    I hope so, and it will probably mean i wont feel like eating rubbish either.

    I shall allow myself 1 night a week (probably Friday or Saturday) to have chips from chipshop... cos i love them! :rotfl: And they only cost £1.10.

    Hi MM - i don't think my DFD will be until December. I'm fine about that, as long as its gone by the end of 2008 i don't mind. If i didn't have Italy and America coming up in October and November i would be debt free in November. I am looking foward to my 2 hols though :D

    Great news about the meal planning Amy, will save you lots!!! My OH and I are useless with things like that, always eating out, but we do use all our 2 for 1 offers if we do.
