    Thats great! Yes you have more to go, but you have to lose the weight one pound at a time. Remember the positive thinking :)

    Great stuff, well done :T
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort
    :) Mortgage Balance = £0 :)

    Ah days of not leaving the house. When I was younger I quickly got cabin fever. Now I have young children I fully embrace not needing to be anywhere other than home!

    Also used to dislike coming home to an empty house, I now embrace that too!

    Isn't it funny Cath. When DD2 was at brownie camp I felt like I had lost a limb.

    Great weight loss. You'll be riding again ....soon!
    Made it to mortgage free but what a muddle that became

    In the event the proverbial hits the fan then co-habitees are better stashing their cash than being mortgage free !!

    Oh Watty would that I were!
    Not a NSD. £14 spent on 4 long sleeved shirts for DD2 for school. She refuses to wear long sleeved t shirts underneath - born into a house with no heating. Refuses to feel the cold.
