Slimming World weigh in #61 – the one where I’m at my lowest again…

by StaceyUpdated on April 20, 2016April 21, 2016

So I was a bit gutted with my weigh in last week after gaining yet again, and even though I knew I had a big meal out this week I was really determined not to have yet another gain. Quite frankly I am getting really annoyed at myself for yo-yo’ing up & down with the same few pounds which I have been doing since Christmas and now we are almost a third of the way through the year! I *only* have just over half a stone to go until the target I have set but it feels like there is no …

Salad in a Jar | Recipe (Slimming World friendly)

by StaceyUpdated on July 3, 2017April 16, 2016

I guess this one isn’t so much of a recipe, more a different way of doing something to make it more interesting, and a salad in a jar actually keeps a few days in the fridge*! This also makes it really handy for taking to work, or if you have a busy routine at home and don’t have time to stand chopping salad for making your lunch during the day, you can make 2 or 3 of these salad in a jar up on a night time, then they can be taken from the fridge and either enjoyed straight from …

Slimming World weigh in #60 – the one where I’m grumpy…

by StaceyUpdated on May 16, 2016April 14, 2016

After last week’s weigh in and feeling like I was back in the zone, I was raring to go to get that 2lb loss to get into that next stone bracket. I was on it all week, though we did go out for a carvery on Sunday but I filled my plate with veg; a few syns were possibly used on gravy, and stuffing, and a Yorkshire pudding… oh. Oops! I kept my syns down after that though to try and balance it out. I’ve been eating a lot more speed food again too though I’m not properly back on it with meal planning …

Bioglan SmartKids vitamins | Review

by StaceyUpdated on April 18, 2016April 9, 2016

I try to give the boys a wide variety of foods so they receive all of the vitamins and minerals they need, without having to take a supplement. Jacob seems to go through phases where he will eat a lot of different foods but at other times he will just eat the same thing and refuse others he has tried previously. He does try and eat a huge variety of fruit, but vegetables not so much. For this reason, I do like to give him extra vitamins and recently he has been trying some products from the Bioglan SmartKids range. We …

Slimming World weigh in #59 – the one where I’m back on it…

by StaceyUpdated on April 7, 2016April 8, 2016

After last week’s weigh in and yet another maintain but managing that photo of the “fat jeans”, I was feeling a bit more determined and in the zone. I did a little more meal planning last week and I was on it for most of the week; we did have a meal out one evening and I did go for a healthier option, but I couldn’t resist cake… Oops. I ate a lot of speed fruit & veg though, started a food diary again, and stayed mostly within my syns so I think that really helped. I must have been back in …
