Stacey in the Sticks

I was a bit disappointed after last week’s weigh in when I only lost half a pound. I was determined to have a loss this week so I had my game head on and vowed to plan for the week ahead. It kind of happened, as I did start writing a meal plan; but I only managed to put 3 things on it and it’s still sat on my kitchen counter. Oops. Anyway, I did manage to stay on plan all week, even at the weekend for Bonfire Night. We went to a display but we ate before we left, so I …

by StaceyUpdated on November 7, 2016November 7, 2016

It’s always an exciting day when I know our Degustabox is on its way. I love opening it up and seeing what’s inside. There hasn’t really been any that I’ve been disappointed in; I think there has only been 2 or 3 products over the last few months that I haven’t particularly liked.

The Wicked Uncle toy challenge | Review

by StaceyUpdated on May 23, 2018November 5, 2016

A few weeks ago we were contacted by the awesome guys at Wicked Uncle to see if the boys had an actual real life uncle who would be willing to take on the Wicked Uncle challenge. There was only one other requirement – the uncle had to have no children of his own. The boys have two uncles, and one has a daughter, so that left the other one! We will call him Uncle Wayne. (As we do in the video anyway!) We are the home of Brilliant Childrens’ Presents. So if there is someone out there who deserves a fun present …

Health Lifestyle Slimming World Weight Loss

Slimming World weigh in – the one with another award…

by StaceyUpdated on November 12, 2019November 2, 2016

After my gain at weigh in last week I was really annoyed with myself. It’s always after I have started heading down that slippery slope though, and never during; when I could grab myself and be able to stop it. Nontheless, I started the new week feeling (kind of) positive. I was still feeling a bit low, but I decided that I would try to be more on plan. And I was, mostly. Though, I may have gone over my syns ever so slightly a few days. And we went to a Halloween party on Saturday where I had a couple of …
