Mr B,
Some wins, some losses and a whole £1,800, sub £300k debt balance, -1.29 on the BMI, and 8lbs down! And too many new virtual friends to even contemplate.....I;m sure the Matrix ladies will forgive you!
Congratulations! You should be massively proud of yourself,

Is: The Matrix ladies putting the hex on me cos this thread is looking likely to overtake theirs on the amount of page views in the next couple of weeks.
We won't; we believe that cooperation is more potent than competition.And we have seen all kinds of new kids!:rotfl:
Seriously, though, you are doing really well. Since you are becoming a runner (and my negative wealth starting position was similar to yours) this is a marathon. Giving up at mile 3 is not an option; you can give up at mile 16 but there are only 10 more miserly miles left. Keep it up. (I am at mile 12 btw)

Fantastic stats for the month there. Ok so some have gone up but overall a reduction. As for the Matrix ladies. FW sums us up. We are all for a bit of Healthy Competition though, there is nothing like a bit of healthy competition to motivate a soul sometimes. So hmmmm Mr B vs FW in a marathon - would hate to choose between the two.
ps, dont mess with FW she is a scary lady when she wants you to listen to her (in a good way though).Some days there aren't any trumpets, just lots of dragons. Courage doesn't always roar. Sometimes courage is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying, I will try again tomorrow -- Mary Anne Radmacher0 -
Da iawn MrB - totally agree with debt seems to get worse before it gets better - I was beginning to get worried it was only me and I was doing something wrong - but I can see now where I am going so next month will be much better
Fab weight loss too. But best news has to be that not only does Mrs B love her B*den ( a weakness I share ) but also Glee! Unfortunately we dont have sky so me and DD2 will be watching on line hopefully
