    Well the measurements are better than I thought they would be :D I have lost half an inch from everywhere apart from across my bust. :j I thought I might have lost in one area but no more so this has given me an extra lift this morning. Will be at the gym in an hour for my first full run on the treadmill for ages then have the weekend off.

    In other news, we have decided to eat in tonight rather than have our usual meal out. There is one place the Mr AJM loves but he doesn't want to get tired of it and everywhere else is quite expensive. We are out at the rugby tomorrow so will be eating out in Edinburgh which will be busy and not cheap.

    It is annoying saving my OPs until the end of the month as it feels I am not really posting about money stuff but I promise I am still checking my bank accounts just as much.

    30 minutes of running completed and so far no repercussions, I also did my sit up circuit again. I am exhausted and glad of 2 days off now.

    Treated myself to a cuppa and a cake in town earlier but paid on my card so will eventually get cashback.

    Off to look into yougov.

    Back to weekdays so need to drag my butt to the gym at some point today. I have the day off work and can't go anywhere until I have tried to blag one of the sky codes.

    Had a cheap day on Saturday. Went to the rugby courtesy of free tickets through work and then had a meal in a nice restaurant with good offers so 2 course meal for both of us for £26.

    Had a cookery demonstration thingy at ours yesterday so spent the whole of the day baking ready and then not so many people came, more for us to eat this week :D

    I thought I was going to have to order the sky without Mr AJM here but if I get a code I can maybe do it tonight when he is home, I hope so.

    Hope everyone had a good weekend and that Monday is not too tough xx

    We are now the proud owners of sky which will be fitted on Thursday. We don't celebrate Valentine's Day so that can be our joint present although not sure when it will all be live. We may find we don't use everything so we can always scale back in a year but we will be paying £56.25 for a package that should cost £87.75, it would be cheaper if we had a normal tv but at least we will be able to watch HD programmes now.

    Need to get in touch with sky as I couldn't find anyway earlier to pay our line rental up front and if we do we can save almost £5 so that is tomorrow's job.

    Managed to drag my butt to the gym to go on the treadmill earlier, I found it really hard going but I guess that is cos I was so tired. Hopefully tomorrow will be easier. I need to do 4 days of something in a row as I am away with work at the weekend and can't do anything while I am away.

    A month until we submit our MFiT total. I thought we were on track to meet our minimal reduction but I am not sure, I need to go and check my calculations.

    Need to go to the gym for a cycle and weights session. Going to try and go before lunch or I will struggle with motivation.

    Went to the gym earlier today and did 30 mins on the bike and weights. I am trying to build up strength in my legs so I can start some classes without injuring myself.

    Went to the bingo with a couple of the girls this afternoon as there is a massive discount, none of us won but we needed to cheer one of the girls up as she has just split from her partner. Not sure it worked but she wasn't on her own for that time which is a bonus.

    Went for a run before work this morning and did a sit up circuit. It was tough exercising before breakfast so not sure I will be doing it regularly.

    In money news, I bought a magazine and we went out for dinner so not an MSE day.

    Cycling and weights this morning at the gym. Measuring day tomorrow so will see if I have lost any inches.

    Mr AJM is teaching this evening so we ate between lessons, and A$da meal for 2 which was ok. We don't normally do Valentines Day but I am going away for 3 days tomorrow and we always have a nice meal before I go so it has doubled up.

    We now have Sky tv :D thanks :money:

    I am still here but not really felt like posting. Have had a terrible cold/cough for the last 2 weeks which has drained me, as a result I have done no exercise since my last post but hoping to rectify that tomorrow.

    In money news, I took 3 bags of clothes to one of the cash places and got £10 :money:

    OP time tomorrow, don't think it will be an amazing figure but will help all the same :D
