  • I can't believe how organised I am this year, I am usually running about in December buying in all the gifts on one wage or on my CC.

    Feels good to be a bit better organised this year, long may it continue.

    It's still early enough in the year to start PSL, just aim for a gift here & there. Always keep a wee eye out if you see something in the sales & pick it up if you know it would suit someone & you can afford it.

    Just went for a wander round Superdrug there, had about 17.00 worth of make up in a basket then thought WAITTTTT do I really need this. Answer was no so it all went back. Bought face wipes which I needed anyway, on sale so bought 2 packets for the price of one :money:

    Oh freaking yeaaaaaaaaaah

    Hey, just been reading your diary! Well done on reducing your debt AND having a life!

    We're off to see Harry Potter next May 2017! My OH bought the tickets in October 2015. I love HP. So I'm glad you said it was good, can't wait!

    Oh you are going to love it!

    I am hoping that they extend the run of it, I would love to take my niece for her 18th when it comes around, love to plan ahead :rotfl:

  • Just realised that the 100.00 bank cashback won't be coming into my account until 20 August 2016. Oh well :rotfl:

    Can live without it this month anyway so will be fine.

    In work today from 8am until 6.30pm, been to the shops this morning & spent about 10.00 so not much left for the remainder of this month to be fair.

    Will still survive though have food in the cupboards so essentials are covered just means no more treats this month.

  • Just had some yummy soup for lunch there.

    Another 3.5 hours to go then I am out of here. Home alone for the next 3 nights so just gonna go home, have dinner & get into bed with a DVD I think. Don't usually sleep to well when I am home alone so gonna be a tired lady by the end of the week.

    WW tomorrow morning, really hoping for another loss this week, fingers crossed! Go there first thing in the morning to get it out of the way. I am tempted to have a subway for dinner tonight to save me cooking, will be about the same SP as my dinner I have planned but not keen on having the bread the night before WI, will see if I am tempted enough when I leave work.

  • Good luck for the weigh in tommorow. Sending you good thoughts. xxx

  • Good start to the day, lost 1lb at WW this morning. 18lbs gone forever. This is the most I have ever lost EVER. Usually always quit before I get to this stage but not this time I am in in for the long haul.

  • That's so good. Well done Dolly. Have you done that thing where you hold a big melon or pumpkin that weights 18 pounds and remind yourself what you have achieved. Its quite powerful. I was in ww in a past life. Needed to lose 28 pounds, I lost 7 slowly and the 21 remainder is a work in progress.
    You continue to be my inspiration! xxx

  • It really is.

    Feel so fat today though, I have stayed within my SP this week but I have had subway for dinner the last 2 nights. DH is away with work & I have just been so lazy. The bread has made me all bloated though so won't get into a habit of doing that.

    Also it has cost me more money than I wanted to spend this week.

    In work all day 9 till 6.30pm & didn't bring lunch.

    Might have a subway for lunch then have my carrot & coriander soup for dinner later.

    Are you just calorie counting now PSL or are you still following WW??
