over spend and over eat

LilMissEmmylou

thanks guys for the push to continue. Re inchs, thats just it - my clothes dont feel any different heading to tesco to do my weekly shop today (a day early as OH seems think we r going to flood tomorrow lol ) so will try and find an inch tape to buy (i dont own one anymore). Ill just have to hope and pray it is some muscle although i cant see the difference.

Jo - pants :rotfl:better than any words id pick up from my OH

ICKA - of course its better to sort your finances out first, i agree with you. its easier to enjoy life when your finances are right. money might not make you happy, but it sure as heck can stop you being unhappy!

Lynne - men r spanners! If your happy with the new job then sod what he thinks of it! But I know how you feel, its nice for somebody to recognise and give you some positive affirmation for what you are doing.

ICKA, and gang go off topic at anytime and any direction you want. Isn't that why we are here ? We over eat and over spend for various reasons. The journey to a peaceful state of mind starts here. Thats why I started this, so we can "talk" about what ever is bothering us. Overdraft , could you use to same approach as over eating, small steps. Could you use a little less of your overdraft each month.

Cmc, excellent with the weight loss and clearing out the junk. i always feel fab when Ive cleared junk out. Because I have not been out spending money this week. My spare room is like a spare room. Usually I just open the door and put alls sorts of things in it. Puter is in there too and now i feel all fab, when I'm on it, instead of feeling cluttered.

Well done, onwards and downwards (I like that)

CMC, well done! That is sooo great!
I'm going to have a big ebay blitz Thurs, I took lots of things to a charity shop last week as I feel mean putting it all on ebay, charity shops must be missing out since it came along.
I just looked at the Stardrops thread, it sounds amazing! I'm gutted that i just spent £3 on cleaning stuff when I just could have got that for 60p! I don't know whether to buy it now or wait until I'v used up my other stuff thou? hmmm...
