Today I turned 54 and I am 710 days alcohol free. Its amazing to think that I haven't had a drink for that long. I don't want one now. Theres absolutely nothing a glass of wine, pint of beer or double shot can do for me now that a cup of tea or fancy AF… Continue reading Day 710 : my birthday

Day 678
Yesterday I made an effort to address my chocolate and sweets consumption which seems to have spiralled rapidly out of control. The side effect of giving up alcohol (I told myself) was OK but actually it's not! Some mornings I feel just as bad as I did when I was drinking! Reading the SW app!… Continue reading Day 678
AM: Sunday – Day 640. Sober and free from the beast.
Do you know I wake up every single day feeling jolly chuffed with myself for continuing to be sober. Removing alcohol from my life hasnt made the wheels and cogs of life go round any differently.. oh no its still a case of "same old stuff different day". I still get up and go to… Continue reading AM: Sunday – Day 640. Sober and free from the beast.
Day 603 – relaxing in Penang
603 days alcohol free and I am currently relaxing in penang. The weather forecast says cloudy but cloudy it definately isn't! Alcohol free holidays are so much easier now. I don't seem to associate every exciting moment with alcohol anymore (it was all I knew before I gave up) I don't hang around the club… Continue reading Day 603 – relaxing in Penang
AM Thu: day 567 (81 weeks)
I can not believe that I am now writing day 567 (81 weeks). 81 weeks ago today my life changed. I stopped drinking alcohol. On that day.. Day 1.. I must admit I didn't actually believe that I was ever going to be writing day 567! I had written in various diaries throughout the years… Continue reading AM Thu: day 567 (81 weeks)
PM: Sunday – Day 500
Today I had a Krispy Kreme donut and a jam donut as a treat for being AF for 500 days. 😛
PM: Sunday – Day 458
I haven't posted for ages! Still alcohol free and still loving it, although getting to this point is a bit like being on a roller coaster. Ups, downs, twists and turns. Not knowing, exhilaration! It's all part and parcel of being AF! I have had 2 AF holidays. The first was a learning curve! Hated… Continue reading PM: Sunday – Day 458
AM : Friday – week 59 – Seminyak, Bali
And all of a sudden I am at week 59...not day 59 but week 59! I still get the butterflies in my stomach when I think about it. I feel so lucky to be free from the shackles the wine witch had over me. Those days where I would say not today and still chant… Continue reading AM : Friday – week 59 – Seminyak, Bali
AM : Monday – Day 402 – Ubud
Lovely breakfast this morning in Ubud. Last night went out on a pub/bar crawl which involved numerous fresh fruit juices and body cleansers, and it was fun and exciting. If I had been drinking I would have felt tired and my eyes would have been rolling, my appetite would have been lost to only fancying… Continue reading AM : Monday – Day 402 – Ubud
AM: Monday – Day 389 (55 weeks & 4 days)
I haven't posted in ages. Kept wanting to but sat here looking and not doing. Reminds me of when I suffered with depression. I would look at the front door willing myself to go out but never going. Sat in drinking instead. Well I'm not drinking but I do feel a bit run down. It's… Continue reading AM: Monday – Day 389 (55 weeks & 4 days)
