I could be doing much better at this. :-/ I went to the groccery store yesterday, so I should be good for this week. Goal for this week: spend absolutely no money.

Taking a day off from the gym today, I went five days this week. I’ve lost a couple pounds and I can say that my shoulders are starting to look pretty awesome. I allow myself to wear tank tops when I work out now. :-)
First step is to get a second job. I also plan on walking to campus as often as possible, buying in bulk and only buying necessary food items.
