Fiscal and Physical Diet Starting Now

Both going well-ish. Been bringing lunch more often than not, although having a tooth removed also helped with that. Spring weather helps with the physical diet as I walk more, but then spring brings a more active social calendar, which, of late, have been somewhat pricey days. Am sure that will balance out in the end. 

For now, all of my tax refund is in my savings account earning ~ 3% APY. Not perfect, but better than the market crap shoot while I decide what I want to do with it. 

Made an odd cc payment today that should take me below the next 1K milestone. While I know it's all processed automagically and no one notices/cares what the amounts are, I find myself wondering if they think there's anything odd about amounts paid month to month.

Atypical way of beginning fiscal diet...

Leaving gym and stopped at Hallmark (half-price Valentine card) and when I went to pay (and debated putting $2.81 on credit for points or just paying cash) I realised I didn't have my wallet. After a momentary freak-out I realised it was probably in my coat from last night. I got home, and it was indeed, but now the "need" to stop at Subway is aside for the moment. We'll see how long it lasts.

Calories burned: 350 with 33 min on rower and 15 on Precor. 
$ spent: 0

Fiscal and Physical Diets

Well to be honest, neither is going that well.

Had to buy lunch and dinner both days and went to a store because of an evil coupon *cough*Borders*cough* to buy things I didn't need but really really wanted. Books will always be my downfall. Oh well, there's always tomorrow.
