I now have 8 days too myself as Simon has gone on holiday with the kids for a week so I am planning to hammer the gym and try do some MSE stuff.

I did Izzy's pet insurance last night via TCB so getting £20 from that.

I also found out yesterday at work that I am getting a £300 bonus in September from work as we hit a target in June for customer service so thats good Will also be getting overtime and any sales bonus I have made so will be a nice payday.

I have £479 left to clear on the credit card, have £22 coming in from eBay sales and £3ish from TCB so am going to put that on the card. Wondering if I can clear the full amount on next payday as would love to be able to save that bonus as my savings are so low compared to what I want.

All sounding good on the money front - and a work bonus is always good news :j

Great to hear you sounding so happy, you have really turned your life around :A

Right I didn't do any MSE stuff yesterday apart from the Virgin Scratchcard.

I did go to the gym though where I lifted a whooping 5000kg and burnt over 300 calories.

I also saw my friend Gemma who I haven't seen since my birthday.

Off to the gym in a bit, going to do at least as much as I did yesterday if not a bit more, I am not really losing weight by numbers but I have the nicest legs I have ever had as always had very large thighs but they are so much more toned now, when I stand up there is space between them!

Then going to go shopping for some healthy stuff for this week and some diet cat food for spencer because he has only lost a little weight and then come back on here and trawl through the forums to see how much extra cash I can make today, am going to list my exercise bike on eBay I think today and clear out my wardrobe though I doubt there is anything worth ebaying in it.

Mmmmmm I really need a serious kick up the backside, have not had a good week......

Although I mentioned my legs are in good nick my stomach is well a different thing altogether....I have been putting on quite a bit of weight since I met Simon and started the new job and this week I was supposed to be eating really healthy and going to the gym every night.....

Instead I have been gym 4 times including last Sat/Sun and have eaten quite a lot of rubbish and not lost any weight and prob put a 1lb or so back on.

My jeans were starting to get very uncomfortable and I do really need to lose 1/2 stone to feel happy again but I just don't have the motivation to do it.....

I am thinking of leaving my gym and going to the one which is literally next door to my work because then I can go straight after work so might go more often......

I wish the days when I could eat everything in site were still here....

On the money front I haven't made any, I have saved 1 x £2 coin in my terramundi but I do have £80 left until next Friday when I get paid which is good for me recently.

On another note I have ditched my driving lessons again for now....:o. I wasn't feeling comfortable in my lessons and having them after work wasn't very good for me. Not sure what I am going to do about it for now.

Think I am going to wait until school holidays are over and I am back into more of a routine with Simon as I have been spending a lot more time with him as he hasn't had the kids as much due to them being looked after about 40 miles away each day by the grandparents.

So I need to get some more routine/structure.....I need to lose the weight, thats the most important thing to me right now.

I have to work tomorrow now so no gym for me until Tuesday probably and only going to get there twice next week. I am going to have to make sure no more goes on at least before Sept starts!

lilmissmup

Can't believe its September already.......

Well my August plan didn't go to plan.

On the positives my credit card is now down to £356 and after next payday will defo be down to £0!

I have also finally closed my A&L overdraft so no temptation there but they are now charging me £5 a month underfunding fee so I need to look into closing it down.

My weight......is exactly the same as last month. I have managed to not put any more on but I do really need to lose the weight as I am not happy about it.

I have just swapped to the gym next door to my work and have my first induction there on Tuesday night, means I can go straight from work and its £6 cheaper a month too!

So plan for September is too try and lose 4lbs and not put anything on the credit card. My budget per day is £13.87 but I do have to pay for Izzy's booster jab this month which is about £50.

In Septembers pay I should get an extra £500ish in bonuses and comission and overtime, but I am struggling with what to do with it.

Part of me wants to treat myself, other part of me wants to save it all but I think I am going to be using some of it to help Simon get his boiler fixed because he hasn't had hot water for 3 months now and soon it will be cold!!!

Oh and it was 6 months yesterday since our first date :smileyhea. And I am just as happy today, hes still the loveliest boyfriend I have ever had!!!
