You don't give yourself half enough credit. I think you are always undercutting what really are huge accomplishments. I think I have only have one or at the most 2 episodes of 3 AF in a week the whole seven months I have been doing this and they were not consecutive days. If I could do that I would be shouting it from the rooftops!! We need to CELEBRATE our successes.

Hugs from Newlife


Oh gosh - my dear friend - thank you for being MY cheerleader ! I do not see any of this as huge accomplishments though - yes, my intake is down to pre Nal but not down to when I began. I know it is going to work - I know I keep saying that too - and it will - but sometimes I get down about it. And me being down is not who I used to be so do find it rather hard. If you had felt how I did on Monday, trust me, you would have been AF both Monday and Tuesday too. Plus you are beginning to feel changes - I am NOT !

Hugs, Maggie xx

Actually, I WANT to be able to celebrate my successes with a drink! As is "A" drink, not a bunch! Wen I can celebrate with just A drink, THAT will be a success!!

PS - Your name always makes me smile... "Badger" is one of the nicknames we have for our dog... :D

Well, after a terrible night last night trying to sleep despite taking a tab, I have decided to be AF today! As long as I can get through that first two hours when I get home I will be fine - I actually took the Nal out of my key ring thing so I could NOT take it at work as I usually do!! And I am fine - it helped that I have a chap here at the house doing some work for me - I would not want him to see me with a drink at noon !! LOL

I have to admit that the thought of having a drink actually was not appealing actually - I have been having too many each day - and although I had 3 AF days last week, I have been drinking every day for four days - 5 each day and I am not feeling that great! SO AF today - and will also try for tomorrow. I leave for UK Friday and have so much to do before then that I need to have a clear head!! And still cannot seem to have just one or two ! Once I have that first one, all thoughts of trying to just have one or 2 go out the window !

Hugs, Maggie xx
