That's a lazy title, even by my standards but I'm going with it! At the end of the Santa Shred I was sitting at 202lbs. This was a number I'd seen before and I was so close to that elusive 'one-derland' magic number so there was no doubt that I was going to continue in … Continue reading 20/20 Vision

Hello to three of you that will probably read this. It’s been a while eh? In fact the last proper post here was actually on Shrove Tuesday in 2017 so almost four years have passed – wow! Those of you who know me away from this blog, either in real life or via the medium … Continue reading Since you’ve been gone…
Where did you go....? Hey everyone! It's been a minute since I posted here eh? I think it's high time I got back into this and started sharing a little of my latest news! What do you reckon?
It's the last day of February and its pancake day...not that I'm partaking. I eat pancakes at least once a week anyway so it's not really a treat for me and on the back of a week of being ill I really don't have the appetite for them. I'm now on day 7 of no … Continue reading Reality Bites
Ugh. I'm poorly. Woke up with a headache this morning and one of those intermittent coughs that feels like you've swallowed a bag of nails. I've had a bad back all day, and have just generally felt like total arse. I had a gym session planned tonight. Legs. I decided around 4pm there was no … Continue reading Fail Whale

My stock answer is discipline. To illustrate, here are some motivational image quotes: I'm not sure it's strictly … Continue reading Procrasti-Kates
If you were to ask me what my number one tip is when it comes to losing weight and adopting a healthier lifestyle I would say consistency and accountability. That's not to say you have to do the same things all the time but focusing on what you want to achieve and continuing to work … Continue reading Destination Unknown
Weighed in today, and I've lost 0.2lbs in the last week. Fucking wow. Am I going to go into a huge fucking epic meltdown? Am I bollocks. Am I happy with that? Put simply, no. I lost 11lbs in two weeks so for this week to be, quite frankly less than a decent poo, is … Continue reading The Adjustment Plateau
Well, well, well... Who knew that a little innocuous #AwayDayPieGirl hashtag and my fortnightly cheat meal would lead to me being accepted as a judge for the 2017 British Pie Awards on 8th March in Melton Mowbray. Yes, me! I'm beyond thrilled. It has lead me to the conclusion that while this started as my … Continue reading Pie-volution
If you know me, or if you follow me on social media, you'll know that I do love a challenge. I've been taking on various things for years, although it stated with a ten mile midnight walk for Severn Hospice maybe 10 years or so ago? Now I was a big girl back then. I … Continue reading Walking Bucks and Happiness
