Saying Hi

[Wytchewood]

Hi everyone. I've been lurking here for a week now and haven't posted as I wanted to achieve a milestone first. This evening marks 7 days AF. Not long I know but given how much and how frequently I was hammering the stuff, it's huge.
I can't describe how good it feels waking up without a hangover, an empty wallet and generally feeling $hit about embarassing myself (half-remembered) the night before.
I have been reading many of the posts and have nothing but admiration for everyone who is way ahead of me and gratitude for the bare honesty about individual struggles.

Congratulations and welcome aboard!

Thank you. Haven't used forums for years and I started a thread in error so many thanks for replying :)

Hello and well done! Glad to hear you're making progress and feeling good.

I stopped on 1 Jan. It's been tough but I am feeling the benefits now. I particularly like tracking the financial savings.

Great news. Sounds like you have done the hardest part already in recognising you need to make a change. Congratulations

Thank you :)

Yay go you!

@brightspice@Ilikegherkins @TooManyPlatesInMotion @TheOtherHotstepper Thank you all so much. Looking forward to another AF week!
