    Evening all !! A good day at school today, followed by a roast dinner at mums :D Just ordered a £10 tesco voucher from a survey site which I will use for food shopping and I will transfer the £10 into the mortgage pot.

    I had a letter today from the mortgage company about the overpayment I made last week, they have readjusted my monthly payments rather than reducing the term :cool: I will need to give them a call and see if I can get it changed.

    So, time for a bath then into bed ready to watch the Biggest Loser later on :)

    Evening all, been a bit hectic for the last couple of days so not been around, but managed a really early night last night and feel much better for it today :)

    Off to WW in a bit, don't think its been a good week but then I said that last week too, so we'll see how it goes. Nothing major to report right now, a few betting things going on in the background, I must remember to check my exp**t account on 1st feb for a bonus :)

    Since I came home I have whizzed round for an hour having a mad tidy up, hoovered through and done the ironing :D It was all starting to get out of control again so needed getting back on track. Today has been a nsd so far, but I will buy treats at WW so it won't last :o

    Thankyou Dangers, well I lost one pound this week, am happy with that, that makes a total of 6.5lbs in 3 weeks, which doesn't sound a lot, but does mean I'm almost half a stone lighter than I was three weeks ago which has to be a good thing :D

    I'm viewing this weightloss in several stages; the first stage is up until Feb 2nd (will explain why when we get there), I'm hoping to get to just around about 11 st 7 by then (on my scales in the morning), which means I need to go for a 1lb weightloss again this week ;). Then I need to start exercising again, am doing none at all at the moment. Spends = £6.20 on ww bars and magazine and then £9 in tesco express again (need to get this under control again :o)
