Well a quick update on my savings & weight loss challenge...
Savings 2250 but had to use it to move home with in March 2012...thankyou MrB as without starting this initiative I would not have had enough saved to move to a fabulous new cottage
Weight loss...a failure on this one as 4 months gone & no change...oh well.
So I hope that you will be continuing this thread beyond its april deadline so that we can start again. I need to save 6k a year!! Wow!!:T:T0 -
Not done well on the weight loss on this challenge but I am still one and a half stone lighter than this time last year so thats good. Not saved the 2k but I wasn't expecting to do that and have saved more than I thought I would.
I find it encouraging reading other people's posts so please lets carry on.
Thanks to all of you and especially Mr B for starting it! xxTwo stone two grand four months challenge

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
