Slimming World Update!

So.. I've been doing Slimming World for a total of 40 Weeks now, and i must admit its been more than a struggle for me.

I know that Slimming World work and is a great 'diet' to be on. Why? Because you can eat as much of the free foods on the plan as you want - foods such as, rice, potatoes, noodles and vegetable. What more do you want from a diet?

However, looking at all the foods you can as much as you want, would make you think that you would not want to eat all the rubbish foods and takeaways - it really does not.

I still find it hard to change my eating habit that has been with me for a very long time. So to say my Slimming World journey has been rocky is very accurate. 

As you can see from my graph it has been a rocky rocky road.


I got my 1 Stone Award on the 14 of April this year - since then I have gone on my American holiday and ate like a pig. I've struggled to get over the fact that my holiday is done and I need to get my focus back on losing weight.

My Slimming World Coach asks me most week when I've gained or maintained - 'How much do you want to lose weight' and every single time i tell her that it means a lot to me and i really do want to get to target. But in the moment when I am starving and need to each something quickly - I always turn to the wrong foods. Then, every Thursday on weigh day all the crap food that i have eaten goes through my mind and then i wish i done better that week - I wish I had made better food choices. 

A few weeks back I had a good week and it lost 2lbs! The most i had lost in a few week's and this has really given me the kick up the backside to keep going and get to target before christmas! 

This means a lot to me and I am the only one that is going to stop me from getting to where I want to be. So i am making a real effort to get to target before the end of the year.

15 lbs to target! - 16 weeks to go!

Nip + Fab Glycolic Fix Serum

Recently I have been trying a lot of night serums to try and improve the texture of my skin – I am glad to have found the Nip + Fab Glycolic Fix Serum. I haven’t really ever had the best textured skin, now that I wear make-up on a daily basis I notice the areas that are not the best even more. My make-up will stick to those areas or the texture pushes the make-up up over the area – this makes it even more noticeable to me. One night I took my make-up off and got really frustrated with my bad skin and took to google to find a product that would help me – the one that kept popping up and had good reviews was the Nip+Fab Glycolic Fix Serum. I quickly bought the product and as soon as it arrived I tried it out… needless to say I was not disappointed. I used this product   each night and it just blurs any bad texture areas, it makes my skin feel so soft which is what I look for from many of my skincare products. As this product blurs the texture it makes my make-up sit

Slimming World - Week 2

My first week back at Slimming World and I would say that it was a complete success! 99% of the time I was on plan with just one day where a Nandos may have happened!  It paid off! My first weigh in and I lost 2.5lbs! I am delighted, it just goes to show you that if you stick to it then it pays off and you will see the results that you want. If I lose 2.5lbs every week I will be one happy girl! Lets hope this week I am just as determined as I was last week! Start Weight - 12Stone 12.5lbs Current Weight - 12Stone 10lbs To Target - 1 Stone 10lbs Thanks, Stef x

Slimming World - Fresh Start

Following on from my 2017 Goals post I decided to write about my fresh start at Slimming World. As I said I joined Slimming World in December of 2015 and for the first few months I really enjoyed having a new project to focus my time and energy on. However, I do think I went about it the wrong way - in the beginning I restricted what I ate so much that I barely ate anything that was not completely free on the plan and barely used any syns - and even though back then I had great weight losses and was very happy with how I looked, there came a day where I cracked and ended up eating anything and everything that was bad for me. Because I restricted myself to so much from eating the things that I enjoyed i just broke and ever since then I never really looked at the plan the same way - I was never very committed to it after that. I really believe that having the 6 weeks away from the plan and allowing myself to miss then plan and miss eating the healthy foods that I used to, I
