Slimming World weigh in 67 – the one where I’m closer…

After my big loss last week I went away from group feeling really motivated and determined to head for that next stone bracket. I was on it all week, until it got to Sunday. We went to Uncle Henry’s farm shop for their Open Farm Sunday (which was brilliant with lots to do!) and I managed to avoid eating and buying the cheese, crisps, hog roast, ice cream or cakes, while hubby had a hot dog and the boys had cakes – I was quite proud of myself! But then we went for a carvery dinner afterwards, at which I loaded my plate up …

Cheesy bacon risotto | Recipe (Slimming World friendly)

I love the fact that on the Slimming World plan I can eat as big a portion of risotto as I like and not have to worry about the calories in the rice, though it is really filling so you don’t need much anyway! Though the only meat in this Slimming World risotto is bacon, it still tastes really meaty due to the stock, and you could chuck in even more speed veg to make it extra weight loss fueled! The cheese adds an extra dimension of flavour. This one could be made into a veggie version if you omit …

I was pretty disappointed after last week’s weigh in and my 1.5lb gain, and I was determined to lose again this week as I am getting fed up with myself yo-yo’ing now. We did attend a wedding do on Friday evening and although I did eat dinner before we left, I may have had a second dinner when I discovered they had a hog roast and chocolate fountain on the go… You just have to, don’t you? I was on plan the rest of week though; other than the day before weigh in when I felt under the weather (and also had a …

Thinking back, I must have been on some sort of “diet” – air quotes because I dislike the word, but anyway – for almost 10 years. I gained lots of weight when I met my (now) husband; you know, when you get settled into a comfortable relationship and therefore life, and the weight just creeps on. And before you know it, boom, you have gained 3 dress sizes in less than a year! I only really noticed this when I went away to University, and obviously with lots of boozy nights and takeaways happening, it just crept on, and on, …

After last week and yet another small loss, although I knew why it was a small loss, I have to admit I was feeling a bit deflated. I feel like I’m not really getting anywhere at the moment though I know this is sometimes my fault, and in part it’s because of my PCOS. I’m kind of at that stage where I feel like giving up, but I am most definitely not going to. I have come really far in a short space of time – compared to previously anyway when I have tried to lose weight – so I know …
