    Failure is only someone elses judgement.

    Oooh this would be a good one for me! I might try it but I have the horrible combination of poor will power and being able to justify pretty much anything to myself. Oh dear!

    Oh, joy. Oh, joy. Oh, happy day! :j

    I work in a convenience store at the weekends and in one of today's papers there was a free chocolate bar ... and we didn't sell all of the papers! I checked very carefully, and chocolate isn't allowed into the recycle bin (it says so, very specifically). As I was the only one working today I felt duty bound to make sure the choccie bars weren't wasted. And they weren't. Oh, how they weren't! And I didn't spend a cent, so I am still eligible for the challenge.:D I am, aren't I? :o

    Which yet I have not seen;"
    I'd love to be a good example - instead, I am a horrible warning.

    I like this idea.

    Twice a week when I go to my second job I buy a bottle of coke and a chocolate bar cost equals 1.60 twice a week ( 12.80 a month)

    plus I buy chocolate in the main supermarket shop too- which is cheaper I guess but not helping with the not being fat.

    I am going to try to do enough exercise in a week to burn 1lb of fat - burn 3500 calories......and eat more sensibly. I shall subscribe to the thread!
