I’m planning on getting my shit together in a serious way over the next 12 months, would anyone like to join me?

Whether it’s quitting alcohol, getting into a better housework routine, making more of an effort with make up & clothes, paying off debt, or anything else.

My plan is
-eat 3 meals a day instead of skipping meals
-get a proper housework routine
-pay off my credit card

Whatever you need to do in order to get your shit together, let us know and we can support and encourage each other.

Hello! I’m keen, @Bookaholic73. For me it’s all about carving out some personal time in my week to exercise. Which I guess also falls under “making more of an effort”. And probably lots more that I need to write down.

@WhiteSandyBeach Thanks for joining me, it’s nice to know I’m not alone.
What kind of exercise do you want to do?
I go to the gym and also do a bit of running (not often though) and I find it quite enjoyable.
Although fitting in time can be a pain.

I have a subscription and am paying for an online subscription to an exercise site (Les Mills). I love it, when I do it. But I do not do it 😛

Ooo I’m in!

I’ve never really had my shit together but I managed, but things have been rather shitthis past year.

paperwork and procrastination is my biggest problem, I just have a complete mental block on doing it, I think I’m so tired from a physical factory job that I just can’t think straight when I get in.

I also need to fit more physical exercise in too. Gentle walking is a start for me

@blackheartsgirl Great to have you on board too.
Do you have any idea of how to tackle your paperwork? Do you need some sort of system for it?
Yes to the gentle walking. I love walking, but don’t do it as often as I used to.

Morning. I’m just about head off to work, and haven’t eaten yet. So I’ll grab a quick snack on the way. A croissant or something I think.

I have packed my lunch, so will be sticking to my 3 meals a day today.

I’m going to ask if I can pick up an extra shift each week, and that’ll go directly towards the balance of my credit card. Hopefully it’ll be paid off in 10 months.
