Slimming World weigh in #54 – the one where I’m up again…

by StaceyUpdated on April 11, 2024March 4, 2016

I never made weigh-in this week as it was Noah’s birthday, and I never got around to writing last week’s update either, so this is it – we will hopefully be back to normal next week! So last week, I was very, very good all week.

After my pleasing weigh in last week I went away from group feeling confident about the week ahead. I had no plans to put me off track and I was determined to lose that one more pound to get me back to my pre-Christmas weight.

I’m sure we all know that Valentine’s Day is just around the corner as we cannot avoid the masses of chocolate, teddies and flowers popping up everywhere – but I don’t want any of that! I must admit I am usually rather anti-Valentine but if somebody my husband was to surprise me with a gift of something from the tech world, I would be over the moon at that! You can give me that over hearts & flowers any day. Just in case my husband is watching, here are the top three items on my tech wish list: Panasonic Lumix …
