    Work was ok, busy so the time flew by!

    Applied for my credit report, signed up for the 30 day free trial, just in case there is some PPI to claim! I don't think there is but no harm in checking!

    Treated myself to a top in Next and a fab coat from Asda(only £28!) - and it's gone so cold! Need to try on, am sticking to my 'only things that make me feel fabulous' rule :D - so back they go if they don't qualify!

    Quiet evening, have painted my nails and am about to fake tan before going to bed with US Elle (another treat, I always buy the September issue)

    Not much planned for the weekend but need to hit the gym! ;)

    My lunch date has been cancelled so no excuse not to hit the gym now! :p

    Nothing much else planned but may tackle the next stage of 'the great declutter' !!!!

    IoS7 downloaded on my phone and iPad - not sure I love it yet!

    Went to the gym yesterday but didn't do much else, just a lazy day reading :D

    Now trying to find the motivation to go to Body Pump this morning :p then need to do some housework and washing, then going to my Mum's to watch the match :D

    Not feeling on top if the world today but I'm trying to be positive and make some plans/changes!

    Seriously on the diet and fitness trail - I've ordered a resistance band set from Argos which I should collect tomorrow (and will pay for with Nectar points :D). Have also bought 2 weeks supply of XLS Medical - I tried them last year and they seemed to help - even if it's psychological! Just need to make the final push and get to target!

    Not sure how work is going to pan out - and I'm not really enjoying it anyway :(. Have just signed up for an online Wedding Planner course. Not sure if it will lead to anything but it's an area I'm interested in and will be something to put on my CV - worth the £30 investment I think?

    Overall then it's been a bit of a spendy day - but hopefully money well spent towards a better me in the future

    Crossed a few things of this week's (over long) to do list today as well - onwards and upwards!

    Fake it until you make it! :D
