That's great. Sounds like you are making real progress to move forward and get out of debt.
If you would like, there are some real budget-cutting wizards around here. If you post your numbers, you'll get some great tips and advice on how to trim things down and free up cash. Though if you've already found over $460/month in excessive spending, I'd say that's pretty darn good already.
