Thank you all! I'm feeling rather proud of my weight loss and fully focused again, so you never know I might even get back to target for the first time in about 13 years!! I went to see my friend next door last night and avoided the snacks she put out. DH and I went to the cinema today too (which was ace) and took fruit pots so as to swerve the nachos that normally shout loudly to us. Rock solid me :cool:.
I won the raffle at chub club last night which was £10 worth of speed foods (fruit and veg) so that helped reduce the shopping today :T.Debts @ LBM £23,729.31. Debts @ 08/04/2016 £0 :j

I geddit. The raffle win was even better because someone else bought my ticket! I give her a lift home every week (it's on the way so no hardship), and she insists on buying my ticket to say thank you.

Hi all
.
NSD here today (what else can you do when you only have £3 in the bank?? :eek:), which makes the 4th and final one of the month. Not bad for Easter, 2 week half term and a trip away I suppose.
DH and I went to the gym this morning, and then I made a veggie frittata for lunch using lots of the things I won in the raffle :T and put a beef casserole in the slow cooker. Then we spent an hour clearing more of the loft and did a tip and charity shop run. After we collected the boys from school I helped them both with their homework and did some ironing. I'm feeling virtuous!!Debts @ LBM £23,729.31. Debts @ 08/04/2016 £0 :j
