    Late doing my update today. Just watching Claire Sweeney puting on weight... pretty shocking really. 2 stone on in 6 weeks by eating what she wants and not choosing 'diet' everything. Wonder how long it will take her to lose it again?

    Put £3 in the jar today as that was all the change I had in my purse. Over £30 this week off my PAD .... it's so good to pay attention to it on a daily basis having ignored it for so long!

    Well done everyone.

    Hello all.

    Brand New To this forum but I absolutley LOVE the idea. I have three nasty credit cards to attack this year and this is perfect motivation. Anyway, as I am starting late, £6 to Egg today to catch up. I am going to attack this card first - hopefully paying off £1 a day will wind them up as payback for them blacklisting lots of folks!!

    Good luck everyone. Andy.:j

    Egg Card £1,907 now £1,901.

    £6 PAID TODAY.

    Hello peeps ....

    Hope you are all ok ....

    haribOuk - Re ; your pay off the card now or " stash " the cash question ....Personally i would pay the money off the card ..... but that's only because in my case there always seems to be another bill to pay ! :rolleyes: .....

    chickflick , kimbo29uk , Scaredandindebt , Eager_Elephant ,LondonAndy,- Hi hellowave.gif Good luck with your payment a day, no matter how small it all adds up to helping us be debt free .....Everyone is really great on here , which really keeps you motivated ...... Also if you happen to be dieting we " weigh in " on here on a monday .... You don't have to " type " how much your starting weight is ,( unless you want to ...) just how much you have lost each week !!!

    waterwatcher - Best that you cover your bits up in bed tonight , or they could end up frozen ! shakeass.gif ....
    ElizabethJH - Hi hellowave.gif Nice to see you back ..... Hope you had a lovely Christmas ....

    joeyjimbles - Hope your " little one " is well enough for you to be able to do your mystery shops krank.gif....
    paybacktime2008 - I notice that you weighed yourself at Boots goodscales.gif .... Am not sure if they still do this , but at my local branch you use to be able to ask the staff for a " Boots weight monitering smart card " .....( it looks like a credit card ) .... Then you pre-loaded it with some money ( £1 or so ). Then when you weigh yourself instead of putting cash into the slot you put the card in and it takes the money off your card ...... But it logs all your " weigh ins" on it .....Plus you could still print out a " receipt "with your weight on ..... Hope that makes sense ? ......

    jojo13 - Great news that you have cleared one of your cards ....Well Done happy0005.gif...
    Greenbynature - How's your grandaughter been with her newish baby sister ( sophie ? .... i think ) th_smiliebaby.gif ....

    Double Trouble - Hope you are keeping well ..... Is everything still going to plan with selling your house ? 40993.gif .....

    flying_fresian - You are doing a great job with the figures .....Much appreciated by everyone, i'm sure eheheh.gif .....

    Has anyone heard from purpleposting4 , ? .... she was meant to be moving a few days before Christmas ......

    Here's my Good and Bad for today ...

    The Good - Paid £50 to Graingers .....
    Added £1 to my pot ......

    Ellie's been fine with new baby (yes it is Sophie) apart from giving her a couple of slaps across the face:eek: in first few days of being home and giving her dirty looks when she cries:rotfl: she's more or less ignored her and the slapping was erm Ellie's way of being nice :o she slapped everyone for awhile who got too close to her but thankfully she seems to have stopped that nice habit thank god!!! :rotfl:

    Eeeek! :eek:

    Someone at work was trying to encourage me to do this today too, so maybe the time is nigh :rotfl:

    I guess that means I need to buy some scales :rolleyes: oooh or I could use the Wii fit :T

    I think this could be scary :rotfl:

    I watched this aswell, but found it very depressing!

    Her end weight was more than what i weigh now but she still looked better than i do, and all she did was moan about her 'fat' belly!! I would hate to to know what she would think of my belly :rotfl:

    Gosh maybe it is time i started that diet :rolleyes: , i though i only needed to lose about half a stone, im starting to think maybe add an extra stone to that :rotfl:

    kimbo29uk - i am very jealous i would love a wii fit!! is it as good as it looks?

    I'm feeling really down about my debts today but it's always the same this time of the month!(all my debts/ bills mostly come out first week of the month) and as usual for this time of the month i'm wondering if i can take any shopping money out of the bank without it going over my limits?
    I'm also excited but very scared because i have added to my debts today by ordering stock for my new retail buisness though hopefully buying stock in the sales will save me in the long run and i will be on 0% very soon?
    It's what i do best and i've been wanting to do it for so long! fed up of working really hard building someone elses buisness up for them to reap the rewards and trust me they have big style.
    So here goes nothing i'm sure i'll be fine and i'm worrying about nothing but i cant help but be concerned for my oh and ds's if you know what i mean.
    on a good note though within 2 days of telling people i have 3 party bookings for next month hopefully will generate more?
    sorry for harping on just feeling very scared and aprehensive about the future
