After my loss of appetite for the last four weeks it seems this week it has returned with a vengeance. I have eaten so much rubbish – a couple of takeaways, quick meals for convenience as we’ve been rather busy with preparing to move, and then I’ve been snacking on more chocolate and biscuits than I usually would too. I did try to rein it back a bit in the couple of days before weigh in but I think I already knew I would be a lost cause at this one so I was gearing up for a gain. I …

Jacob at 3 years 5 months old
So I seem to be on time with this update – though I did miss his last one due to my blogging break but I thought I’d just skip straight to this one! His behaviour has improved so much in the last couple of months. We do still have our moments but nothing like it was before. I no longer go to collect him from nursery dreading what they are going to feed back to me that he has done this time. It feels a bit strange saying it as I obviously didn’t condone it before, but I’m glad he …
Recipe – Peanut butter & white chocolate cookies #GBBOBloggers2015
I always seem to struggle when it comes to biscuit week as I don’t really make many biscuits; I did very briefly consider the technical challenge but then I decided against it as I haven’t had a lot of time this week and this bake was actually only just done at 10.30pm on Saturday evening!

The cookies have just the right amount of peanut …
Slimming World weigh in #28 – the one with the missing weeks…
You may have noticed I have been MIA for the last few weeks. I’ve had a lot going on and had a little blogging break but I have still been going to weigh in – with the exception of one week. Anyway, I’ve been so up & down with being on plan, pretty much like a yo-yo! I lost my appetite for a while and was barely eating anything but then it started coming back and I was back in the game for a few days but then I went off track again for various reasons and was either eating …
Recipe – Black forest cheesecake (with a twist) #GBBOBloggers2015
I’m so excited that it’s the return of the Great Bloggers Bake Off! Jenny over at Mummy Mishaps did a wonderful job of hosting last year but this year she is handing the reins over to some other bloggers to guest host too and one of them will be me in a few weeks, eek! I’m very determined to add to my badge from last year for my salted caramel & chocolate tart, but we shall see. 😉 So the first week of the Great British Bake Off was cake week as per usual, and I was absolutely drooling over the black forest …
