  • Glass_half_full love your signature, one of my favourite songs!

  • Evening everyone :) I think I have updated everyone's numbers...I was lapse on the last few days of my holiday and didn't go on the forum! Back now though and start back at work on Tuesday so will start taking my lunch to work again! If I have missed anyone off/not updated everyone's numbers then please let me know :)

    Welcome to everyone just joining! This challenge does stop you putting your hand in your pocket when the things we can make ourselves for lunch are nicer and healthier (well, mine are sometimes!)

  • Morning,

    I'm on 8/15 today.

    Half way through my target.
  • #6 7/16 new week, new lunches! It was over night oats and tuna pasta bake yesterday. There was also a free buffet so snuck a couple of sandwiches too! Yesterday was definitely a challenge emotionally and craved a comforting latte, but luckily I had no money! Today it's mixed berries and yogurt and tuna pasta again.

  • #6 10/16 today was not an organised day and threw bits in my lunch bag and one of my desk mug shots. Had to take my purse to buy petrol but resisted the urge to go to the canteen.

  • Evening all. 9/14 I'm not being very imaginative with lunch at the moment, need to try some new ideas.
