I know that lots of people are starting diets, new fitness routines and healthy eating plans now as part if their 2017 goals so you're probably sick of reading about them all but I'm jumping on the bandwagon today and kicking off a new series on the blog to share my progress as well as any tips and tricks I pick up along the way.I'm going to be following Slimming World as I lost over a stone last year with them and didn't find it difficult to slot in with my family's usual meals. I would have lost more and would have been a lot closer to my target weight right now but when I fell ill my … [Read more...]
Seven Syn Free party food snacks {Slimming World}….
Wait till you see the syn free party food snacks that I've got to share with you today - they make being on a diet at this time of year much more tolerable!Before I get to them though, I wanted to tell you about the Lidl Hot Air Fryer that they were cooked in because I was sent one to try a couple of weeks ago and it's been amazing.I've had an Air Fryer for a few years now and is one of the most used pieces of kit in my kitchen and before I tried I was convinced that a budget version of the one I had just wasn't going to be able to compete.When we unboxed the Lidl Hot Air Fryer, I … [Read more...]
Fakeaway chicken chow mein….
Fakeaway chicken chow mein is one of our favourite family meals and I'm pretty sure that if you try it, it'll quickly become one of yours too.Last night we had our favourite fakeaway chicken chow mein for tea and as I was cooking it, it occurred to me that I'd never actually shared my recipe with you! So, since I'm a nice person (honest) and I don't want you missing out on the chance to try this delicious meal I thought I'd share it with you today.It's great as a replacement for your local Chinese takeaway to save some money but it's also great for anyone who's doing Slimming … [Read more...]
Overnight Oats – what’s all the fuss is about?
Overnight Oats is my new favourite breakfast! It's filling, tasty and thanks to the fact that you make it the night before, it's also super quick on a morning when I'm rushing about. I can even pop it into my bag and eat it at work if I'm running late (which I often am). You can even make it Slimming World friendly.Overnight oats are something that I've heard about so many times both from fellow mums who want an easy breakfast option and from friends on Slimming World who swear by them for an easy but filling breakfast.Until a couple of week's ago, I'd never tried them because … [Read more...]
This week’s meal plan {2nd May}….
This time yesterday I was lazing in the sun with a (non alcoholic) cocktail in my hand waiting for a lovely Halloumi and ham salad to be delivered to my sunbed while I made the most of the last few hours in the sun before we left Cyprus to travel home. This morning I've woken up to grey cloudy skies, a mountain of washing and a week's worth of meals to plan!I'm actually quite looking forward to planning this week's meals if I'm honest - mainly because I've had a week off from my Slimming World diet thanks to our all inclusive holiday and I can't wait to get back on it again. The food in … [Read more...]
This week’s meal plan {21st March 2016}….
It's been a good while since I've shared my meal plan with you all hasn't it?We've not been doing too badly with our meal planning lately but I know there's a lot more we could be doing to be even better - and by better, I mean saving more time as well as more money by being more organised.Our new freezer was delivered yesterday so I'm hoping that I'm going to be able to fill that with batch cooking delights and that one big batch cooking session every now and again will be enough to keep us fully stocked. I'm just starting to get it sorted now and out Muscle Foods delivery isn't … [Read more...]
