Musings of a Slimming World target member | #2

by StaceyUpdated on November 11, 2019August 19, 2017

It’s been a while since I wrote my first musings post; almost six months, in fact! I thought now was about the right time to get my thoughts down again. Since that last post, I haven’t found staying at target much easier. I still haven’t managed to get back to “bang on” target, so I obviously haven’t managed to get back to where I was before Christmas either. I would have felt like a fraud writing this before, as I’ve been out of target for the past month; but I finally got back into it this week. If I’m being honest – and …

Hair Removal Methods – The Ultimate Guide

by StaceyUpdated on August 17, 2017August 18, 2017

The process isn’t too bad in the winter, as I just let that winter coat grow – ha! But during the summer, it’s a really tedious process for me. My hair grows so quick that I have to shave my legs and armpits every day, or wear something that covers my whole leg if I can’t be bothered or don’t have time.

Taking care of your child is one of the toughest, but most rewarding jobs in the world. Part of raising children means teaching them right from wrong. Being a parent can also mean countless sleepless nights and a lot of nappies. But most of all, parenting involves raising a happy and healthy child. Children begin getting their first teeth around 7 to 11 months of age. It is a painful process where your little one might cry uncontrollably at night and may even stop eating.

Our July favourites | The foodie edition!

by StaceyUpdated on June 27, 2025August 11, 2017

Welcome to our July favourites – the foodie edition! July meant the beginning of the summer holidays for the boys, so we’ve been trying to have lots of fun! We’ve had a few days out, dog walks, but one thing we haven’t been doing is playing outside a lot. What is the weather all about this summer?! It’s bloody miserable, I think we’ve had rain on more days than not. We haven’t even had the paddling pool out yet, or the bouncy castle. Hopefully, sometime before we go on holiday, we’ll be able to.
