I have really slipped with my goals & MSE generally this last week or so, just so busy at work (year end plus a merger) that I just collapse in a big heap at the first opportunity.

So back to basics with my goals this week

Shopping - aim for £50 per week
Lunches - always take food to work, not buy it !
Monitoring - Load MS Money & start using it.
Exercise - Foot has stopped hurting even though no sign of awaited op - so start increasing exercise sensibly. (stop using the lift but no jogging yet)
Cooking -Make more treats for children. When I'm too busy we just get dinner, no flapjacks etc - must try harder.

Have a good week everyone.
