The "I'm Ready for My Closeup Mr. DeMille" Edition.....
Boy am I a mess! Had Hubs take this picture on Thursday after we got back from the doctor's office for a wound check. I feel so fashionable because my shirts now hang off one shoulder like all the cool kids. lolz And everything I own(except the 4 new bras)don't fit. At least no clothes are falling off(yet). Back to PT this morning and then off to a new PCP in the afternoon. Fun times....
This is day 134 of the "diet". Yay! If you can call what went on lately as a "diet". Down 41 lbs. since the cruise(not counting the 8 I gained on the cruise and then lost again).

Last week we spent $1.97 on grocery shopping for October. We used some of that travel stipend that is left and there was a full price rebate on the bag of frozen meatballs. There were 3 take-out meals(which made 6 meals for me).
Grand Total shopping comes to $210.11 for October.
There are 8 shopping days left in October.
I've earned $138.62 on Ibotta in October.
I've earned $30.00 on Shopmium in October.
I've earned $5.75 on Alexa app in October.
I've earned $2.10 on Kroger Cash Back in October.
I've earned 10,284 points from food shopping on Fetch in October.
I've earned 3,744 points from food shopping on Shop Kick in October.
I've earned 2,294 SB from food shopping on Swag Bucks in October.
That is $176.47 in rebates(not counting the Shop Kick/Swag Bucks/Fetch)on $210.11 of grocery spending so in reality it's $33.64 in food spending after the 4 rebate apps I count.
My savings percentage for the last week was 94.44% and the monthly savings total for October comes in at 41.44% spent.
Leftovers going into this week...leftover Chinese takeout and rice.
Here is this week's "food plan".....

2. Monday--No Clue
3. Tuesday--No Clue
4 Wednesday--No Clue
5. Thursday--No Clue
6. Friday--No Clue
7. Saturday--No Clue
I am NOT menu planning, period. I have earned the right not to in my mind at this point. I am giving up control of meals to Hubs. I will put in requests now and then.
What is getting fixed and served at your house this week?
Was last week's plan successful, did you go off plan or did you not even plan what was going to be eaten last week?
Any deals on food at your stores this week?
I may post sporadically after this one or I might not, depending on drugs and stuff.
