Breakfast: 2 fried eggs over medium and 2 slices of toast (my husband had the same)
Lunch: I had leftover gumbo while my husband had a frozen dinner
Snack: chocolate pudding
Supper: My husband and I each had 2 chicken legs, rice and broccoli. I jazzed up my broccoli with squash from the garden, 1 slice of toasted bread (crumbled) and a little bit of shredded cheese on top.
My husband and I went and spent the little bit of money that I had left over in the budget. We spent every penny of that budget too. He got 3 frozen dinners (all of which were under 90 cents each) and we also got one package of Reese's cups!! I haven't had any sweets or junk food for the duration of the challenge. When I realized that the chocolate was only 50 cents, I nearly cried. It's sad but true. I can only imagine how it will taste tomorrow when I indulge!
My husband did not participate in the challenge until last night (he was out of town and unable to control what he ate). At first, he was excited about joining me in the challenge, but I caught him *almost* cheat with a pumpkin spice Hershey kiss. After asking him what he was doing, he said he was thinking about cheating. He ended up not cheating, but admitted that this challenge was very difficult. We both have a very active sweet tooth, and this challenge is testing our resolve!
