Creating a budget

Hello:

I have been posting in the past regarding my debts of $42,000 and now have decided to go with credit counseling.

This will mean $700.00 a month in payments and any extra monies I make (part-time work) will be for me.

Can someone share with me tips for creating a budget? I have one from the show Maxed Out and another one from a financial planner that lists everything plus totals it for the year.

At the moment, I am keeping track of every penny I spend so that I can allocate the monies correctly.

Thanks,
L.
