Really? Bear in mind, I'm very active, and 2000 calories is often more like one meal rather than my whole food intake. @Katie ~ $75 a month!? Really?

With the $200 you said you were able to pay right now and cutting out the above items and you'd be able to make the $1000 payment with no problem. Now, if you were to continue to work with your credit card companies on reduced interest rates (can't they extend the hardship program?) and cut the above items out of your budget and apply $1000 p/mo to these debts, you'd have them wiped out totally by April, 2010. Think about it. Okay -
