Another home-made ham salad wrap with cereal bars, crisps and 2 apricots for dinner (and/or munchies) today. I did have left over pasta bake from Thursday night's tea which was earmarked for today, but my lovely OH ate it on Friday! I can't complain too much because he obviously likes my cooking.01.05.2019 - Re-Mortgage - £142,000 :eek::eek::eek: Total overpaid to date: £15,584.33.

Count me in this month too. I'm on leave this week so it doesn't count, but will start again on my return.
Last week I was quite good, took in cereal for breakfast and a sandwich everyday except one. My spend for the week was £7.17 which I am very happy with, as this was mainly for fresh milk and multipacks of things whereas I normally buy meal deals from the Co-op!0 -
#6 5/16 today it was meatballs and rice. The meatballs and sauce has been prepped in the freezer for ages so defrosted and did some rice. Had fruit and yogurt for breakfast, cereal bar and apple for snack and my trusty coffee flask!!!
So far I have saved £12 in coffee.Taking on the world one debt at a time!!!

Hi all, sorry for the lack of check in's.
Monday was a ham salad wrap, yesterday I did forget my dinner but I had plenty of snacks in my drawer (cereal bars, fruit, crisps and nuts) so I didn't go hungry - probably not the healthiest day but I didn't spend anything and it could have been worse.
Last night I made some vegetable soup and I've got that with some nice bread from A/di. I love wintery food.Little One born 19/12/18

Nelliepie emergency snacks are an absolute must! Other people have been know to raid my draw (it's ok, they are lovely!).
#6 6/16 only at work until 2 today so have fruit and yogurt breakfast, and cereal bars and boiled egg for a snack. I have SW weigh in tonight and think all this healthy lunch planning has made my drop out the bottom of my target range, oops!Taking on the world one debt at a time!!!
