    No comment re essays............last study group session tomorrow - ugh!

    A massive 4 yes four lbs off at ww today, I am truely delighted, was hoping for 1.5lb. Got me another silver seven sticker and more importantly total weight loss is 23.5lbs. Exactly 14lbs to go and I am at gold. I now weigh 11 stone 13lbs...............so if asked (and why would I be) I can say 'who me, I am in the 11 stone area! YEAH HA!! (Can you tell I am pleased, I haven't weighed this little in 4 years!!)

    Quidco money in account today and duly out to Halifax. Still have money in my account - a first ever for this late into the month - yes I know it's only the 3rd!
    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!

    Is very envious of the weight loss. I am upping my exercise level but not much luck yet. I am trying to tell myself that it is because I am turning fat into muscle HA HA. But the flabby tummy ring out the front is telling me otherwise.....SIGH
    I want a job that is less than an hour driving away from my house! Are you listening universe?

    I'm hoping that Reddie's silence means that she's busy scribbling essays somewhere. :)

    Well done, m'dear: it will be so worth getting them out of the way! :T
