Update to say the budget is still going along well. As of this month, I've paid off 10% of my debt!
Budgeting, using coupons and planning our grocery trips around the sales, giving up the mani/pedi in favor of doing my own, and being aware of each dollar I spend have all helped. Applying my tax refund helped, too! In the past I would have purchased something with those funds vs. using them to pay debt.
