I did it! My first af Sunday in as long as I can remember :j:j

Do we calculate the snc weekly? If so I'll go for 5 including last night.

Well friends,

I am proud to announce that today I made my last payment to Payplan.

I am not declaring myself DF (yet) as I am waiting for confirmation from Payplan that my 4 creditors have been paid in full.

The biggest thing I did to aid my progress to being DF was to give up booze.

So after being AF for 85 weeks the £1700.00 I saved (£20 per week * 85 weeks) has meant I was able to lead a more comfortable existence than when I was drinking.

I am now TT and so wont be falling back into my old ways.

Good luck to you all !.

Brilliant muser! yes, we do the SNC weekly. It's like a small mini-target to keep us motivated.

Many congratulations anatonic on your AFness and DFness!:T

Hi, back from my grandmarly weekend with DGS who was 3 on Sunday. He's gorgeous, not that I'm biased!

Off to a good start with 3/29 AFDs.

Well done, Antonic, it must be a huge relief to be debt free. From here on, it's savings, savings, savings.
