A spend day for Wednesday. Needed sugar and paracetmol. Not feeling too great, keep wanting to throw up and feeling hot. On a positive, I have FINALLY got somewhere with my Payday Loan debts. Txtloan agreed a payment of £50 a month until December, so at least my bank account won't take a huge hit each month. Just waiting for the others to get back, and ring Wonga.0

Hi Everyone,
Thought I had better check in....not been a great week this week NSD wise....Monday and Tuesday were no good! We needed a few bits of shopping on Monday and then somehow forgot what we went to the supermarket for and then had to go back on Tuesday - arrrgggghhh!!
Anyway yesterday we barricaded ourselves in and so I can report my 6th NSD day yesterday so I am half way there! Not sure if today will be one yet as I am off to the office...which is two doors away from the coffee shop....they have ...cakes... oh dear!
Lotti - I'm sorry that your sister was unkind to you and that things are at a low point. I know sometimes as siblings we say things that we don't mean (particularly when they are in the same living space!!) and I hope that this is the case.
:grouphug: to everyone who needs them on this dark and dank January morning!!

Morning everyone!
Thank you everyone for your support you lovely lot. Not sure what I'd do without this thread to rant on!
Saga is continuing, apparently my sister feels she has been wronged as I called her a horrible c*w and I burst into tears after her, ahem, outburst... so she thinks I should apologise to her. Baffling. And yeah, it is just the wrong week for her to be like this. Still, going to go and hide out at the gym/pool until 12 then she will have left for work... just breakfast to negotiate in the meantime!
Also have to go and remind someone they were supposed to call me about a job, and pay some money into the bank, and not go to the book shop, charity shops or anywhere else to let those precious pennies free. :cool:“Obstacles are those frightful things you see when you take your eyes off your goals.”

Up to NSD 6 Woo hoo!
No spend on Sunday (DH bought my Sunday paper for me - hope that counts) had to spend on Monday so tried to do it all! Two days in a row for Tuesday & Wednesday (first I've ever managed)
Going out tonight with some old work colleagues so a spend but I'll put some gold dust in my car (thankx Mr M) so hopefully manage another couple in the next few days.
I've noticed that this year I'm being a bit more disciplined - making sure if I have to spend I do it all on the same day - its amazing how it stops you buying all those little 'impulses'
Big hugs to all who need them :grouphug:Small victories - sometimes they are all you can hope for but sometimes they are all you need - be kinder than necessary, for everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle0 -
NSD No6 yesterday hurrah:j Ran out of loo roll so looks like I will have to pop into MrT today, will try to ignore everything else though;)Feb GC £80 per week (Well I'm gunna try:whistle:)
Diet starts today(31/12/16)! Only 18lbs to lose:eek:
4/2/16 - 13lbs to lose:D
11/2/16 - 12lbs to lose:D
3/3/16 - 11lbs to lose:D0 -
I've managed 2 in a row, but not the three I'm hoping for - yet! I've done 5NSD's so far so hopefully should get to my target at the end of the month for the first time ever! I'm 40 at the end of the month, and am having a smallish party at the house, so I'm also trying to find bargains to buy so that I don't end up with a huge expense.0
