ha, bless ya Lou!
Had some great news yesterday too..... will put it in a nutshell - we are £168,000 better off! Ha be good if it was simple as that, but heres the longer, more accuate version. Our mortgage is up for renewal in setember as the 2 year fixed rate runs out, but was got a letter from our provider saying they will knock our mortgage by 25% as long as we re-mortgage to another lender before 31st July, so we've consulted our financial advisor and he's found us a mortgage where we pay £800 a month (same as what we were paying anyway) but we knock the mortgage down to 15 years (from 28 years) saving us over £168,000! we couldnt believe it! (oh and thats borrowing £10,000 on top!) We've found out its cos the company has gone bust and the recievers need as much money in asap! some happpy storys in such troublesome financial times! xxx

How are you finding LL? I started the week doind Atkins and by Monday night I had decided just how lucky I was doing SW and it made me think that I had been crazy to stop this diet! So on Tuesday I started SW again.
Your losses look great so far!

Same for me on Slim Fast. Do something different for a while and you soon appreciate SW even more!
thanks guys, your support and encouragement means a lot, Im finding it really easy still SA, I cannot convey how easy Im finding it at the moment, dare I say its easier than SW in the way that thers no planning, no deciding and better still - no temptation! Although obv unlike SW its not a long term life plan xxx
Well the maintenace side of LL is the life plan, but obv I cant comment on how I'll find that as Ive not started it yet (i wish i was at that stage lol) i'll see how i find that, but Id always consider going back to SW once Im at target and finding a way of balancing my weight. whats everyone doing this weekend? we're at a wedding evening do tonight, xxx
