WE DID IT!!!! We have made it an entire week without spending any money! And, we are still completely on track to meet our $1,400.00 goal.

I feel like resisting the temptation to spend has been relatively easy this past week, but we also have been crazy busy, and not at home. We can feel it creeping up on us too. Seriously, I curse in my mind just about every time I think about Chik-fil-a. And don't even mention tax-free weekend to me, because I might start crying. I am proud of us though. It has been hard, having to put in the effort to cook a meal every night, preferably enough to make leftover for lunch the next day, and then carry on with whatever plans we have for the night. I've thought many times this week about how much easier it would be to just hit up a drive-thru and move on. Even if it lessens our lives by a year or two... On the upside though I am getting a lot faster at prepping food, and once it's all said and done I am glad that we didn't give in, and the chore wasn't even that hard to begin with. Scott is even starting to see some weight changes simply from me cooking every night! We know that we're just getting started, and we are NOT ready to give in yet! BRING IT WEEK TWO!!!
