December 2011
- No more eating at work. I'm sure I can find a much better way to spend my money than at my own resturaunt. Instead I will start bringing granola bars for when I get hungry.

Its not a total Fail - tonight I refrained from eating there, instead I ate dinner before hand. I have however slipped up a couple time. Lets hope I finish out strong!
-Walk atleast once a week
This way I can start getting myself in a routine and I will be able to successfully walk 2.75 miles a week like I have planned for next year.
Two weeks in AND TWO walks taken. PASSING SO FAR!
12-10-11 : My love, the family, and I took a walk around a beautiful family farm up un GA.
12-15-11 : The dog, Love, and I went on a stroll by the river.
- Put $100 towards my move in march
Most of that funding is coming from my Tax return, but I do need a little bit of a head start.
12-9-11 : $10.00

I am less than half way there :/ I am really hoping tomorrows shift bears more results so I can tuck more away.
-Start a "Piggy Bank" that we will not open for one year. I want to add a little to it each day, it needs to be sealed off and solid in color so we won't know how much is in there, and we wont be tempted to open it!
"the sealed pot challenge"
Boo-ya! I started this on 12-5-11!

I have also been continuously adding to this and it is already getting heavy!!!
-Bake 112 cookies to give away to friends and family for Christmas
We don't have much money to spare, I think this is a great way to show them that we care though.

We will probably start this monday. I really want to find some awesome way to wrap them up.
ANY IDEAS?!
And so there we have it! My Weekly goal check in.

I am really impressed with the fact that we only ate out once, and It was such a small amount. I even went back through each day thinking about what we ate and where we went, just to make sure I didn't forget to write something down. We wouldn't have even gone that one time, but I had just donated plasma, and I felt a little woozy, so I had to eat right away ( I am ashamed to admit I was on my way to a family dinner when we made this stop)
