    Hi all,
    My meal plans are more breakfast & lunches as my girlfriends mum makes the dinner during the week (spoiled I know) so:

    Monday & Tuesday: breakfast; tinned peaches, yogurt and some oats
    Lunch: pasta & pesto lunch box, banana, Apple & baby bel

    Wednesday & Thursday: breakfast:porridge w/ dried fruit
    Weds Lunch: tomatoes soup & bread, nana & apple
    Thurs lunch: marmite sarnies, satsumas & wotsits

    Friday: breakfast- alpen style muesli as its Friday & lunch: cheese & picle sarnie, biscuits (from hotel!) and fruit

    This should stop the temptation of the canteen/vending machines/sainsburys & M&S! Also will take coffee sachets from previous hotel stays for drinks and one latte sachet to avoid the frothy coffee in canteen! :-)
    First home- Oct’16 until June’21: £170.995- Overpayments made £13,784 (25% extra!).
    New forever home- Sep’21 £309,449 @ 2.05%. Plan to clear it before 30 years!!!!!!
