    Thanks for the updates everyone.

    Well done to everyone who has cleared something, and to Snailmail for becoming debt free!

    Sarah - my DH hasn't really had a lbm either

    Jacci - well done on the weightloss, you are getting very close now. Do you think you'll clear it all this year? I'm very excited for you :)

    Jwil, I would love to get rid of the last bit this year but we will see, I am going on holiday for a week in Nov and I do spend a bit more now so its that fine line between paying debt and living!! I certainly want rid by Feb 2013 at the latest as that is when I go to hospital again to make sure Im still fine and I think its quite fitting that I will be debt free then. A good omen if you like!!

    Hope all is going well with your pregnancy, when are you due?

    Happy Wednesday night all!!
