in on day 18. Tough few days... I was hoping I would feel tonnes better but physically still feel the same, still tired and therefore quite anti-social. The terrible pangs of guilt have gone so I suppose mentally a lot better. Hey ho, perhaps expecting too much. It's funny how you b...

Hi Cowboy, I can do it. Great to see you here in week 2. Ooh its very quiet in here now the bus has gone. I'll be moving on too tomorrow. Day 14 today.

WHOOOO HOOOO!!!! \:)/ \:)/ \:)/ A last glass of water (thanks for the reminder Mancmuso) then off to bed. The last two nights sle...

Well folks it's day 15 for me and I'm hopping over now to my next challenge. Went out with friends last night to a pub and watched an amazing live band. Stuck to my sparkling water and lime juice all night and probably the only sober one in there but it felt great and surprisingly not such a strugg...

Friday 13th - unlucky for some but not us! Stunning day in the south east of england. I am enjoying not feeling tired and jittery, and being able to make early morning plans - i have so much more time, and lots more energy to put to use in that time. When we don't feel happy then the days and parti...

Day 9 and survived my first AF weekend \:)/ I feel quite peaceful and calm which is a wonderful feeling as I can't remember the last time I didn't wake up at the weekend feeling wretched and guilty because I had another black out and can't remember skyping my Mum and not sure what I said to my husba...

Afternoon here in sunny Dubai! I am with you Pokerbird on the cakes, my weight is going up due to the fact that I am eating Christmas cake daily - I thought about throwing it away, but watching what I eat is not top priority at the moment, stopping drinking alcohol is. I never thought the weight wou...

Hi guys, just wanted to say well done, 7 days is the hardest thread but I promise you it does easier and quite quickly and the results are fantastic. Sharoni, you mention your low self esteem and depression. I too felt exactly the same two months ago. I feel so much better now and the only change I...
