A little update..........
I've made an extra £50 so far this month, mainly ebay and selling other bits and bobs locally.
I've lost 8lbs out of the original 14lbs target I set myself so just over halfway there.
I'm remaining focused on trying to spend as little as possible.LBM Debt at: £47454:eek:Current total 26th Oct 2020 £ 25,808.040 -
