I'm on day five; gonna stock up on gum for the weekend!!! I have to jump this hurdle at some point. Man I love weekends, but I hate weekends. Weekends are when all the temptations come at you.

hi hotwingeatter,

Congrtas on five days

I know what you mean about the weekends, so for the first one why not ignore the fact its the weekend and keep very busy all day Saturday and Sunday, maybe tiring but shoulkd help, its called switching anchors, means change everything around both physically and mentally, like I changed my furniture, changed my route to work to the shops etc., it helped me.

Good luck
