Hi Taxi, I started at WW two weeks ago and have exactly 10 stone to lose, I haven't cheated yet but I haven't been weighed as I couldn't make the class for the last two weeks, I had better have lost some weight by next Friday! I am with you, 20 lots of half a stone feels less daunting. Good luck to you, to us both really.

Of course you will do it, of that I have no doubt.
I do attend class and am following pro points plan now (was on the old one befoe Xmas). Have to say I am finding it ok and definately do better on the weeks I write down everything I eat.LBM Feb 2010 £62,700 Total Debt Jan 11 [STRIKE]£49,403.84[/STRIKE] £47,530.32.
(CC/LOAN = [STRIKE]36,378.98[/STRIKE] 35668.47. O/D = [STRIKE]1255.32[/STRIKE] 1212.35/[STRIKE]1999.78[/STRIKE] 1934.52, BUS = [STRIKE]9769.76[/STRIKE] 8714.98)
Challenge = Debt at 31/01/12 = £25k. 2011 Payments = £1,944.19/£24,403.84
There is no point in negative thought, it takes up time and energy which could be used in a positive, happy way!

Hello lovely Taxi lady,
Attempted to read 'that' thread but to be honest I didnt make it to the end of the original post. People are odd sometimes. I posted on that board yonks ago, advising someone against taking out a particular sub prime CC as I'd had previous bad experience with the same one, their continual limit increases & their extortionate apr being my main concern.
In return I received a heap of grief about how they only wanted the CC to improve their credit rating & would pay it all off each month & just because I couldnt control my spending, didnt mean that no one else could either ...
Less than 6 months later that same narky poster was complaining about how they'd got into trouble as the CC compnay had continually increased the limit on the card, they'd used it all up & now they were no longer able to pay the entire amount off each month . . . :whistle:
Wishing you lots of luck & determination with WW
