If My Pennies Were Pounds...

Don't think I will be making my % challenge target this month...still have £90 to put in to make my target and only £55 in the bank until payday next friday
Got a letter from the Student Loans people on Saturday saying that I'd overpaid my loan and would be getting a refund of £26.02
I totally thought I would be able to manage my % target this month, but I forgot that I got paid on the 23rd of December so it's effectively been a 5 week month and I've had to put in more petrol this month too...
On the plus side I've lost another 3lb this week so now 6lb/31lbVSP - £14.76 | Saving for a Deposit0 -

Thanks Jody, yes payday is taking forever to get here, still a week on Friday for me
But then it's only 5 days until my birthday
Don't even talk to me about petrol...I used to be able to get a full tank for about £45, I put in £40 a couple of weeks ago and it didn't even get me 3/4s of a tank! Put £20 in yesterday and it's just over 1/4 of a tank :mad:
About the weightloss, did you see The Biggest Loser last night? There was one couple that weren't eating enough and because of that they didn't have enough fuel to burn so didn't lose much weight at all...are you eating enough Jody?VSP - £14.76 | Saving for a Deposit0 -

I hate having to pay so much for petrol!!!! :mad: Had to put another £20 in the car last night as it just isn't lasting 2 minutes :mad:

Did you have a good birthday hun? :beer:
I saw that on the BL and someone mentioned not eating enough on the Wii weightloss thread! Have had a bit of a bad week so going to get my act together this weekend and make some plans. I've got a bit disheartened I think and then out of focus because of having to have a few days off due to 'injuries'
