    @joans1976 You have good reason to whine and I'm glad you feel comfortable doing it with us. I do it too but for less whiney reasons. Hang in there. You're going through a really tough time right now but I'm confident that you will persevere and make it through this with flying colors!

    Hi All - I've been away but I'm back. I have found that I don't meet my goals without the support of this group and I've also missed everyone. Since I started late, my goal this month is 10 AF out of 18.

    11/29: Drinks (0.5) - I had to pick up DH at the airport at midnight last night (last night as in 11/29). I find it hard to go to bed after coming in at night, so we watched some TV, and boy did I want to have a drink or two and a snack once we were back. I had small amounts of both but I stopped myself from going all out. I "thought" about some of the tips in the article in my 11/28 comments. I need to read them again. :blush:

After finishing 1 bottle of wine we wanted to head to the liquor store to buy B&B but didn’t, didn’t open a 2nd bottle of wine either though we do have a number of bottles on hand, then thought oh we can have a crown and coke while watching the late evening LSU game but didn’t

    11/30 - AF; DH poured himself a drink but I decided that one more AF night to get me closer to my goal was a good thing.

    Thank you for letting me show up and be accountable each month!

    11/30: AF - Worked a little late yesterday, then worked out and it was 8:30 before I started working on dinner. The day flew by. I had a virgin Cape Cod with dinner.

    I'm a little under goal but I'm happy with this. I have limited my intake daily. I'll see you all in the December thread.

    Rolling Total: 8 AF Days out of 18
