  • Thanks V. Much appreciated. We’ve been having a lovely week. Totally overwhelmed at how happy everyone is for us. So that’s me. I need to really really knuckle down now and get debt pod and also save for a wedding. It’ll just be a party to be honest with a wedding attached. I don’t want a big fuss. 
    So it’ll be back to menu planning etc for me as I need to pull my financial belt in tight. I’ve done it so many times before though that I’m sure it’ll be fine x

  • I certainly do 😱. I’m also doing good in the healthy eating. 17lbs off so far. Only about 100 to go 😊. In seriousness though. My fiancé doesn’t care what I look like but we got a picture taken when we got engaged and I hate it. He loves it and has it as his screen saver. My friends love it and I absolutely loathe it. Although I look really happy in it I am like a bus end. I want my wedding pics to have pride of place in my home so I need to sort myself xx

    Well done on the weightloss.  The fact that your fiance and friends love the picture suggests you look lovely :)  I know how you feel though and I am also in the 100lb+ club.  You can do it :)

  • Thanks jwil. I got another 4!off this week so I am in the right track.
    money wise I have set up all my direct debits for my 0% cards to ensure they are all paid off in time. £620 approx per month. It’ll be tough but I am determined. My belts well and truly tightened xx
