Being off sick, its made me look at the way we used to spend money and we used to waste a lot of food. There is something so satisfying about shopping for bargins and I will keep it up

pass on hints n tips. i don't know how i manage but we get there
 
"Found" a bottle of cider vinegar at the back of the cupboard!!
Well, it was in our previous kitchen before we moved, I
forgot all about it!!

Had some last night in hot water with honey, forgotten how good it
is for helping me to sleep! :)
Had some this morning to flush out the system. Seems to help with the energy levels
as well. Mind you, I`ve heard you can use it as a mouthwash and if used neat
can be a toilet cleaner!!
Done the mouthwash but draw the line at toilet cleaner!!


Off to the local market soon to stock up on meat etc
Much cheaper than the supermarket and generally better
quality!! :)
Will post later to let you all know what I got and how much I spent!!

Hubbg back to fullish health today albeit a bit tender.....so have a nice long weekend off together and then he's off on Easter leave from next wednesday......wander what jobs I can find for him to do hehe! Am going to do an inventory of the freezer and see if we can just eat the freezer all of April and just get away with buying fresh fruit and veg. Im getting very good at bargin hunting and love the satisfaction of it! Keep hydrated Deb cos it's the lactic acid making you sore, but you're doing great x Sent from my GT-N8010 using MiniMins.com mobile app

Well done you. Maintaining suits you :)
 
Morning ladies day 5 of 50 was did yesterday. I walked it this time but back to running tonight for day 6

As much as i hate the thought of trying to get sitters etc i am enjoying this challenge. Exercise makes a rubbish day so much better

Scales finally showing 8st 6.25lb today. Must be doing something right although i did eat crisp n chocolate because i was annoyed but hey ho. Happy lady x
 
Morning ladies :)

Well the doctor has finally referred me to a neurologist and I'm having bloods taken so hopefully get some answers. Doctor thinks it's nothing serious but could be a patch of nerves in my head that have been aggravated by something.

Had a bit of an ok week weight wise but pretty sure it's a STS but we will see tomorrow!

Looks as tho you got a great bargain there Annette with all your meat, you can make lots of lovely SW meals with that lot.

At last Nikki! Im glad they've referred you to a Neurologist, lets hope you get some answers now. A maintain is nothing to be sniffed at especially as you're at a fairly low BMI now.

Thats great Deb, cos didnt you see 8.9 on the scales early on in the week?

Talking of bargains......Asda are selling whole legs of lamb for £8.....bought 2 and will probably make a slow cooker Rogan Josh

You`re doing brilliantly!!

I can only dream of being less than 8.5st!!
But then I`m not really a running sort of girl :)

Yep jumping on the scale midweek either gets your hopes up or puts you in a bad mood lol!

Whoops thought I posted my weight for yesterday.......9st 2.5lbs, so half a pound off which I'm really happy with cos I thought I would gain after those 2 good losses and I dont seem to lose if I dont eat enough!

Have kickstarted my metabolism by going out for a 4 mile jog/powerwalk......feel as tho I've blown away a few cobwebs! Must keep it up and stop being a sloth lol!
