    How much do you have to lose?

    I still have to loose...nah, I'm not gonna tell you!! :D

    Well if I go by the BMI/weight machines I have to lose loads - about 4 stone :eek: but I don't want to actually lose as much as they suggest lol!
    I want to lose about 2 stone, get back into a size 12!

    At least you are able to get away for a bit Paul, thats half the battle isn't it. You just have to make sure you use it well and relax - try not to spend the whole time worrying.

    Good luck for today FF - for some reason I thought your interview was yesterday :o

    Padding £1 for me today, there may be more but I haven't checked my interent banking yet!

    morning all - FF GOOD LUCK!! you know we will all be thinking of you.

    Feel a bit :( this morning, I have been so good with budgeting for a while now and this morning I logged on to see I was in the red!!!! Had completely forgotten that my council tax 1st payment came out today. I am gutted! Have transfered some money from savings in to get me out of the red - I will NOT pay OD fees!! but feeling a bit pants about it as I felt I was finally getting somewhere.

    Oh well onwards and upwards - tomorrow is another day!

    Haha I guess there are no quick fixes then (other than leaving the clingfilm on permanently lol). Guess we'll just have to do it the hard way :(

    Talking of clingfilm, i've got my arm wrapped in it at the mo.
    Having some tattoos removed this morning and i'm trying some Emla cream to numb the area.
    You have to apply it in a thick layer then wrap clingfilm round it and leave it for at least an hour.
    Feels really weird, but if it means i dont feel any pain then i'm all for it lol :o
    Errrr...come back later ;)

    Yeah, but they all have different ways of rating you and also take into consideration how long you've had your job, how long you've been at current address, whether or not you are on the electrol roll etc etc.

    The other thing to consider is your debt to income ratio. If it is quite high, and in this economy, they are no longer likely to lend.

    Sucks, I know :(

    Thanks Euro.

    I really don't know what it is, have been in my job 6 years, on electoral role, debt ratio to income is probably 1/3rd ish. I have a good income. Only think I can think of is that I move quiet often, need to for work, so probably has had an effect :(

    Thanks though hun.
