    Thanks Shoe Gal, havent lost anything this week,no workouts this weekend and eating crap...back on it tomorrow!!
    Don't worry I'm sure it will come back off soon-don't give up :-)

    I plan to get back on track this week - a week oiff and then a really busy week back at work have led to lots of bad eating :mad: Lots of going out in the first week - and lots of comfort eating in the second :o

    Wow, that is a huge increase Jen! The shoes I'm after are red stilettos with bows on the front, they look like leather but they have a little bit of a shine. They're much nicer than I make them sound. I tried to find them today but they didn't have them in the store either. They're in a magazine dated 9th of September so I'm guessing they just don't have them in yet- I'll keep checking online.

    Debt wise I've just been living on sod all and trying to throw prettymuch all of my wages at the debt. It's been hard especially as I love clothes and haven't been treating myself much, but at least it's nearly gone. Sadly I haven't inherited anything or the like lol.

    I'm making jewellery again...I need the money lol.

    I want a good spend up too, I've been eying this up for the reception http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Oasis-Pleated-Halter-Neck-Dress-in-Black-Size-8_W0QQitemZ170371035289QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_WSJL_Wholesale_GL?hash=item27aae7b099&_trksid=p4634.c0.m14.l1262

    I've looked on goofbay and they accepted an offer of £26 for the one they sold. Not sure what to do, it looks nice online and I think it would suit me but I don't know for sure. I hate faffing with sending clothes back.

    If it makes you two feel better I left bf in bed when I to town, and he was still asleep at 1.30! That said he has just made it out of Asda so I suppose he has done something at least.

    I've realised that in March I had 7k of debt, it's nearly 2k now. I'm really suprised how quickly I've got rid of it.
