I've been really trying to save money lately; and one way I'm doing this is by eating only at home or at work. Unless someone else is paying. :)If I make it to Wednesday it'll be three weeks. Well, while we were waiting to eat Easter dinner today, my grandmother was going on about some fast food chain, and I mentioned my fast food fast.
And she immediately starts into the diet talk, going on and on about my third cousin (who is a nasty, hideous bitch--and I mean that about her personality) and how she's been going to Curves and she's lost six pounds!!11!!
I waited until my aunt was paying attention to this rambling, and I left the room. Unfortunately, she started on it again when I came back. Finally I interrupted her and said, "It's not a diet thing, it's a money thing." She looked a little nonplussed but shut up about it. And didn't give me any lecture about how such-and-such on the table was made with fat free whatever. Maybe she's learning.
Poor hiring decisions.

Thanks for putting me in your blog roll btw!
The horrid stench of jumping to conclusions there. I too have not been eating out recently, also due to financial constraints. It does help the weight loss / control that's for sure. Same goes of drinkin' beer... I love a cold beer, but because of money worries I've had to cut right back and my figure has benefited. So its a happy coincidence is it not that sensible financial behavior can equal sensible weight management?
I broke my streak after three weeks for food at my favorite Chinese restaurant. Sooooo worth it. :)
