Well done on losing half a stone. I know you would prefer to have done it without pain, but it sounds like you've embraced your low fat way of life and it's really benefitting you. Has the pain stopped, or is it still bothering you?Start Date: 27/11/2010

I'm doing ok with it at the moment, although I felt crap all day on Friday and finished the night with rampant vomitingI felt much better once I had been sick though and ate like a horse yesterday
All healthy stuff though.
I got to use the internet at my friends house today, so all banking done. I have cleared out my accounts in preparation for payday tomorrow.
My loan is now down to £1383.53 which isn't too bad. I reckon I can get to £1000 this month if I'm good. We'll see how it goes!
Spends today have been £1.25 on a bottle of water and some Skittles for the movies. We went to see Salt. If you're not seeing it for free then don't bother0 -
Morning all!
Hope everyone is ok and full of the joys of Monday
I'm in the middle of abject terror as I'm off to Belfast tomorrow for work and HATE flying at the best it times, but rain and gales are forecast. Bah. I'm not even meant to have any booze because of the sodding gallstones :eek:
I've been paid, but am still avoiding doing internet banking on.my phone, so am aiming to be in work early to let me PAD and figure out my finances. Even though I never have money for very long, I like that payday now makes me feel in control of my money. It certainly didn't use to make me feel like that0 -
I'm back
Couple of minutes spare before work, so internet banking has been done and the finances are now thusly:
PAD/Spends = £300
Entertainment = £30
Groceries = £155.92
Purse = £4.18
Outstanding loan = £1297.83
I paid £85ish to my loan today, as although I had more money than I would normally have I'm wanting to make sure that I pay for any weekend away that we go on with my PAD/Spends account and not with my "Debt Pot". I'm going to make small PADs until we know what we're doing. :A0 -
Congratulations on being sub 1.3K to be debt free this year is amazing!!!!!!!!!

Thanks DT!
Today I have spent £2.18 on Groceries (Sausage rolls for Mr Fresian and bananas for me) and £1.18 on fruit to have with my lunch. It's awfully expensive eating well :rotfl:
I've taken £50 out of my PAD account to cover any expenses when I'm in Belfast. I don't think I will need it all, but know I will have taxis to pay for and claim back. I'm going to have to keep a careful eye on all these expenses as this could get very confusing....:o
I have also realised the cost of having no internet - I checked my mobile bill online this morning and have two weeks till the bill is produced and have already used my months allowance of internet and have spent another £5 on top of that :eek: I'm going to have to try and really restrain myself....0 -

Morning all!
Yesterdays spends:
Groceries as noted, 99p on a cup of tea with a friend at lunchtime and £8.70 on a night out with Mr Fresian - we went to see Henry Rollins at the Fringe and the money spent was on cups of tea and chipsI only ate a few chips, as I'm still trying to be good, but they were awesome!!
Money
PAD/Spends = £240
Entertainment = £30
Groceries = £153.74
Purse = £41.13
Outstanding loan = £1295.65
Now, as promised.....
:heart2::heart2::heart2::heart2:I love Angelic!!! :heart2::heart2::heart2::heart2:
Myself and Mr Fresian were wanting to go away somewhere nice for our 10 year anniversary in a couple of weeks, and thought about the Lake District, but the hotel I really loved was £350 for two nights :eek: Luckily the lovely Mary works for that chain, and we're now on a very MSE rate :j I can't wait to go away and really relax for a couple of days. You're the best!!!
Right, work calls, have a good day all!0 -
