Accountability post: 8 AF 4 LA 4 A

5 AF 3 LA 3 A I need to rack up some more AF days to get back on track.

@Stepawayfromthetable have you checked to see if you can cancel your drinks package for your cruise? It might be too late but could be worth looking into. Then you won't feel like you have to get your money's worth. If you decide to drink, you can buy individual drinks and have some more control over your intake. Just some…

4 AF (includes today) 2 LA 1 A

Accountability post: 2 AF 1 LA 1 A Plan to be AF today, will post results tomorrow.

Happy May Everyone! I am going to try to post daily this month, not sure how that is going to go but we'll see. Not the greatest start to the month for me. I drank my less alcohol beer last night but had too many! Luckily, it is early in the month so plenty of time to turn things around. It is a challenge for me to keep up…

17 AF 10 LA 3 A Final post for April. See you all in May!

16 AF 10 LA 3 A Doing better with less but need more AF days. Will do better in May.

Accountability Post: 12 AF 2 A 7 LA I decided to start tracking my LA days, which for me right now means either less than my usual amount and/or lower alcohol beer than the beer I usually drink. I think this will help me acknowlege the progress I have made since I started lurking here as a more or less daily drinker at the…

Accoutability Post: 6 AF 2 A

thank you, @I_am_motivated I am going to check this out and have my son take the quiz too!

It has taken me a while to catch up with everyone's posts. I can relate to so many of these comments! @NonnieDoiron I can totally relate about cleaning your daughther's room! My son is ADHD and I can never get him to clean his room to my standard! I am not OCD but I like things to be clean and more or less in order. He…

Final numbers for March: 16 AF, 15 A. Not great. Will do better for April.

Accountability post, including today: 9 AF 9 A I need to get some more AF days.

@Womano, you are doing great. As I was reading your post, I didn't think, oh, you drank too much. I thought about the cold wine on a beautiful day being a lovely treat. I can understand why you are disparging yourself for the work wine and the wine with steak but ultimately, it was only 2 1/2 glasses of wine over a long…

@dmally1 For help with quitting smoking, you might want to read, "The Easy Way to Stop Smoking" by Allen Carr. I started smoking young and was a daily smoker for years. I "cut back" for a few years and only smoked when I was drinking. This book really helped me when I was ready to think about it in a different way and I…

5 AF 2 A Tuesday I stopped myself from going out and buying beer and had 2 Lagunitas IPNAs instead. Wed. had to go get some other groceries and "my" beer was on clearance so I grabbed a 12 pack. Had beer that night and last night. Haven't decided yet what is in store for this evening so not posting yet for today.

It took me a while to read all of the post for this month, it's so good to see everyone off to a good start! I did not put forth my best effort in February so I am trying to get motivated to do better this month. Stats so far, including today: 3 AF 1 A Thank you @MissMay for keeping this community together! And thank you…

Final post for February 14 AF 15 A Not great but not terrible either Marching on...

14 AF 14 A Just one more day!

Accountability post 10 AF 12 A This is not my best effort but I am trying not to be too hard on myself because negative self-talk is actually not productive. I'm going to try to finish this month with at least 15 AF days. I can relate to so many of these posts here but one in particular stood out to me. I can go days…

Accountability post: 5 AF 4 A I'm not planning for any drinks today but that could change so waiting to post today's number later. I am still finding abstinence easier than limiting, but slowly improving there. I am definitely happy with my progress since joining this group in January 2023. Prior to that I was drinking…

I'm back for February. Not the greatest start to the month. Not sure what happended to me this past week but reeling it back in today. 2 AF 2 A Thanks to @MissMay for keeping this going!

Last post for January, 17 AF, 14 A If there weren't 87 days in January, I might have done better, lol.

accountability post 16 AF 9 A I'm happy with my number of AF days and I am also doing better with portion control.

Accountability Post: 11 AF 5 A I can't remember who said it on this thread but, for me, too, abstinence is usually easier than moderation. I really need to work on moderation. Everyone is doing amazing this month, it is extremely admirable & motivating!

Accountability post: 7 AF 3 A

Accountability post: 4 AF 2 A It's great to see so many new people this month! I hope we all find the resolve we need to meet our goals.

Happy New Year my AF Friends! I am back for January. Met the new year at midnight, then went right to bed. AF last night, I don't like starting the new year with hangover so it is my tradition to abstain on NYE. It probably helps that I don't usually go out for NYE, lol. I joined this supportive community in January 2023…

I finally have time today to post: 15 AF/10 A Too many drinks on a couple of those days but I am feeling ok with that.
