    I've lurked on various challenges on the forums, but not joined many. Can I join in this one please ?


    I've got a whole wardrobe of clothes that will fit as soon as I lose 20lb (ish). Back to WeightWatcher's next Wednesday for me as I've got an incentive to start losing the weight I've accumulated over the past couple of years.


    Put me down for £240 for the whole year please. Doesn't include underwear.


    I'm hoping I come under this amount, but as its my first year, I'm trying to set a sensible figure.


    I've also got more than enough make-up, potions and lotions to last me the whole year by my reckoning and more than enough shower gel and the like for at least 6 months. So I'm not going to buy any of those either, till I've used up my stocks.

    Setting my budget at £100. I will need a new pair of jeans soon as my current pair are completely ruined at the bottom & I look like a tramp!

    Apart from that I plan to only spend non-money (gift vouchers etc), but still only £100. :A

    Can I join please. I would like to have a neutral spend please. I have loads of clothes that don't fit or that I just haven't got around to wearing so I will only buy new clothes using money I have raised from the sale of old clothes. I do not have much faith in myself but hey ho!! Good luck everyone x

    Could I join too please. Since I was pregnant a lot of my clothes went into the canvas wardrobe in the loft. I emptied it yesterday as my boy is having my room and I'm moving up there- I was astounded by how much stuff I'd got and really shouldn't need anything for several months and then maybe underwear, trousers and skirts in a smaller size if I manage to stick to slimming world. I have a baby who is 5 months and a dd of nearly 9 years. I want to pledge £250 plus anything I make by selling clothes we've grown out of please. I'm afraid I find it very hard to walk past a bargain so this is going to be a hard one for me!

    ETA- I need to look at my sig!!
    July grocery- 24.40/220. NSD-1/3.
