I have a rough budget as a guide, and from time to time I track more closely to tighten up my spending habits. However, I'm no good at detailed tracking all the time. Instead I track a few key things:lpearlmom wrote:Thank you SO much ginger! You really inspired me to get off my duff and deal with this head on. I remembered that I made a budget way back when and with a few tweaks I can make it work for our current needs.
It just takes a little bit of awareness & effort to stay on track but so worth it.

I'm a high school teacher and I always tell the parents: I am positive they're better to adults at school compared to how they are to you. Haha! I hear they can be pretty rough to parents. I guess I was to mine now that I think of it.eschano wrote:I'm so glad you found a good budget app! As for teenagers: I think every mother would like to skip that age if it were possible ha!
So impressed that you are taking this all in your stride and keeping your thinking positive and your efforts consistent. I think you might be surprised by where your body will take you, especially when school routine starts again and you have an easier time getting exercise consistently into your weeks.lpearlmom wrote:My weight was up .4 lb this week but I'm not surprised considering its that time of the month & my week was less than perfect. Still I have a feeling these last 18 lbs are going to put up a fight.
