    Well done on getting motivated again. Understand how frustrating it must be to have an OH who doesn't 'get it'
    cheers

    Tracking my progress on these little spreadsheets keeps me on track. I think 'ooh if I dont spend on that then that might up my amount paid off by another 1%'

    Had to come home from work today - streaming with cold. Havent had one this bad in years. :(

    Anyone watching Im a celebrity....? I saw a book at work today called 'You are what you eat' by Gillian McKeith- Does that make her a cockroach then??:rotfl:
