    Last Sunday I joined a marathon and I was able to finish my first 5K run. Basically, my plan really is to improve my wallet as well as my whole persona. I may be slow but I know I am getting there.

    I usually don't come down and jot down what's going on with me but rest assured that I am doing some things to resolve my debt issue.

    UPDATES:
    1. Meal Planning - Yes I made a monthly meal plan that will guide me thru my grocery shopping.

    2. Plan to move-in with Fiance's house - this will definitely help with my finances since I will no longer pay rent for the house. The date to move in is already decided - end of July!

    3. Dine-out - it seems that the meal plan is abolishing this dining out thing.

    4. Shopping - I don't even know when was the last time I visited the shopping mall/boutique.

    5. Lunch to work - still connected with the meal plan as I am now bringing leftovers for lunch. Even healthier choices.

    6. Diet - yes, I am fasting and it is saving me money on FAST days, haha.

    7. Exercise - I may have spent a couple of hundreds for my running gears but I am investing it for my own health.

    I just can't help but pat myself on the back. Just so proud of what I am doing now.
