Hi everybody - sorry I have been missing, thanks for your concern :A
Nothing exciting to report - just a really busy week at work, including working today
Have put 1 lb back on, have done no exercise
- just work, work, work!
Got another 2 weeks of being busy then it should calm down a bit, and I have been promised some help from a new starter who will be joining the department in a few weeks
As work is taking up so much time at the moment I am not setting myself any other targets at the moment - will try to eat sensibly and keep up the 'glamourizing'
My handbag arrived and is lovely - black patent, slouchy with a chain handle. £25 in the sale so not too naughty!
Haven't quite made my budget this month, put my Mum's birthday present on my credit card yesterday. Bearing in mind that I haven't been out at all this month my thinking is that my budget was maybe too ambitious so will probably rethink for February - I still want to keep my 'having a life' philosophySometimes it's hard to walk in a single woman's shoes - that's why we need really special ones!Total debt @ Oct 2008: £29,226.42 Credit Card- £[STRIKE]7493.56[/STRIKE] - £7243.56Weightloss : 0/34lbs0 -

Hey SG!
Hope you are well, i'm back and posting....well will be once I catch up with everyone elses diaries today. Day off and I WILL get round to posting on everyones!!!
Well done on the weight loss and don't blame you for not setting any targets whilst so busy -it's not worth it and if you are anything like me I just get down when I don't achieve them? Think you gave me great advice many a times 'baby steps'....that is def the way forward and if you manage to lose 3lbs per month this year that's over 2 stone by the end of the year, perhaps think of it that way?
Will keep catching up now as finally sorted after xmas, new year and manic work.... xxxx0 -

Hi
Just catching up after another manic work week! Have worked long hours again this week so pretty much everything else has been ignored!
Anyway, it's payday and I have paid off my Barclaycard :j:j including a couple of extra bits I had put on it! I am determined to keep it clear until my hols now - and am now going to target throwing any extra money at my Next account. There will be no council tax this month as I pay over 10 months so will pay that towards it
Have stuck to £365 on 365 days too, will be a nice Christmas pot if I can keep going. Have been so busy I've hardly spent any money either so that's good - but no cash has meant no coins for piggies!
Weightloss is non-exisitent - in fact I have put a pound onNot really focusing on it at the moment, have had a couple of 'corporate' dinners this week and have been grabbing food when I can as I've been so busy. Got another week of events this week at work and then it should all calm down a bit and give me a chance to focus on other things
Need to get some shopping done, tidy my apartment, do some washing and loads of other domestic typoe stuff before I go out to a dinner tonight, will catch up soonSometimes it's hard to walk in a single woman's shoes - that's why we need really special ones!Total debt @ Oct 2008: £29,226.42 Credit Card- £[STRIKE]7493.56[/STRIKE] - £7243.56Weightloss : 0/34lbs0
