My weekly plan is:
To write a meal plan using what we have in freezer (and sticking to it)
Drink more water than fizzy juice
To not spend more than £20 on food this week
Clean bathroom
Tidy kitchen and living room before going to bed each night. (This one will be difficult as bf always in bed after me and when I get up there's a trail of destruction left behind!! :mad:)
Do Pilates video twice this week
Do two 15min cleaning challenges this week (got 4 night's this week so 2 should be enough to be getting on with)

So far this week, managed to do meal plan and although I changed some of around, stuck to the what's on the plan.
Definitely been drinking more water than fizzy juice, substituting plain fizzy water when the need for fizzy juice comes along.
Bathroom done. Will do again in morning cos I'm finished night's then and I do love waking up clean house once my shifts are done :j

Not done Pilates or cleaning challenges but still got plenty of time to achieve them I reckon

I have to say this reading other people's list is quite good. Has reminded me I need to clean the oven! Next week's list :rotfl:

Hi,

3 of the 4 jobs are done; free hair cut, homemade "thankyou" card sent and the new compost bin is set up. The remaining, sorting through bulky items for disposal to make up cost is in progress as more difficult i.e. dismantling two bicycles for parts, that can be safely used, to save money in the future.
Am feeling optimistic about making more "get it done" plans.

Hello :-)

Id love to join you guys...my signature says it all. Im trying to save, declutter and stop spending.

This evening i would like to list 7 items on ebay
My friend has had a baby girl.. i really want to get her something or send a card and im scared to go to the shops as my spending has always been out of control and i really dont want to spend. I think somewhere in my cluttered house i have card making items..maybe i could send a pretty handmade card?..along with some baby bands that i sew.. oo i think thats a plan

Update from me:

I have been ill so I've got nothing done (even basic stuff I have struggled with). I'm still not feeling great so not sure when I'll feel inclined to do anything!

Oh yea gawd. Im so demotivated to continue on with my list this week. Stupid working night shifts. Takes all the energy and get up n go out of me. Might need to tag it on to next weeks.

In saying that quite pleased stuck to meal plan for the week. Although him indoors is meant to be cooking tonight so im quite sure we will be going off plan completely cos it's meant to be turkey burgers made from scratch and I struggle to get him to eat turkey outside of thanksgiving :rotfl:

Having a roast chicken for sunday dinner so off to work out a meal plan using up left overs. And to work out a to do list for this week
