Save £££'s and Lose lbs!

I wanted to blog two things before I go to weigh in tonight.

Firstly I have made an amazing discovery (no, not marmite cheese and marmite cashews which although were introduced to me this week are not what I m referring to) ... the discovery was mysupermarket.co.uk . Anyone who has a severe hatred of supermarkets like myself will have discovered the joys of shopping online and browsing all the special offers and having your favourite items all waiting there to be added to your basket. Now, with this genius little website you give them your user information for your supermarket sites and it will import your favourite items. You then pick a supermarket, choose a delivery slot and do your shopping. and at the top of the page you will see the price of your trolley in each of the four supermarkets (tesco, sainsburys, asda and ocado). My shopping was £20 cheaper at asda this week than tesco or sainsburys and £22 cheaper than ocado! Not only that, it also suggests lower priced alternatives when you add items to your basket AND (now for the really good bit) suggests lower calorie alternative too. Saving you calories as well as cash. Chuffing excellent. Check it out ... here's the proof!




Secondly ... I haven't got my dieting mojo back at all however on saturday I had all my lovely healthy food options delivered from Asda at a fraction of the cost so this week I am truly ready to be on my best behaviour. The holiday is definitely over and xmas is fast approaching so if I want to get to goal before the year is out I need to get on with it and stop bloody sabotaging myself!!!

There will be a gain at weigh in tonight. I know it, but I already have my food planned until wednesday so I feel in control and in the zone so I'll be able to handle a bad result today. I know I deserve it.
