    I'm in. If my baby could come tonight or tomorrow would be great so I can celebrate the birth my 9 months of no alcohol. If not. Oh well.
  • Right I'm ready. Sig updated, DFD worked out and I don't drink much anyway so that should be no problem. As for the exercise I'm only a size 8 now and my part time work is very physical plus I go on a wobble machine once a day. Can I count that please? Anything else and is start wastin away lol.

    Morning everyone, I am back in. Have taken a bit of time off to have a holiday and get the kids some clothes and things for school.

    But now I am back, September needs to be very frugal to get me back on track!

    Hi all

    Good luck - I will cheer from the sidelines as I will be on my holidays in Sept. I will be ready for the Oct challenge:)
  • hi need to join in and get a grip of where my money is going each month. have printed off three months bank statements to go through have all ready found 3 unnecessary dd which I've cancelled. but need drastic action to cut down on the day to day spending. will go through my fridge and freezers today and meal plan and set a budget for food im tempted to set it really low to futher challenge myself. will definitely drop off items to the food bank. i already do lots of exercise each day (walk miles with the dog) but have recently started running so will do more of this. the note book in the handbag sound a simple but great idea to track spends.
    off to get started will report back later and to re read the rules good luck everyone.
    You can if you think you can .

    Ooh another runner! :D

    My only problem with the notebook in the handbag is I always feel it is logical to stop in a coffee shop to update it... :o
