It's such a great feeling! I've already rejigged things without too much hassle to include YNAB once it runs out.
My plan is to do some online auctioning though and claw that money back! But if it doesn't work out at least I know I'm covered. :beer:0 -
Just made my first credit card payment since starting this diary! :T
£106.10 which was the minimum. I'm planning to pay in another £186.9 after I get paid on the 20th October. My CC payment isn't actually due until the 22nd October but I always worry about leaving enough time to clear so didn't want to do the lot together just in case.
Also, in my first week of tracking I lost 2.5 lbs! Huzzah. I think I'll add that journey to my signature as well so I can keep an eye on the lbs as they disappear.
More ££s and less lbs please! :rotfl:0 -

Feel a bit lazy only putting 8lb to lose by Christmas - My ideal weight is another stone after that:D, but I know that will not be possible in 12 weeks, so am taking baby steps:o I lost 7lb since December last year but have been stuck at my current weight for about 4 monthsbelleandthebudget wrote: »Definitely - that way we can cheer each other along! :j

Slow and steady is definitely the way to go. I have 4 stone to lose in total (I'm 3 and a half over my medically recommended weight) which is the only reason I'm aiming so high! I figure even if I don't hit target it'll still be a good start. 0 -

That's insane! Some serious inspiration though. 0 -
Sorry NOA worded that like a plonker. She is in the NST - September Squirrels thread on Debt Free Challenges. Or the October Triathlon
She is very inspirational indeed, and yet still I just had a fry up
