£5.00 into our holiday spends tin today.. just 12 weeks to go & only £21 saved
think this calls for some serious ebaying.
I know I keep talking about it, but can always find some reason not to do it!
It also calls for some serious weight loss too!
I will have enough clothes for the hols if I can drop a dress size or two... and posibly enough sun tan lotion if there is less of me to rub it on!!!:rotfl:
DT like you I'm at my heaviest ever .. if we can pad, I'm sure we can diet!
Paul, you are feeding the right animal I think... sending you positive thoughts.
Welcome newcomers .. Padding is the only positive addicition I have!
Well done Terri on your bingo wins - all I've got is bingo wings!!
Angelica .. hope you get plenty of sleep tonight.

Hi all
Didn't get on the computer yesterday; PAD today to vile lloyds plat card £10 please.
Well done to all the PADDERs on here, we will triumph over the debts - even tiny overpayments make a huge difference :money:
Thank goodness I found MSE & all the support on here, because I dread to think where we would be now if I hadn't:eek: Yes, often it gets tedious & I think to hell with it & I would like to spend money....but then I realise that would be really, really stupid to get back in those ways. And even if I do fall by the wayside a bit sometimes; like the diet, you just get back on track the next day.
Well done to Paul for overcoming the adversity & having the guts to keep going when times are hard :T:T
and well done to Terri on her win:T:TNew start JAN15 - NOT BUYING IT 2015 :eek:. Long haul DFW #145 : 2011 DEBTBUSTING : £5500 OD GONE, £2000 OD - GONE £93,610.30 cc & loan debt - GONE 27.6.14 FINALLY DEBT & MORTGAGE FREE :happyhear0 -

)
DT - wise words from a brave lady (not about getting preggers tho - bit drastic!) I start every day with "Today is the start of my new diet" (before eating a biccie - or 5!)
Hello Brighty :hello: welcome aboard!
And congrats on the winnings Terri! Tempting to carry on with Lady Luck shining on you!
Night all x0 -

... Oooooooh i used to love my " spacehopper " when i was younger ! ...Mind you i wouldn't mind a go on one now !
...
Hope everybody has been enjoying the sunshine today...
Paul - Rather than add to the " words of wisdom " that you have been given , here's a little piccy to cheer you up .....
DT - Am sure that you will " crack " the diet , once you get started... I know it takes a while to get motivated ..... If all else fails then maybe set 3 of twins ? !;) :rotfl: ....
Here's my Good and Bad for today ...
The Good - Pad £50
The Bad - Still CHCOOY bar free here ...
My daily food diary...
1/2 tin of beans and sausages on toast ( aprox 350 calories )
pasta with tuna , peppers, onion .
1/2 glass of wine !
Diet wise ... An ok day today .... but i went way overboard yesterday , so really i shouldn't have eaten at all !
Up until 2 hours ago , i was having a really " cheesed off " day... i got ready to go out this morning , then thought s*d it and stayed in ( i would have only ended up spending money i never had if i had gone out ! ) .... So stayed in instead ..... all grumpy and miserable !
...
Then this evening i decided to have a game of bingo on the Littlewoods site anyway i won £50 ! ( not bad as i only bought one 50p ticket ! ) ...
An hour or so after i decided to try the Take a break bingo site and won £88.32 ! ( i only bought 4 25p tickets ) .
I was using up some odd money that i had left in both of those accounts , so am really pleased as i had made a mistake when paying some bills this week and somehow managed to pay a bill that wasn't due for a while , instead of the one that was.... and had spent all morning wondering where the hell i was going to find the extra money .
So have now withdrawn the winnings from both of those back to my credit card...
I was wondering whether to try for 3rd time lucky , but decided against it !
Catch you all tomorrow ...
terri x ( My PAD for today is £50 )
