    Hmmm....not sure about that bit :rotfl:

    Have been to WW - half a lb on, which is fine - still lost 9lbs in 5 weeks so am happy with it overall, and I did lose more than expected last week.

    Must remain good though, because I want this to be a blip rather than anything worse. I have a meal out to Cafe Rouge with mum and sis on Sunday, but have been on the website and worked out what the points are for their meals.....so I know I can work on damage limitation for the rest of the week!

    So apart from today, where I have just had a chocolate brownie (colleagues birthday and his wife baked them, so it would have been rude not to!), and reserve the right to have another one later.....I will be on 14 points a day so that I can nosh on Sunday :D

    Hi Hypno, well ww wasn't as bad as you'd thought, your scales had you a lb up this morning.

    There's so many things that can make weight fluctuate a bit, so stick to it, and hope it goes better next time. e.g. Do you wear the same clothes each time? I'm not sure how ww works.

    Yup, I can cope with 1/2 lb this week. But I will remain focused. :) (once the chocolate brownies are safely consumed)

    I'd say £1.77 left is extremely efficient budgeting! Well done on all the 'free' money too. The difference in what you're paying for your debts now compared with last year is amazing! Go Hypno!

    My April budgets look extremely tight (and I'm surprised because???) - I'm trying to throw as much money as possible at the tesco 0% credit card which we ended up putting the car on. On the plus side....the new car (new to us) can now take all four bikes, the caravan, children and dogs so holiday will be easier / cheaper. Another good point - I've just bought all of DD's birthday presents with tesco clubcard vouchers too ... I know we don't get the x4 deal offer but at least this stops me spending 'real' money so it's more valuable to me doing it this way. I'm trying to have as many pollyanna moments as possible!

    I can't wait for the day figures and calculations aren't such a vital part of my life!

    OMG - I am loving your 'signature for stalkers' - I finally feel recognised!!!!:rotfl:

    No point in having a caravan if you haven't got a car that will take it anywhere!

    signature for stalkers - yup, I thought it apt for some of you :rotfl:

    Have checked the voucher board, but they all run out today - they expect people to pay full price over bank holidays!

    Mum's paying though, so very MSE for me:rotfl:
