Well.. being the thrifty budgeter I am I normally shop at Winco/Costco. But I know that you can get some really good deals at Albertson's occasionally so I watch their store fliers. This week they were having one of their awesome deals; if you purchased $30 worth of select items you got $15 off your next trip (which I turn around and use immediately) and they were doubling manufactures coupons. So I went to coupons.com and found 5 coupons for some the items that Albertson's was advertising. When all was said and done I spent $36.57 and saved $74.64 !! I'm so proud of myself and even prouder of my well stocked shelves.
Also.. I FINALLY got the phone call letting me know my long awaited treadmil will be arriving at my front door tomorrow between 11 and 1. YAY!!! I have been saving my money and researching what I want for months and Christmas brought on some killer deals that I was able to take advantage of. I bought a Nordic Track T9 ci for only $899 (it's normally $1600). For added motivation, and possibly torture, I also got the Jillian Michael's iFit lose weight workout card package (I'm a really big fan of the Biggest Loser). This is my year. I am SO excited and can hardly wait to get my butt kicked. Brent and I have set a goal to each lose 30 pounds by our birthday (I'm hoping to even exceed that goal). As a reward to ourselves if we accomplish our goal we are going to go on a 3 day cruise to Alaska BY OURSELVES! I think that is something worth working towards. Seriosly, a LOT of thought has gone into this and I'm excited to get going.

Good luck to both of you, I know you can do it. Depending on the date...I could watch the boys while you go on your trip! Keep me posted. I also think you both should put some picts of the before and after so we can all watch the weight come off. :)
That is awesome! I love when I get good deals. What did you buy and how can I do the same? I want a treadmill so bad. You are so lucky. Good luck with your goals. I have know doubt. You will do so great. Stay positive. It's not easy loosing wait when you are nursing. At least it's not for me because all I want to do is eat. I feel like I am starving all the time. LOL! You will do great.
I hope that treadmill comes. It is so exciting. good luck with your goals. I have them too, I just don't accomplish them unfortunately. Maybe this year will be different.
