Slimming World weigh in #76 – the one with the lowest again…

by StaceyUpdated on August 11, 2016August 12, 2016

After my unwanted gain at weigh in last week, I went away from group feeling a little deflated but determined to lose this week. I didn’t want to go back down the road of gaining or maintaining week in, week out like I had been doing up until a few weeks ago; especially with my target so close to sight! I didn’t have any social plans for this week so there was nothing to stop me from going off plan – except myself! And so I may have taken steps to potentially sabotaging myself, and had a Chinese takeaway a …

Our favourite five – July | Anniversaries, sunshine, and spa trips

by StaceyUpdated on July 3, 2024August 9, 2016

I can’t believe it’s that time again where we are looking back on our favourite five for the month. July was a fairly quiet month for us; it was our wedding anniversary at the beginning of the month but other than that, we have just been enjoying being outside in the summer sun (well, when we have had it, anyway!). I’m not sure how August is going to pan out; most likely last minute school preparation for Jacob as he has his final days at nursery towards the ends of the month. I can’t believe it’s school time for him …

by StaceyUpdated on August 7, 2016August 8, 2016

After the new products we tried from the June Degustabox I couldn’t wait for our July box to arrive. I love delving into a subscription box and discovering what goodies are inside for me to try! The July Degustabox seemed to be centred around summery drinks with a few treats and of course healthier products to enjoy too. So what was inside the July Degustabox?

An introduction to DryNites ConfidentNites

by StaceyUpdated on February 13, 2026August 4, 2016

I mentioned a few weeks ago how Jacob & I are DryNites® ConfidentNites ambassadors. He has been using the DryNites for a few weeks now and we have already seen an improvement in dryness during the night. Over the course of the next few months I will be sharing our journey via a series of vlogs on YouTube. In this first vlog, I am giving you an introduction to DryNites® and the ConfidentNites Guide. I recently attended a sleep retreat with some of the other ambassadors and I brought back so much useful information and many tips that I hope …

Slimming World weigh in #75 – the one where it’s going up…

by Stacey August 3, 2016August 3, 2016

After my gain at weigh in last week I went away from group still feeling positive for the week ahead, even though I was a little annoyed at myself with my gain. I knew I had a night away coming up (which I really enjoyed, and some of my food was on plan – lots of speed food!) so I was on plan up until then, and then I was right back on it the day after I got back. I did expect a bit of a gain this week as I usually do have if I have been off plan for …
