On a quest for fitness now. Next week is last weigh in before the new year (eeekkkk). I'm no way going to lose 4lb in a week, but am going to try to see what can be done! Under 11st will be good!

So now - what is the horrific news I've been too scared to come on here to tell you about.

I've crashed the credit card. It all started with knowing I couldn't get everything - and money that should have come in, simply didn't. I have totally bashed CC1 to the limit. I know, I know, I know. In the New Year I am going to cut it up (why oh why did I keep it at all???)

I can't even update the total on Page 1 because I'm too scared too.

All I can say is that I have Xmas sorted, and I'm chuffed that I have, but at what expense. I was getting quite down by the kids constantly having to hear "we can't afford it" - I don't want to ever say those words to a child again!

After all the support I've had from this site, I feel as though I've let you guys down - and I'm sorry its taken so long to fess up.

The brakes are now mildly put on, but with 8 days and 7 gifts still to get, I fear there will be total carnage before the 25th December :-(

REDMADCURLS

Its done, forget about it!

You have let no-one down - and your kids will have a great xmas - priceless!

I've loved reading your diary updates - although I don't post all the time. Thank you for sharing it with us - you have inspired me to do the same next year - which includes the weight loss - what a terrific amount to lose - well done!!
