Hi Lucy
I would like to join in with this challenge – can I have a number please?
I have given a lot of thought to what my goal should be and as my 10% goal for Weight Watchers is 13 st 4 lbs I would like to set that as my challenge to get down to that for Christmas. This means that from my starting weight of 14 st 11 lbs I need to lose 21 pounds i.e. 1½ stone.
Do I need to set a money challenge as well?PigginSkint's debt free diary

Let me know what you decide. I just thought that it would be good to keep it DFW related, but it's not the point of the challenge. I want of over pay on my loan, but will be happy with enough money to buy myself a nice Christmas party outfit!Current debt - £16,300

Dragon, are you managing to eat a little bit more? Maybe that is what's kick started the weight loss?"I wasn't wrong, I just wasn't right enough.":smileyhea97800072589250
