Weekly Weigh In #15

  This week has beenk bonkers; I was in London on Monday evening, Tuesday was my birthday, and on Friday I was in Bristol for Blog Camp! I don’t think I’ve done too badly with food, though… Goal for last week Last week’s goal was “don’t f*** up.” I did Read more…

Weekly Weigh In #14

  The last few days I have been in hernia hell (it’s a real place, you don’t want to visit). And the worst part is, I know it’s all my own doing. Time to sort my shit out. Again. Goal for last week Considering how bonkers last week was, I Read more…

Weekly Weigh In #13

  I toyed with the idea of not even bothering with a weigh-in post this week, but I figure I can’t just not post if I know it’s not going to be good news! Goal for last week Last week’s goal was to stop the sugar… I have cut it Read more…

  Urgh. I’ve been eating sugar. I feel crappy for it but as yet, that’s not stopped me. Goal for last week Last week’s goal was to eat actual meals. I’ve done ok with that; I’ve started buying steak and cooking that in the evenings. I am severely lacking in Read more…

Weekly Weigh In #11

  I think I’m going to stop saying “this week has been busy” at the start of these posts – every week seems to be busy lately. Goal for last week Last week’s goal was to find a way to work my food and exercise around being busy… I picked Read more…

Bulletproof Coffee: Why I Add Butter To My Morning Cuppa.

Just lately, I’ve been putting butter in my coffee. The first time I did it, I posted a picture and was surprised by how many of my Facebook followers said “oh yes, I do that too.”  Since then I’ve posted several photos (I post a lot of photos), and lots of Read more…

Weekly Weigh In #10

I’ve been doing this for ten weeks now, and on my sugar-free journey for ten weeks. The last couple of weeks have been bonkers. My routine has gone out the window and I’ve barely been home during the day to work – which has meant I’ve been working in the Read more…

Weekly Weigh In #9

I fell completely off the radar this week, and didn’t update my New Me profile for days. There was a business event in town, and although I knew it was going to be a busy few days I was completely unprepared for just how busy. On Wednesday I arrived home Read more…

Weekly Weigh In #7

This week was S’s birthday, and with one thing and another I was fairly stressed. I’ve not eaten brilliantly, but it has been better than last week! I think using New Me is helping though; it focuses the mind to have to record everything you eat, but also it shows me Read more…

Book Review: Sweet Poison

Anyone who has been following my social media channels of late will know that I’ve become a bit evangelical in my pursuit of the sugar free life. Having half-arsed my attempts at removing sugar from my life for several years, I read That Sugar Book last month, and it was Read more…

Weekly Weigh In #6

    This week has been tough, and something of an eye-opener. I’ve found that I have a real sugar addiction, and a habit too – I’m in the habit of eating (and drinking) sweet things, and when I don’t have sugar I get awful sumptoms – and will binge Read more…

This week has been interesting. I’ve not done as much exercise as I would have liked, because I ended up being fairly busy. But my eating has been better, and I’ve cut right back on sugar. Goal for last week I did cut right back on my sugar intake. I’m Read more…

Why I’m Giving Up Sugar

I wrote a post last week about how I intend to take part in Sugar Free September. I’ll be honest; after years of sugar highs (and lows, fixed by eating more sugar), I am a bit nervous as to how I will cope with the withdrawal. I have already begun Read more…
