Andan – great to see you again, I have been reading your blog – glad life is treating you well
Debt obsessed – that sounds like a good trade off!
Hello to everyone else who posts today
Today I have/will:
• Meals from storecupboards
• Went shopping with a list and only bought the necessities
• Found a watch rather than buying one – needs a new battery but that is all
• Had a body stat done at the gym – part of my membership and I have not had one for ages
• Off to body balance this evening but recruited a friend yesterday…..parking should only be £1 and I have already filled up a water bottle to take with me
• Chill as it is Sunday – will watch a film with hubby and plan my week (I am starting a strict 12 week diet and exercise program as I have found out that my body fat % is 53% :eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::o:eek: )
• Work on my 101 list
• Think of way’s to blag a gym session when I am in Liverpool
Think that is about it…..have a great day everyone

Hi everyone - hope you have enjoyed the weekend. I nearly had a NSD yesterday - OH took me to lunch. Then at tea time I stupidly popped to the shops and spent £9 on , well, carp basically. Am v angry with myself. :mad: Did a bit better today though.
1) Scratch 2 x 10p
2) Went to car booty and spent 20p on an Emma DVD.
3) Returned a broken item to BHS and spent £2 on a pair of lovely embroidered pillow cases - originally £8 each.
4) All meals from stores. Made Irish Colcannon to use up potatos, spring onions and cabbage.
5) Entered a couple of comps.
6) Took T to Adventure Wonderland for the afternoon using our season tickets, and took our own drinks.
7) Will watch On Thin Ice tonight for free entertainment and read my book.
Will the rain ever end???? We haven't had one decent day this summer holiday so far -fingers crossed this changes soon.
See you tomorrow,
