I just changed my future.

I casually stated to my husband today while clipping a few coupons, that I have a fear of becoming one of those ladies carrying around an 8lb binder with coupons, on that massively overly popular show. This simply cannot happen for several reasons.

• This would simply take up too much room. Room I/we do not have.
• I see it as wasteful. I would have to buy more food in 1 week than I could eat in a year.
• I am not the type of person that can eat the same thing every day. I cry everyday eating a simple ham/turkey sandwich just to save money or cut down on portions. 

That last statement isn't a lie. It's not really about the money. I simply do this to try and maintain my moral up with this "diet" my husband and I have been on for the last 6 months. The weight is slowly coming off... FOR ME! However my now svelte looking husband is over come with compliments about his new figure when we come into contact with people we haven't seen in a while. Grrr, men!! That might be my next post. For now i'm still over weight, only clip coupons that can fit into a small purse and that are for a weeks worth of groceries. Obsessive future me saved! Whew. No Doc Brown needed.
