Day 21-28: Living on a Pound a Day - A week in review

So evidently, I have been dreadful in keeping this challenge updated in a timely fashion in the past week. But lo and behold, I've got 3 days left in this month. Mentally, i'm at the end of my tether in trying not to think about food. I didn't want food to be the main key point to this challenge, but somehow I have morphed into an all devouring beast that will happily chomp at anything (with conditions).

I'm rather pressed for time with the external pressures of wrapping up a work contract by the end of the week. Going forward, i'm going to attempt post smaller updates to keep you clued in to the last 72 hours of being thrifty.
