    It's always such a boost to clear the o/d and start seeing a balance in positive figures :D

    Sooooo close to 33.33%! Hoping to get there this month.

    Going to hit my next target of sub £15k next month too.

    I'll need to set some new goals soon...

    I'm so close to 33.33% I can almost taste it!

    Came into an extra £40 today - put £25 towards the overdraft but am feeling very guilty about not putting it all in...:o

    Hey, I think you deserve a little treat with the other £15. You have come so far in such a short time. :)

    Made it to 33.33% cleared!

    It feels like a real milestone.

    Me and DH indulged ourselves last night and looked at some houses for sale. Our goal after becoming DF is to move. It was fun to take a look at what we might want to buy - motivating for sure.

    Well done! :T

    It's good keeping your motivation up by focusing on what you can have/do when you're DF :)
