It's been a while...

Since I last posted - Hello again!

To be truthful, I haven't felt like I've anything worth saying - life has pretty much just been ticking along, nothing new to add to the mix so to speak!

Weight loss is slow and steady! I briefly flirted with Slimming World again, until I realised that whilst it's a brilliant eating plan for some, it's always ended up making me feel bloated and bored with what I'm eating. It's too difficult at the moment to eat that differently to my parents, the kitchen is too small! So I've got back to calorie counting, not stressing too much when I go over, as I know I'm much more in control of what I'm eating. Smaller portions of the sweet stuff, soups for lunch and plenty of water seem to be working at the moment.

I had put on 3lbs since first posting but now I'm 7lbs down in total. So I'm pleased. It's going in the right direction!

The boy has been using his Jamie Oliver App to make some beautiful (if not completely healthy) meals...

Ham, Chicken & Leek Pie

My mum has now joined me at my weekly Zumba class at the local community centre - it's such good fun. De-stresses me on a Tuesday evening!

Some running around the canal has also featured on chilly mornings...

So that's about it!

Hopefully next post I'll have some more exciting news to share!
