    rb6ac and LilMissMup I'm a short @r$e too! I wear 30 inch trousers and my mum wears 24 inches and my auntie's even shorter than that! Clearly we just fed this latest generation way too well!

    I've told my daughter that she'll have to wait til after next Child Benefit pay day for new school trousers and she's cool with that - but she did mention that she'll also need new jeans as well OR new boots to tuck the too short jeans into so it doesn't show that they're ankle swingers! :D :rolleyes: Bless her she only asks for what she needs though so I can't complain.

    Dodged the bullet again today so it's 19 out of 22 on day 25 for me but tomorrow I have my free Abel & Cole veg box delivered along with some stuff that I actually had to pay for - so tomorrow won't be an NSD.

    This will leave me in the position of having 3 days left and needing 3 NSDs to make it.... :eek:

    WooHOo to the new Trophy holders since I last posted - V well done peeps!

    Love Jacks xxx :D

    Hi Folks,

    Managed another NSD day today, that takes my total to 3. Only two more to go. I will not be able to manage one tomorrow as I have to put my car in for it's first service.

    Hi Everyone

    Just wanted to declare that I have met my 8/8 NSD target!:j

    Feeling very pleased with myself. I'm not sure that I have achieved on the Grocery Challenge. I have spent too much on meals and snacks. I gave in to take aways and an impromptu meal out. AHHHHHH!

    Considering that this is my first proper month at living life the MSE way I think I have achieved alot. I have also learned so much that I will apply to next month so it can only get better.

    I'm off to updated my signature.

    p.s. Is this a site full of short a**es? I'm 5'1" on a good day!
  • Stayed at home today and did housework so got another NSD so thats me at target 15/15 - yipee

    may even manage another couple at weekend as I am not going anywhere!

    TF xx
    Peace will be mine
    could do better - must try harder

    Well done for everyone on reaching targets!!! :)
    Mine is not going so well. :( Was planning to have my 5/6 NSD yesterday and managed till about 8pm, going without snack all day, but when coming back from training, I nearly ran out of petrol!:eek: So had to put a £5 in... :(
    So I still need 2 more to reach my target and today or tomorrow won't be one of them so have 3 more days to do it. Can I make it? We'll see....
