First of all, my April expenses --

Medical/Health - 401
Gifts - 322
Utilities - 101
Eating Out - 98
Business - 98
Entertainment - 87
Groceries - 83
Gas - 76
Clothing - 42
Vet/Pet Supplies - 30
Furnishings/Equipment - 20
Household Supplies - 17
Personal - 14

Total - 2524

I went out to eat with colleagues last night - had a margherita pizza and salad for $17. Plenty left over for lunch today.

I have to decides on my "fitness fives" for May, so I'll just do it, as Nike says --

Walk to work and back five times
Walk the Prairie Path five times
Dance for 1/2 hour five times
Take the stairs at work five times a day
Do my strength training exercise routine five times

Let the games begin!

I don't count anything but food in the groceries -- paper goods, etc. get counted in household supplies, and cat food it the pet supplies category. And I'm only feeding myself. Still, I've been consciously holding my weekly food budget to $20 a week and I'm getting results!
