One piece of very good news this weekend is that i have finally got my ebay account sorted out and linked to paypal again, and it seems to be working properly, so soon I can start making my millions again on there :rotfl::rotfl:
In fact, I need to start thinking about a summer holiday challenge as its only 25 more school days to go :j

Been missing in action for a day or two, had a tough time yet again with ds and then we had a family meeting last night to discuss dad, so all in all its not been a great couple of days. However, am feeling a bit more positive tonight and thought I ought to do an update on here as I have neglected it rather recently.

I had 3 letters from the csa today, basically letter 1 said he should be paying me £71 a week from mid-March, letter 2 said he shouldn't be paying anything now as he's not working again, letter 3 said he should be paying £5 per week now towards his arrears. The arrears currently stand at £718.47, which would be lovely but will take a while at £5 a week :cool: The £71 amount is wrong too as they have taken off a deduction for him having ds two nights a week when I told them 2 months ago he now has him only 1 night. Their computer says this too but for some reason the calculation was done wrongly :mad: It should have been over £80 per week. So, £5 a week, really gonna be living it up on that aren't I ?? :cool:

Tonight is also WW night, and basically I am going there to almost start again, I have been beyond rubbish recently, just cannot get my head in the right place with it at all for some reason

Been to WW, put 2.5lbs back on over the last two weeks although tbh I have eaten so much junk that I expected it to be worse than that ...

Tomorrow is crouchys birthday so am planning on popping over there as a surprise for a couple of hours, mum is looking after ds after school tomorrow night so I will be able to see him for a while then

I'm the same - whenever stuff is running amok in my head, I find it impossible to concentrate on eating healthily. The problems I have are way different to yours but still affect me and I know deep down that until I sort them out properly (and by that, I mean not a sticking plaster over a big wound), then I'll never lose the weight.:(

I'm much the same regarding sorting problems.

If only I could sort my head then I'm sure my life would follow suit -

healthy eating + exercise = weight loss
tidy & clean house = organised
etc

Just never have the time!

Any tips?
