Mine is from a friend of mine - she used to have an eating disorder and said one day she wanted to 'fade slowly' and i loved the saying.

My friend introduced this site to me and made me register. I wasn't keen, thought it was really sad, yes I know I was totally wrong and now i'm addicted! Anyway, I wouldn't come up with a name because I so didn't have a problem with debt so she used her initials and added a 1 because....erm...she just did. Since then I'd like to change my name but don't think I can.
PS....yes, since becoming debt free i've said thankyou, thankyou, thankyou to her xxJanuary budget
