  • Hi all, haven!!!8217;t posted since the start of the year but just checking in to say that I managed all of January without buying lunch at work of coffee - coffee being my big downfall!!! I still spend £44.50 on !!!8216;eating out!!!8217; so takeaways, meals out, coffees and cakes, lunches with friends etc. This month I!!!8217;m already at £41! So I need to reign that in. Anyone working on reducing takeaways and eating out? Any tips?

  • Hello everyone, checking in. I!!!8217;m virtuously up to date so far, mainly thanks to sandwiches, hastily prepared pastas, chopped carrots and fruit.

    Another tin of Mackerel on toast for today's lunch, and that's the cupboard supplies finished. Making the Thai chicken noodle broth again tonight as we really enjoyed it so that'll be tomorrows lunch too.

  • Morning,

    Found a tin of chicken and sweetcorn soup in the cupboard, so having that for lunch with a roll I bought yesterday.

    The tin does say best before 9/17 but I figured it'll be ok as its in a tin :)

    Number 6: 4/11.
    Today, I have the last of the yellow stickered chicken breasts bought and cooked on Sunday on some seed and honey bread. I would love to say I made the bread with my own fair hands... :rotfl:

    Its usually time when I find some questionable looking veg at the bottom of the fridge. Roasted some BN Squash & peppers & chucked them in too.
