I thought I'd do a bit of a 'What I ate in a week' post today but with a Slimming World twist as I'm at the stage where I need a bit of extra motivation to keep at it and I feel like this could do the trick!I haven't included everything I've eaten though, you're just going to get my evening meals. I've done a week's worth of Slimming World packed lunches in the past though if you want to check that out.Day one - SaturdayI made a homemade Slimming World Doner Kebab for tea on Saturday but because everyone was at the football, I left it on the keep warm function of the slow … [Read more...]
My Weight Loss Journey – Week 7 {9 March 2019}….
Progress is slow at the moment but I'm still feeling good as any progress is progress, right?I've got nothing too interesting to report this week but seeing as I never got time to write up last week's success I thought I'd do a bit of a two in one post!You might remember that week 5 was the week I was on holiday in New York eating my way through all the delights that New York has to offer whilst walking a million miles every day. I put on 2lb that week which was a mini-miracle in itself so I started week six feeling super determined to get rid of that 2lb straight … [Read more...]
My Weight Loss Journey – Week 5 {22 February 2019}….
Oh Dear! As far as Slimming World goes, 'oh dear' pretty much sums up my week as I was determined to enjoy my holiday in New York as much as possible so I rather generously gave myself a week off Slimming World.I've had an amazing week away with the kids though and although I know I could have made the effort and eaten much better than I actually did, I don't feel disappointed with myself in any way because I made a conscious decision to not stick to plan and to work extra hard when I got back to lose whatever I put on.When I stepped on the scales this … [Read more...]
My Weight Loss Journey – Week 3 {9 February 2019}….
This week was filled with temptation but I've just got back from my weigh in and surprisingly, I'm feeling pretty pleased with myself. Before I tell you the results of this mornings weigh in, let me tell you how my week went. ;-)We started the week with a date night meal out, then there was a Birthday, then a leaving buffet for someone at work and finally, to top it all off there was an Awards Dinner last night for work which involved a three-course meal and lots of Prosecco, shots and Rose. Imagine the temptations that came my way this week! I tried … [Read more...]
My Weight Loss Journey – Week 2 {2 February 2019}….
The second week of my weight loss journey was definitely more of a struggle than the first week! When I wrote my post last week I felt super motivated - a loss of 4lbs in my first week was a fantastic boost and I was over the moon and ready for a super successful second week.I was convinced that week two was going to be just as successful and had high hopes of matching my first week's loss but my willpower left the building around teatime on Saturday when I decided that a couple of extra grams of cheese on my Slimming World Syn Free Pizza wouldn't hurt anyone. In … [Read more...]
