I've had a drink the last 5 nights. I've gone backwards a month in terms of my weight goal. I'm back to square one in terms of alcohol craving.

Bugger.

    Make today your day to start. Might I suggest a name change for positive reinforcement?

    The name reminds me why I am what I am. I have been thinking of changing it though.

    it isn't if you stumble (everyone does) , it's how you respond that counts.

    remember, it's a process and not an event

    hang in there, homeslice.

    This. Everyone has setbacks. It’s what you do now that matters. Learn a lesson from it and turn things back around.

    Yes, I have stumbled but I will carry on. Step one today LOOONNG walk with Doggle. Step 2, complete my errands in town without buying alcohol. Tomorrow dust off the dumb bells.
