Congratulations, Michelle 🙌❤️

‘This Diabetes Week, I want other people to know that change is possible when you are kind to yourself and have the right support. Small changes add up to make a big difference to your health 🙌.’

After being diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and becoming increasingly worried about her health, Michelle joined Slimming World to make sure she’d be around to see her grandchildren grow up ❤️. With the right support and by making small, sustainable changes, she began to feel more confident in managing her health – and over time, she noticed significant improvements. Now 7st 10lbs (49kg) lighter, she finds everything much more manageable and her blood sugar levels are in a normal range 💪.

😎 This week’s award winners 😎

I am so proud of the success that my members are having! 💪Well done to all who’ve walked through my group doors this week - whether they earned a weight loss award, saw a result they were happy with, or simply showed up for themselves! 🫶🙌

Helen has worked so hard to lose 4 stone, and is feeling spectacular about her transformation, in time for her son’s wedding in August. Amanda joined us last week and has lost an incredible 8lbs after just one week of food optimising! Fiona and Terri are flying high on their journeys - and check out the Slimmer of the Week basket at the Haggate 5pm group! 😍 Terri’s carrier bag nearly broke carrying all those Slimming World goodies home 😆 The Ightenhill members are rocking it right now, losing around 7 stone between them over the past 2 weeks! Diane, Michelle, Marc, Bernadette, and Mark have all left group this week with big smiles on their faces ❤️

Are you ready to join our supportive community and start seeing real results? 😁

That’s exactly what one of my new members who joined this week has decided. She set her target at half her start weight, and I assured her that it’s entirely possible with our support.

My groups run again from next Monday. If you’ve been inspired reading this post - and you’re in the Burnley area - come down and find out how we can help you, or get in touch for more info. Sophie - 07367342816 ☎️

🎉 Slimmer of the week 🎉

I am super duper chuffed with a 2.5lb weight loss this week, following an attempted SP week. I’d say I managed to stick to the SP plan for 80% of the time.

Some of my favourite meals in particular were:

🫶 Eggs & greens with a combo of pan fried broccoli, courgette & spinach, with garlic, smoked paprika, and a Laughing Cow triangle stirred through the eggs 🥦

🫶 Leftover chilli and salad 🥬

🫶 Bacon & chickpea scramble with red onion, chive cottage cheese & fresh mint 🥓

🫶 Tuna mayo, chickpea & cottage cheese stuffed peppers with fresh mint and lots of salt & pepper 🫑

🫶 Campfire stew with smoked gammon, green lentils, carrots & swede 🥕

☀️ Visiting Blackpool: all-you-can-eat buffet edition ☀️

What a glorious day it was in Blackpool yesterday 🥰

The day began with Zoats (zucchini oats) for breakfast. I finely grate about a third of a courgette into my porridge 🥣 after it’s had a minute in the microwave. Then I give it another 30 seconds or until it’s about to erupt over the sides of the measuring jug. I serve up and drizzle with honey and cinnamon as I would with my regular porridge 🍯

We stopped at Gregg’s en route, and naturally, I opted for boiled eggs (last pack on the shelf - phew!) and a Coke Zero.

At Blackpool Tower circus, I had a Fanta Zero whilst Shaun ate his sausage roll and everyone else had ice cream.

Lunch was a turkey and ham salad with two poached eggs from Subway.

The birthday party continued at Mr Basrai’s all-you-can-eat buffet at tea-time. I did a couple of laps of the buffet for recon purposes, and decided to begin with the meat cooked to order. The sirloin steak looked lean and I served it with egg fried rice, mushrooms and green beans from the Chinese section (excellent veggies but the steak was a little over-cooked for my liking).

For plate number two, I filled it with salad and some more egg fried rice and then went for a lovely piece of steamed fish which was very tasty and I didn’t find a single bone 🙌

I avoided the cakes and chocolate fountain in the dessert section, and managed to escape with a scoop of mango ice cream, some tinned peaches and grapes 🍇

Overall, very pleased with my food choices in Blackpool, and I am confident that the scales will reflect my focus and determination this week 🙏❤️
