  • Confession time - I bought black and purple V-neck jumpers from DP's but they were actually work-wear essentials. I needed a black V-neck and it was 2 for £25. My old black V had an un-repairable hole under the arm and you could see my hairy armpits!! That's my excuse and I'm sticking with it!

    Toiletries are not going down at all, think someone is sneaking in and re-filling them. Been to the gym twice last week and going tomorrow and Saturday, haven't managed a third session (yet). Well done everyone else x

    Well done everyone- it is motivating to see how people are doing.
    This challenge is really helping me change my habits. I never thought I'd crack the Diet Coke buying but at the moment I'm doing really well. I'm also starting to feel that my shopping habits have actually changed as a result of the challenge- I'm no longer champing at the bit to buy some of the things. When I end up browsing in a clothes shop when I'm in a splurging mood I am increasingly looking around and just thinking I don't need this.....even when there are tons of bargains. I hope it lasts!

    Hi all,

    Have used up a Simple moisturiser which was ok but I prefer a tube of moisturiser that you can cut open, this is a hard bottle and I'm sure there are loads left but I can't get it out, any other tips?
  • Used up the following

    Molton Brown Seamoss Bath Grains thing which I have had for ages - very nice as I chucked it in the bath!

    Philip Kingsley Elasticiser sachet

    2 face mask sachets

    35 items listed on ebay (8 are skincare and makeup) only a few bits of skincare left to list then it is all mine to use up unless I decide to declutter some more on there.

    Nearly at the end of a few more things so will pop on to continue to using up pots and tubes tales!

    Everyone else sounds like they are doing well - yipee!!!!

    Am failing a bit on the exercise front - will need to pick myself up a bit on this to try an get rid of the extra roll of fat I've developed!

    I'm also failing on the excercise front - I have just bought an excercise DVD so will start on that tomorrow.... didn't do it today as I was walking with the dog for over an hour, and I walk pretty fast so should burn a couple of calories :)

    Was doing well with the challenge until I tidied up the cupboard... the plan was to discover what Xmas prezzies I already had, but also found a Body Shop Papapya shower gel and a travel size Molton Brown body wash :o
    Otherwise, the only thing that has built up is OH's deo, and thats because I bought it three weeks in a row (on offer) because I'd forgotten I'd bought it the weeks before :o:D

    I just finished a sample a friend gave me of Dermalogica Extra Firming booster and it was very good. I actually wish my m8 hadn't given it to me as now i want to buy it:o, but good sense has come forth and i definitely can't afford $83 for 30ml of product so it will have to go on my wish list for when I am debt free (but by that point I will probably not be able to face spending that amount of money ;)) Oh well it is certainly not the end of the world and as I still have 6 serums to use up i am hardly missing out:D
