Paid an extra £160 off the MBNA this morning.
Booked holiday, so no more going out for us, got lots to put our "spending" money towards now.
Did 1/2 hour on the running machine yesterday...one min run , one walk...almost killed me. Will do the same today, and also go some wii fit!!
Today is washing and ironing, and quick tidy round.
I also need to totaly gut my wardrobe.....need to have a good clear out and see what no longer fits....thought I could put these in a bag and if they still don't fit after 2 months then get rid!!LBM Total: £33356 15/11/09 :eek: £6085.63 paid

Missymoo - you are mistaken. There's no such thing as a very big 10! :rolleyes::D
Well done on the overpayment Chops! :T0 -
So true , I would happily wear a very big 10!!! Or even a massssive 12!!!
Missy you will look fab in that dress!
I feel very sick and am starting to realise where a lot of my CC debt has come from shopping:mad:
I have sorted my clothes into clothes I wear, and clothes I am unable to get my HUGE butt into...and its half and half.
The sad thing is some of these clothes have still got tags on...had to force myself not to add them up!!
So I am giving myself 8 weeks...and then its ebay!!
I have eaten really well today, and feel better for it....just hping I see the results so can whip the smug face of my mini mii on the wii!!!:rolleyes:
Had a NSD today, also made spag bol with quorn mince and the kids loves it. I did not have any garlic bread...well had a small lick so Hubby wouldn't smell!!:DLBM Total: £33356 15/11/09 :eek: £6085.63 paid

lol chops you are funny the garlic bread licking made me laugh so much!! Thats the sort of thing I do!!
And my mini mii on the wii really makes me cross, I hate it when the wii fit basically has a go at you for putting on weight!!! meany thing!!
And I am sooo short being a very big ten, makes me look a bit like a weeble, being so very pear shaped!! so there!!0 -
Fair enough, it is all relative and depends how you feel. I'm sure you'll look amazing for your wedding
Are you considering any sort of detox Missy? I did the Carol V one for the month before mine and it really made a difference to my skin and I was all bright eyed! The bird seed was a bit tasteless - but no pain no gain!!
Chops, if you feel bad about the clothes spend on the CC, why don't you Ebay stuff you no longer wearThat would make a few £££'s and assuage the guilt...and step away from the garlic bread!

ooh hadnt thought about that macgirl... I've upped my fruit and veg to atleast my 5 a day, which seems to have worked wonders for me, but detox could be a plan.... carol vorderman you say? ***runs over to have a look at amazon***0

Well Missy, they are all much of a muchness really, You Are What You Eat etc. It is hard, but there's no better incentive than your Wedding.
Basically, you cut out carbs, caffeine, alcohol, dairy and wheat (not much then! :rolleyes:) for 28 days. CV said she cheated a bit and I did a bit, but I certainly felt so much better and got lots of compliments on how well I looked. I should try it again really.....
Good luck!0 -
Hmm might give this detox a go...not sure if I could live without jacket pots tho!! But 28 days inot forever I suppose.
Any clothes I hav gone off will be heading to ebay...the oes that don't fit, well going to try and get in them!!
I have decided I hate surveys ...I just realised I have gone up an age group!!:pLBM Total: £33356 15/11/09 :eek: £6085.63 paid

Loan repayment went out today, bank account looking good.:D
I have spent £7 on food today. I really want to bake my own bread, but have not got any bread flour, so don't think I can.
Only 20p on the scratch cards, never mind tho.LBM Total: £33356 15/11/09 :eek: £6085.63 paid
