After my post-holiday weigh-in last week, I was raring to go and ready for a loss this week. I’ve been on plan since we came back from holiday, and I found it quite easy to get right back into it, more so than I thought. We went to my brother-in-law’s for dinner on Saturday, and I might have eaten a whole pizza – piglet! I was right back on plan on Sunday, though and managed to get a lot of speed food to balance the naughty.
I mentioned in my last weigh in update that we were going on holiday last week so there wouldn’t be one, but we’re back now and I’ve been for my post holiday weigh in!

You could of course change the fruit in it, and the flavour of the Hi-Fi bar, but I thought it was really tasty just like this. It takes just five minutes to whip up too, and you could …
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 …
