    Overtime is always good! Esp when you know its going towards a good thing like overpaying the mortgage (or in my case the blinkin credit card so I can start saving again).

    I've found that I actually have a fair bit more will power than I thought recently, been playing with a diet app on my phone which so far has helped me lose 7lb - not quite sure where from as all my clothes still feel horribly tight but I'll trust the scale - but just before I started I brought home a pile of bars of Galaxy Cookie crumble as they'd gone out of date. Got 12 in the cupboard still and one in the fridge of which I've only eaten a couple of squares in the last 3 weeks

    I have an app on my phone too. It's not the official one (which is currently hopeless for Andriod phones) but works pretty well. I'm registered for WW online now and the unofficial app was pretty good at working out the points in things. I'm going to keep using that "on the go" and input into the WW website of an evening.

    Pennies are looking pretty good - although it's still 15 days until payday. We're away for a few days of that and will be spending holiday budget. When I get the rent money at the start of July I'll have hit one of my personal savings targets for my ISA :D It's hard to believe how far I've come sometimes, and I wouldn't have been able to do it without this site, and specifically the PAD thread. :T :T
