    Thanks, I am happy just chipping away and seeing the total going down. I could probably pay it off a little faster but to be honest I like having some fun money (and shoe money :o) in my budget :) I am lucky to be happy where I am living so am not in a great rush/need to be debt free for a house/flat move - so plodidng along with the debt works right now :D

    Never mind about the weightloss...just keep taking baby steps in the right direction and you'll get there :)

    :j:j To the credit card though! Fantastic!! :D

    Though no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending

    Went to the gym and then went for a sunbed :D Then I did my shopping - and wasn't too spendy :o Had to get a mother's day pressie (bracelet and chocs) and a birthday pressie for my Dad (voucher) then I had a couple of Boots treats - a new mascara and some teeth whitening stuff. I am determined to be more groomed (even if I am fat :p)

    Wasn't really tempted by clothes - all that I like require me to be thinner :o Didn't even see any shoes I couldn't resist (only went to small, local shopping centre though)

    Have eaten well today and have treated myself to some lovely (but healthy) M&S food :) Got a magazine too so a lovely, lazy evening for me :)

    Oh no! Did you know that lots of chocolate and a wee dram before bed keeps it at bay? Don't think there's any medical evidence in that one, but short makes you feel better. xx
