    Default Grocery day!

    I'm so excited. For the first time in a VERRRRY long time I've spend less than 100$ on my weekly grocery bill (family of 4 + 2dogs and 1 cat). I can't even remember the last time it happend.

    Today...I spend exactly 99.67$ on my weekly grocery, and on this I have 3big bottle of Purex laudry soap for pantry. Much better than my usual 225$ per week

    I'm getting there!

    Nath

    Great work! You should be very proud of yourself, cutting your weekly food bill by half is a huge accomplishment.

    A powerful body supporting a powerful mind! you WILL do it, anyone who has the self control you have ( with food/exercise etc) is going to go from good to great!

    I believe food(eating)and money(spending) habits are very closley linked and if you can conquer one area, then the other can be manipulated in much the same way

    So true!

    Both of thems need the same focus, same self-control, patience, consistency and sacrifices!

    Dah! if this is like precontest dieting....this will be a piece of cake LMAO
