    It's great that you are enjoying the boards - I find so many helpful tips here and everyone is really friendly.

    I am also converted to HM meals - glad the kids and OH are enjoying your efforts :)

    Welcome to the boards!

    We've adjusted our lifestyle so much, thanks to OS and MSE that I've been able to decide to leave work and go back to University to do another degree (hence the user name). All without too much hardship - just being sensible, and I think our quality of life will be much better as well.

    Good luck - see the Grocery Challenge posts for help and encouragement - you're just in time to start September's!

    I've just done the same thing :) - start in two weeks time. I'm doing law and all of a sudden realising I am giving up the salary has really hit me! LOL.

    If you ever need to discuss 'student' stuff, just PM me.
