Well, I have been massively slacking with the updates these last couple of weeks! And now I will tell you why!
Week 9
I was very much looking forward to this weigh-in. I had been good all week and felt that I deserved a good loss. Nothing. Not a smidgen. I stayed the same. To say I was downhearted would be an understatement so this then made me take a week off Slimming World. I decided I was going to eat what I wanted, when I wanted for a whole week. I had cake with half inch thick frosting, KFC, McDonalds, pizza and chips (along with all sorts of other naughty "treats") and I enjoyed every bit of it. I know it was completely pointless rebelling as it was only myself I was rebelling against but I needed it. The main reason why I needed it was to reaffirm to myself that even if I maintained, if I went back to how I used to eat then the weight would soon pile back on.
Week 10
Needless to say I was expecting a gain and I got one. 3lbs on. But, I had got it out of my system.
Week 11
One week fully focused and straight back on plan and I lost the 3lb from my naughty week. I'm glad I did it - and it shows that the plan does work and this was just a blip for me. Onwards and hopefully downwards!

Week 9 -
This weeks challenge set to us by the lovely Sue Glenn is to have 4 S foods with each meal and to try 1 new S food a day that we have never tried before.
I will modify the challenge slightly and aim for the 4 S foods with our evening meal mainly due to budget, however I am quite excited about trying a new S food each day!
Saturday: Chinese Pear
This looks like an apple and tastes very faintly like a pear. It has the same texture as a pear and is incredibly juicy but the flavour just isn't very strong. Saying that, I would happily eat another one.
Sunday: Kale
I decided that I was going to try out Crispy Kale! I had heated the oven to 180 degrees c. and laid out the Kale on a baking tray. Spray with Fry Light and sprinkling of sea salt. I left it in the oven for 15 minutes... which was way too long! Sadly, mine came out all brown so 10 minutes would be sufficient! They definitely tasted like chips though... even though they were brown and overcooked!
