The ultimate incentive worked! Now onto phase two

Sounds like it will be best to do it now then so it is all done in two years hopefully!

I am just starting properly dieting today since my last attempt was appauling. A little stand on the scales scared me into starting again. Anyway not a good day to start as it is our work party tonight and it has pizza and 5 free drinks each. Going to just have a couple of slices (as is my dinner) and also just have vodka and diet coke and not have all five drinks.

FIVE free drinks? That's generous! Shame it's a Monday night though, do you think there'll be many people in tomorrow?

Would 'Invisalign' braces be an option if you're worried about having them on when you get married? I know they're more expensive but they sound so much better than regular braces! I'm surprised that I never had to have braces as my front teeth are a little crooked (and it drives me mad! I want veneers one day when I'm rolling in money!). I spoke to my old dentist about braces and he mentioned the invisible braces but said it wouldn't be worth the cost for me as the result would be 'minimal'. Pah, maybe if he'd acted when I was 12 I'd have perfect teeth and wouldn't be stuck with what I've got now!

Aye the person I'm being refered to does clear and white braces, if I have to have metal I'm not getting it done!

Well that's good news already! I hate the idea of 'train tracks' because they look like they'd make your mouth really sore! My friend at school was addicted to Bonjela because she was always getting ulcers from her braces rubbing- ouch!

Dinah93

Ewww I hate bonjela!

Birdie do you never update your sig, or have you not been keeping track of how much debt you have cleared? As a motivation, taking the 15th May as the central date, thats a smidge under £27 a day you need to clear between now and your birthday to clear all the debt (yes I'm bored, and doing random sums).

I hate the original, I was so happy when they released the minty one! I get a lot of ulcers so it was always a big battle between struggling with a sore mouth or putting nasty bonjela on the ulcer!

Hehe, I knew you'd notice that! I keep forgetting to update it; I can't do it at work as I can just about post a basic message, it doesn't like fancy signature editing! I hardly go on here at home so I forget to update then too! I've cleared a bit of it down, I've basically got the loan and the big CC left.

If you look at it optemistically, thats 1/3 of the way there!
