Hi everybody! I've just noticed this thread - can I join you? I used to do the lunch loggers' challenge but that sort of fizzled out so for 2009 I've been keeping my own log of how many No Spend Lunches I achieve in my signature. I'm not doing too badly this way but it would be better if there were people to own up to when I do spend.
So for February- yesterday I brought in pasta made with a mystery sauce found in the freezer from a previous batch-cook - turned out to have red peppers in and can't rmember the last time I used those in a pasta sauce!
Today I wasn't so good and spent £2.25 in the canteen on Jacket potato and a Boost...Weightloss: 14.5/65lb0 -
Hiya, welcome to the thread! Don't worry about occasional slips, as long as you're trying not to spend too much you'll be doing great
And £2.25 for jacket pot and a chocolate bar is hardly anything!

Yes, join in. The more the merrier.
£2.25 on a Jacket and Boost is very naughts - Slap your hands and face. If you need choc, get it in packs of 5 from the supermarket.
Good luck... and welcome.0 -
