    Hi all :wave:

    Two things:

    1) Today was the first day I should have made lunch this month, but did not. :( As a result, I am going to add a '-£' figure to remind me the amount I spent.

    2) I am on holiday today, Friday and Monday so that means 3 days less than I had thought of in terms of buying lunch. :)
    Please call me 'Pickle'
    No More Buying Books: ???
    No More Buying DVDs: ???
    NMB Toiletries ??? and I've gone back for my Masters at the University of Use Ups!

  • solvent - thanks for that, i am thinking of starting a thread for those who are on the last leg but really struggling for the motivation.

    however somehow, due to sheer determination I can declare Monday was a NSD 3. i starved, i walked, i denied every temptation just for that NSD. proud of willpower that day as i could have fallen at any point. :j
