    Hi all, another £1 to Barclaycard today.

    I'm not working now until Wednesday. :j

    Well done on paying off Capital One Boobylou. :beer:

    Well done on starting shred psycho. :T I'm on day 8 (would have been 9 but missed yesterday) and definitely feel a bit fitter than I did at the start. i.e. I'm not gasping for air and waking up aching all over everyday. :o Still go bright red though and quite sweaty (but not as much as before), mmm attractive. :rotfl: :eek:

    OH sat down on the couch and watched me doing it the other day. :eek: I just kept shouting "Don't look!" "Stop watching me!" I think I was his entertainment though. :eek: :mad: He kept wanting to tell me I was doing it wrong, I could see it, then he would close his mouth at the murderous glint in my eye as I slogged through the torture. :rotfl:

    Has Green been about lately? Don't remember seeing her posting but that could just be my memory (which resembles a sieve).
    Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts. Car loan 1 £11,174, Car loan 2 £5,532, CC 0% BT £780. Debt Free Diary to try & keep spending in check.
  • Well that's me done for a week.
    PAD of £31 to one of my credit cards.
    I've also shifted a couple of chunks of debt recently to lower interest rate debts. I've shifted them onto cards that already have retail debt on them. Taking a calculated gamble here. The cards I've shifted the debts onto will be giving me the fixed rates until late this year/early next year respectively. Hopefully, around that time, the card companies will be changing the payment hierachies so that the more expensive debt is paid off first. It will still mean that the debt that has been switched will incur a standard rate for those cards but at least they will get paid off more quickly. It will give me the opportunity to launch an attack on the higher rate debts.
    Of course i's and t's haven't yet been dotted and crossed so there is an element of gamble to it and I may yet come unstuck.

    Hello All, Right Ive been paid and received my bonus so what better way to spend it than to pay off some of my debts:) Here goes:

    Loan1: £185.01
    Loan2: £20.00
    CC: £6.20

    Total £211.21

    At last i'm below £4000 on my loan I thought this would never come as I started at over £11,000, onwards and upwards I feel even more spurred on to clear this now...:)
    Thanx

    Has Green been about lately? Don't remember seeing her posting but that could just be my memory (which resembles a sieve).

    Sashy, Green is on holiday - sunny Spain i think.

    Morning all - weekend at last eh. Been a funny old week had to go to dr on Wednesday as had a few dizzy spells at the beginning of the week. Got a full MOT and blood tests so waiting on results Monday. She thinks it may be just an iron deficiency - certainly not from starving myself :D

    Another 10.00 to cap one please Angelic and thanks for all your counting up this month. Especially like the 'special mention' even though i didnt manage to get one:o Maybe we should have this every month.

    Food wise not at all good yesterday so i'm not going to embarass myself further by letting you all know how bad, however today is a new day and i have already planned my meals for the day.

    Enjoy your Saturday folks.:A
