#51 9/16 . Well that's me completed the challenge for the month. Finished my current job 2 weeks earlier than intended but thankfully starting my new job a week earlier so I'll be all set for the February challenge and will have a better idea of my goal as I should have a monthly rota. :jFebruary - TLW #16 2/16

Well done to everyone reaching their targets, and also well done to those who haven't. As long as you have saved money, that's what counts!0 -

Hello everyone,
I am reporting 20\21. Yesterday I had soup, hummus crackers and fruit. I did shamelessly scrounge a single chocolate digestive off a colleague though which was very much needed
Today's lunch was different as I was on the worlds worst training course where there were no facilities to heat soup and rank coffee. So I took a cheese, tomato and courgette relish sandwich which was lovely, a banana and a clementine.
We are going out for dinner tomorrow and I am really looking forward to it.
Thanks for the recipe LESLAMP. I will give that a go next week as I could do with trying something different next week.0 -

I've taken in lunches everyday so far this week so up to 17/22. Even though I won't make my target, the challenge has definitely made me think twice before spending money at work on lunches or treats
Role on next month!

Declaring at 10/12. Not as good as I'd hoped but been poorly and it was such an effort to actually get to work that I couldn't face sorting lunch too!Determined to save and not squander!
