I know I have fell off the wagon for the last few month. I am about to start with new resolve.
In September I will track our expenses to the cent.
My goals are to keep as close to our projected "if we buy a coop" budget as possible.
That includes spending under $500 on food without compromising quality. I will have to be very mindful and creative. I am not sure we can achieve this... but I'll try my best.
Encouraging news is that 3 months of lifestyle change have yielded excellent results for DH. His bad cholesterol is down 71 points just due to eating right and exercising!
September - new month, new start

That's awesome about DH's cholesterol coming down like that! My goal for September is no prepackaged convenience foods and more baking from scratch and boosting that amount of fresh fruit/veggies that my offspring consume. Trying to keep it cost effective as well! Good luck with your new budget.
