    sekhmet1970 is really trying to let it all go now....

    Need to be more specific 6 days ago

    I don’t always bring my lunch to work and I do quite like meeting friends or colleagues for lunch so a more realistic way to achieve this goal would be to say that twice a week (minimum) I will bring my lunch to work and we’ll take it from there…!



    UskaDara needs to get back on track with this whole SLEEPING thing.

    Been doing this... 2 months ago

    For about 2 weeks now. I’ve gone to Subway a couple times as a treat, but besides that I’ve been brown-baggin it =)

    From now until the year is over... 2 months ago

    I plan to do this. And then some. It’ll be cheaper and WAY healthier and all that jazz. Today I didn’t do it, but tonight I’m going grocery shopping and I will have a nice packed lunch tomorrow.

    NO MORE FAST FOOD. NO MORE VENDING MACHINE LUNCHES.



    roseyfg is at a lake for the week.

    Been doing it for about now. 2 months ago

    First, apples with a vegan caramel dip and vegan potpies. Then kidney bean pie and apples. Now shepherd’s pie and caramel apples.

    I ought to be bored with the pies and apples, but they’re SO GOOD!

    if, you know, work is school. 3 months ago

    Which it is.

    I did this for half of last year, and then I got distracted by my boyfriend, so instead of eating at lunch, I’d talk to him. [And that orange-carrot fiasco didn’t help either.] But… I felt so much better [health-wise] when I did pack my lunch, so I’m going to get on it again.

    I’m vegan, so it’s doubly important, since I can’t eat the school lunch.

    hot chocolate 6 months ago

    Found the only thing I was spending money on at work was hot chocolate – so now I’ve bought a pack of cocoa powder and a pack of brown sugar about the same size and mixed them together – (just like commercial hot chocolate mixes only better and at a fraction of the cost). I just have to buy milk every week and I end up saving about $10 a week.

    restocked 9 months ago

    restocked with sandwich stuff. A little over budget last week – hopefully save a little this week…

    sandwich stuff 10 months ago

    bread in freezer, assortment of sandwich stuff in fridge, saving at least $50/wk, no standing in queues, no greasy chips. much better.



    lunch 10 months ago

    I started this today and I have tomorrow planned. Maybe I should make it now so I don’t forget tomorrow!



    Yukino is cold.

    Untitled 11 months ago

    Even though I technically can have an all-you-can-eat feast every day at work (as it’s a family business, and I have full access to everything), I want to try to bring my own lunch, because I believe separating this from all other expenses will help me budget and really see how much money I spend on food daily. This is something I’ve been meaning to do for a long time.
