How I did it: i read a few financial blogs in the past that talked about cd laddering with your emergency fund. i sadly, do not have an emergency fund anymore, but i wanted to start a cd ladder regardless to get it started so that when they mature, maybe i will have more money by then to add to new ones. anyways, it is pretty simple to set up a cd ladder with ing. they basically do all the work for you.

How I did it: i have needed a new larger skillet for sometime.but i really wanted a wok instead. and i found a great fried rice recipe online i wanted to try also. so i found a really nice 60 dollar one at macy's marked down to 20 dollars one day while i was working. it's a fancy brand one (anolon i think). Read how I did it…
steadily taking it off for good.
i haven’t actually been this weight since i was at least 19.
so about 7 years or so?
i’m mastering my body’s metabolism day by day.
i think by the end of summer i may be at least another 20-30 pounds smaller. my goal is 190, but i plan to continue to lose from there… just at a slower speed.
