This week I have had a lot of things going on and I have been quite busy for the last few days. Normally when I have a few days like this I have a habit of going for the easy food options as well as mindlessly snacking on crisps and chocolate in the evenings. This … Continue reading Resisting Temptation

4lbs Down

First Few Days
I have now completed my first few days on weight watchers and I have to say I am enjoying it so far. I am not just liking the change of the app and the move away from obsessing over calories all the time when I am tracking but I am also enjoying the way that … Continue reading First Few Days
New Diet

This means that I have been having quite a … Continue reading Curbing my Snacking Habit
