First week back at my Weight Watchers meetings... didn't go so well. Last Friday I went to weigh in and got the reality check I thought I needed. After hearing the devastating news, I was all ready to get back into the grove. However, what turned out to be a great week socially, turned out to be a rough week on the scale. Ate out with friends Saturday, Monday and will be again tonight. Add to that Sunday football games at my parents house and I realized I need another goal. Nothing really beats the motivation of a wedding dress. I will still keep at it, go to my weigh in tomorrow morning, and try again next week.
I find out on Monday when I start my new job, which I hope is the key to getting back in the grove. I will be working in the city, which I'm so excited about! Having a daily schedule again is exactly what I need. I will be packing my lunch, reading on the train, and walking to the office. Now, I just need to find some good deals on clothing, since I have to dress office professional (also very excited about).
The hubby asked me if this new job means the end of my couponing. I told him "heck no!" Knowing that I can spend so much less than sticker price is exciting. Saving money means we can use if on more fun things, like going to Disney World together! I still can't believe that he has never been, but also makes me realize how lucky I am that I have been so many times before.
Today, my couponing hints are: Be on the lookout for the P&G saver this Sunday. This is a big one, full of coupons for products which don't have coupons available often.
I went to Walmart the other day, bought three items, before coupons my total was $12.43. After my coupons, my total was $1.63! Other than that, I took it easy on the couponing this week. Today I am going to try and get myself organized and ready for the week ahead. Hopefully I can let you know about some great deals!
