What are the rules?

I have already been overwhelmed by the support I have received since posting yesterday, so thank you everyone.

I have also had alot of people asking “what are the rules?” “are you allowed to buy a sandwich?” “what about a coffee?”

Well, what I am going with is any food where I am at home and would order in. So ordering a chinese or getting a pizza delivered. This includes if I am at home and pop out to get ready made food, if I have access to a kitchen. If I am working away, or travelling, and have to buy a ready made lunch, I don’t really have much choice. Equally if I am on a long journey and need to buy a coffee, I think this is ok too. What I want to try and cut out is the convenience food that we end up buying when we could easily cook something at home.

I want to try and be more mindful, and plan our meals better. Whenever we have made a concerted effort to do this, we have all felt better, and saved a few pounds too! So this is the plan!
