Hey well done Trixie! :T

Day 11/19 for me please. Had cereal bar & yoghurt for breakfast. Sandwiches and a cheapo pot noodly think for lunch as did not have time to make soup last night. Not as nice as homemade soup but it is keeping me warm. Cold is keeping me from shops which is good as another NSD yippee :j

WantToBeSe I am so impressed that you have still managed to make a lunch the past 2 days :T. When I have days as carp as you had I stuggle to keep on track and often splurge to try to cheer myself up. :mad:

KittieJ I hope your appointment went well, enjoy your cuppa and thanks for all the support

The consultant will write his report :cool: just glad he didn't say I needed another MRI scan :j

Thanks everyone for the support

I am feeling much better today. Nellie, i normally give up meal planning or being frugal at the 1st sign of any stress too I just knew that i couldnt afford to with such a huge bill to pay. But i am still pretty pleased with myself

I am now upto 8/11 days - yesterday I went on a conference where lunch was provided and today I unexpectedly had to work so whipped up some pasta quickly to take with me. Means my target is now actually 12 days because of working the extra day if that makes sense.

Sorry to hear about car troubles, I can empathise with this, and well done everyone we are doing really well!

Day 10 - just checking in and still going strong! Today was a ham salad but wish it was a soup day instead brrr ( maybe this is because I'm now back home and the boiler is broken so no heating...)

WTBSE glad you feel better about things :T

KT will you get overtime for today? :j

opal we had a broken boiler for about 3 years thinking it would cost loads due to it being an old fire with back boiler, in the end it cost £150 to fix :rotfl:hope you can get it sorted soon, maybe the LTW's will help :money:

Day 10 - Today is my birthday.

I will be at Aldi to buy some chicken and at the Oriental store for some ingredients for cooking. The rest of the food to be serve is already at the cupboard!

I am on leave for 1 week from work. All lunches will be at home. So far, I am doing well for no lunches at the center or at any fastfood store.

I am already at 13/18 days! where is this month disappearing too......anyway ended up with a prawn marie rose sarnie today..a very odd one for me but MIL had a lot of leftover food after catering for 16 folk on sunday and she brought over food to be used up yesterday....

We all had prawn cocktails as starters before dinner yesterday a rare treat because OH detests fish to such an extent he sits pulling faces even if its just brought into the house! He got his own special pack of Pakora as a starter from his mum...:rotfl:he complained the place smelt of fish and sat on the sofa to eat....sigh He has pasta leftovers for his lunch....
