Ok...In that case I will start from today and finish my month on 6th June 09.
This is gonna be quite tricky for me as it's my birthday this month AND I have exams (I get lazy when it comes to cooking at exam time as I spend all my time revising).
May 2009 Loans £6,108 + Cards £13,172 = £19,280
September 2009 Loans £5,208.10 + Cards £12,746.52 = £17,954.62
Good luck! I'm the same when it comes around to exam time. Was also my birthday this month so that was hard as well. :rotfl:
Debt relief order: January 2013 (Discharged Jan 2014)
Jacamo: £115.81. Rebuilding credit rating
However, I have found that by buying chiller cabinet /fresh pizzas, from Tescos (usually 2 or 3 for £6), then when cooking, adding random things out of the fridge (mushrooms/peppers/oddments of bacon/sausages etc) they are just as nice - if not nicer! AND they freeze well too!;)
Plus they're even better when they've been reduced!:D
So far 5/31
I do plan to go the whole month without one.
Best of luck everyone else. :dance:
Ref the question re what is healthy indian, well at least in part any of the dry meals you can have ie not in a sauce. The sauce ones eg korma etc, will have ghee in (liquid butter), and cream and yoghut sometimes too. So those are the ones to avoid
rogan josh is a bit better cos it doesn't have the cream in it, but will still have the ghee.
I have heard though that some indian restaurants now are using olive oil instead of the ghee but I don't know how true that is.

Still on the straight and narrow - it's now 7/31 for me. :j:j
Keep strong all and good luck!
Well today i failed and caved in to the kids and OH wishes. I had tea all planned just about to cook when the door bell rang and they were pizzas waiting to be eating.
Turns out the three of them together decided we were having pizza because OH finally passed his driving test:j:rotfl::j
So in a way i felt guilty but at the same time, sinful pleasure is so nice.:o
So failed today but so far my total is 7/28, so still on track.
I would say a celebratory pizza is allowed so you will be forgiven for your sins!
