So after my last couple of weigh ins I was really disappointed with myself as I was just so out of the zone and I knew I absolutely needed to get back on track. Last week was okay and I was mainly on it, but my head just wasn’t completely back in the game as I had a Subway breakfast sub on Saturday and I have had the odd few biscuits here & there (damn those favourite custard creams! Unfortunately there aren’t any biscuits I don’t like…). I had been a lot better than the couple of weeks over Christmas though when I …

Slimming World weigh in #45, #46, and #47 – the one with Christmas & New Year…
I thought I had posted an update for weigh in #45 – i.e. my pre-Christmas-hoping-to-lose-enough-to-stay-above-3-stone-loss-update – but it seems not! Well I can’t quite remember that far back anyway, though I will give the stats update at the end as usual. I must have been pretty good though as I had a 2lb loss giving me 2.5lb to play with, to stay above 3st loss. After my pre-Christmas weigh in I wasn’t actually too bad, then starting on Christmas Eve it just all went out the window. I’m not going to beat around the bush, I was an absolute pig. …
Slimming World weigh in #43 and #44 – the one where I get my 3 stone!
Once again I forgot to post my last weigh in update, and that was the one I really wanted to post! After my last update I was still back on it, writing everything down, even if I went over my syns. And I think most of us do regularly at some point, but I know I can usually pull it back if I’m in the right place. I was really determined to get that 3 stone so I was meal planning too and eating lots of speed food, and it seemed to work. I wasn’t in group last week though as I was …
Cheese & bacon stuffed mushrooms | Recipe (Slimming World friendly)
Since I started my Slimming World journey, I have eaten a much larger variety of lunches. Previously it used to be just a sandwich as it was quick & easy and took less than a minute to throw together, but it did get a little boring every day and I soon realised how much bread and carbs I really did eat, which wasn’t so good with PCOS either. Recently I’ve found large flat mushrooms to be a really great alternative to bread, even being used as a pulled pork ‘burger’! These stuffed mushrooms are one of my favourite lunches now …
Slimming World weigh in #42 – the one where I’m almost there…
Once again I never managed to write an update last week, though in the last one I did write, I said I felt like I was back in the game. Well. Until last week that was. When I had a monumental gain of 2lb! I know it’s not a lot really, but I was quite annoyed with myself that I was doing so well again and I sabotaged myself that week by eating maybe a few more naughty things than I should have. I went away from group that night with my line drawn, my positive head screwed on, and I was …
