"Sealed Pot Challenge" ~ 7 ~ Part 2

EverTheOptimist

Evening everyone. :hello:

£1 coin potted into the terramundi and a bit of shrapnel into my car park pot (intermittently potted into my sealed pot from holding pot.)

Hope everyone's well.

Hi I don't have a pot number but have been potting since dec 2013 for this years challenge.
I have one pot for £ coins and notes and one for everything else.
I have decided that upon opening any £2 coins saved will got into another sealed pot for my 50th birthday and will do other sealed pots as normal.
Sold many things on fb over the bank holiday weekend so a whooping £28 potted today:j:j

Love reading your stories and will make sure I join in properly next time.

Never too late
As Kerry woman says, have a read of post 1 on page1 to find out what we're about, find a pot, and come on in!

I have a Comrade in arms!! :eek: :T

Ahh the 'your anorexic' reply, I got put in hospital for 3 days so they could prove to me I either wasn't eating, or was throwing everything up . . . 3 days later a body building dietitian came in, looked at me like I was from another planet and said 'where do you put it? you eat more than me!', I said 'I know! now you understand why I keep asking everyone what the he** is wrong with me!'

Am not happy, as got on the scales yesterday and had dropped back under 9st :mad: I'm only weighing once a month now as was getting quite demoralised by that stupid dial not saying what I wanted it to say

Just to top my week of moaning off, woke up this morning to find my SIL had nominated me for the ice bucket challenge, DH was not happy I decided to do it (cold water and someone who cant regulate their body temp is not a good mix . . . ) omg, it was cold! even getting in the shower immediately hasn't saved me from being freezing for the last 3 hrs, am slowly warming up though and hoping to avoid any subsequent illness from being so darn stupid and stubborn :rotfl: . . why break the habit of a lifetime eh? :rotfl:

I have had the nasal food tube That was when I was at my most ill though, back in 2002. I am currently weighing in around the 8st mark. I made it to 8st 2lb a few nights back, which was my minimum goal for this year, but I was back to 8 again last night. I keep getting to a level and sticking to it for a bit. I was stuck at 7st 10 for AGES! I daren't weigh myself first thing in the morning anymore as I can easily lose 4-5lbs overnight. 9st is my ultimate goal but it will be a slog to get there. I have friends who say the same haha.

I have managed to avoid nominations for the ice bucket challenge. I have been dreading getting one as there is no way on earth I would be able to do it as it would make me ill. I am cross with you for doing it, in an admiring kind of way

I emptied a piggy bank which had some £1 coins in it to use for bus fares (going out for dinner after work tonight ) and potted the £2 that was left!

EMMAP

Another 50p in the pot today.

What are you guys going to do with the money if you all reach your targets? I think I'm going to spend half and save half. Don't know what to spend it on though!
