I am very honored to have been asked to participate in this awesome new site – Frugal Fashion Focus.  You’ll notice the badge & search box on the right column of my site.

It officially launched yesterday & I am glad to be on board!  It is a great place to keep up with the frugal fashion corner of the blogosphere.  I’ve been cruising through the site myself & not only are there great well known blog sisters (like Cheap Chica’s Guide to Style & Fab Finds Under $50) but there are some that I hadn’t been aware of  – Work With What You’ve Got, Steal the Style & Fashion Without Guilt.

I think the bottom line here is – add Frugal Fashion Focus to your must reads – either by adding to your favorites or subscribing to their feed.  It will keep you up to date on all things frugal fashion!

Health: Looking up!  Avoided eating processed frozen lunches all week, instead went for turkey on bagel with lots of extra veggies – including avocado – a new favorite!  Biked a few times this week so far.  Lost 2.8 lbs, per weigh in Thursday morning.  Feeling great!

Spending: Doing well here also.  Did not spend any money Mon-Wed.  Bought breakfast Thurs plus stopped at the store on the way home & bought a box of 100 calorie snacks & a diet Orange Crush.  Total: under &8.  Tonight I have to stop & pick up a new battery charger for my older but better camera (the one that I have a remote for).  I’ve been missing it!

Updates on my self-improvement lately:

Health – thumbs down.  Having a hard time eating right.  Plan to start eating real foods more often, processed foods much less.

Spending – spent no money on Monday, Tuesday.  Wednesday went to Walgreens to get the two freebies I heard about.  Spent about $15, no freebies.

Improving my knowledge of 80′s rock – fail!
