Oooh can I join please??
Over the next 12 weeks I am aiming, no GOING to:
1) Pay off Next balance and close account
2)Pay off my overdraft-only £300 so not too bad really
3)Use Wii Fit at least 3 times a week-eeek
4)Eat a proper meal every day and not resort to large tubes of Smarties as a meal replacement
5) Complete very complicated but essential form for work-Ofsted requirement, boring but totally necessary
6) Count my blessings every day as am better off than a lot of people-not financially just in general ie health,house,happy kids etc
Not going to put do something constructive cos getting out of bed in the morning is as constructive as I can get some days!!
That's it for now but am sure something else will come to me0 -
Completed some of my targets today ~ 15th September
2) No spending unless its needed for my day to day living... £2.06 spent on 500 straws (needed for eating plan) :rolleyes:
4) Pay off at least £300 from my debts... £144.92 payed off my debt today :j
6) Stick to my eating plan 100%... 100%0 -
