What do we do when we fall? We get up, dust ourselves off and start walking in the right direction again. Perhaps when we fall, it is easy to forget there are people along the way who help us stand and walk with us as we get back on track.0

Just checking in as I've been away and then after that nothing to report. I've only managed to lose one more lb so that's a grand total of 2! Slightly better on the money front, mum played off the heating oil companies and saved me £22 and this week's E bay (less commission) is £66, so another £88 added to my total.0

Was surprised to find I had lost another lb this week. Woohoo. And still not got the cellophane off the Shred dvd yet.....
Bought a chest of drawers this week. Had no cash in the house and then thought oo what about my change pot. Had the 28 pounds in there to cover it so woohoo, another 28 for my total. Plus I sold another 10 pounds of stuff over the weekend. so another 38 pounds. Awesome.
But I am just waiting until relatives are no longer in the house so that I can REALLY start on doing this...
chevI want a job that is less than an hour driving away from my house! Are you listening universe?

4lbs off for me over two weeks so two achievements - I'm under 16 stone and lost a total of 1 stone 1lb :j:j
Done really well on the money front too - got a £70 refund from Amazon for something I bought last October (never thought they'd give it to me) and my sister gave me back £200 from her bonus as I lent her more than this before Christmas so am well on my way.
Probably going to ruin it all next week as am going for a cheese fondue on wednesday and will have to have wine with that0 -
I haven't been on for a while but have been trying to keep up with reading how everyone else is doing! You have all been doing so well.:beer:
I have failed miserably so far on the weight loss but have started walking to the train station the last couple of weeks instead of driving so have been walking 4 miles a day for two days a week. Hopefully this should kick start the weight loss (although eating loads of chocolate might hinder this!!)
However, I have done really well on the money saving/gaining so far. I have started a spreadsheet and my husband is now on board as well and helping with my money target. So far we have made an extra £1.024.68 in total!! This is way beyond my expectations so I am really impressed and has been used to pay off my credit card. Am hoping this month, I can do the same, although I have a feeling it won't be as high a total this month.DD1 born May 2002, DD2 born Dec 2005, DS born Dec 2008. Baby due May 2010! TEAM PINK!!
