✨ THIS is why I bang on about PLANNING & PREPPING! ✨

I’m off to group this morning and I’m taking Arthur and Lillie-Paige with me. Once group is finished, I’m taking Lillie-Paige into town to get her school shoes. 👟

Now I already KNOW that by the time group finishes at just gone 11am, I’m going to be STARVING! 😂

And that’s exactly why I’ve prepped my food this morning.

I’ve made my fruit and yoghurt 🍓🥛

BUT I’ve also made myself a very sexy bacon, spinach & tomato wholemeal roll! 🥓🍅🥬

And there’s a reason for that…

Because when I get to town, I’m going to walk past the bakeries, the cafés, the food shops and all those lovely delicious smells that suddenly become 100 times more tempting when you’re hungry! 😂

I don’t want to be making food decisions when my tummy is rumbling and everything smells amazing.

So I’ve made the decision before I’m hungry.

I’ve got food with me.
I know what I’m eating.
I know it’s bang on plan.
And most importantly… I’m not going to be starving!

This is what I mean when I talk about planning and preparation being two of my biggest ingredients for losing weight and maintaining it.

It’s not about having amazing willpower 24/7.

It’s about knowing yourself.

Knowing when you’re likely to get hungry.
Knowing what situations might tempt you.
And putting a little bit of preparation in place BEFORE you get there.

Because honestly, it’s much easier to make a Food Optimising choice when you’re comfortably fed than when you’re absolutely ravenous and the smell of bacon rolls is following you around town! 😂

So have a think today…

Where are your tricky moments?

And what could you prepare in advance to make those moments just that little bit easier?

💚 Plan it. Prep it. Take the decision out of the moment.

Your future self will thank you for it! 🙌

🏃‍♀️➡️🥗 WHAT HAS RUNNING GOT TO DO WITH FOOD OPTIMISING?

Actually… quite a lot! 😂

Tonight I went out for a 7.5K run with a little goal in my head… could we sneak another PB? 👀

But I always give myself until around 3K before I decide what sort of run it’s going to be, because the first 3K is ALWAYS hard for me! 😂

Tonight there was a cough, a headwind, some absolute killer hills and by 3K I knew a PB wasn’t happening.

And do you know what?

I changed the goal.

I stopped chasing the number I had originally hoped for and decided my job was simply to settle in, keep going and put a shift in.

And I did.

That got me thinking…

Isn’t that exactly what we need to do with Food Optimising sometimes?

We start the week thinking:

💭 “I’m going to have a massive loss this week.”

And then life happens.

Maybe we have a meal out.
Maybe the weekend wasn’t quite as planned.
Maybe we’re feeling tired.
Maybe we didn’t get all the Body Magic in we wanted.
Maybe the scales simply don’t give us the result we expected.

And suddenly we think:

“Well, I’ve blown it.”

But what if instead we stopped, assessed where we are and changed the goal?

Maybe this week isn’t about getting that huge loss.

Maybe it’s about Food Optimising for the next meal.

Maybe it’s about getting back on track after a meal out.

Maybe it’s about choosing a Free Food instead of picking at something.

Maybe it’s about drinking what you enjoy, moving your body and getting your plan back into your routine.

Maybe the goal changes from “I need a big loss” to:

👉 “I’m going to have a really good week.”

Because here’s the thing I’ve learnt from running…

Not every run is a PB.

And not every week on the scales will be a big loss.

But that doesn’t mean the effort didn’t count.

Sometimes the biggest win is recognising that today isn’t going to be perfect, adjusting the goal rather than abandoning it, and putting a shift in anyway. ❤️

So if this week hasn’t gone exactly how you planned…

Don’t write the week off.

Change the goal. Not the journey. 💪

Now THAT is something worth taking into next week’s weigh-in. ❤️

💦 LET’S TALK DRINKS! 🥤☕️

Did you know that if you’re following Slimming World, you don’t have to drink gallons of plain water to Food Optimise? 👀

If you enjoy water, brilliant! 💧 Keep drinking it! But if you’re not a huge fan, there are plenty of other options too…

✨ Diet, Zero & Max fizzy drinks are FREE!
☕️ Black tea & coffee are FREE!
🌿 Fruit & herbal teas are FREE!
🥤 Sugar-free squashes are FREE!

So if you’ve been forcing yourself to drink endless glasses of water because you thought you had to… you don’t! 🙌

Hydration is important, but it doesn’t have to mean sitting there miserably clutching a giant bottle of water all day 😂

Find the drinks you actually ENJOY and make them part of your day! ❤️

And remember… Food Optimising should fit around YOU, not make you miserable! 🥰

✨ PLAN WENT TO PLAN THIS WEEK! ✨

A 1lb gain this week has actually done exactly what I wanted it to do — it’s put me nicely and safely back into my target range. ❤️

And this week has been another really interesting experiment for me.

I’ve been playing around with my Healthy Extras, savvy SWIPS and food choices, and I’ve added fibre-rich oats to my breakfast and olives as a healthy fat choice. 🥣🫒

And do you know what? It’s made a difference.

I’m feeling more satisfied, more balanced and more comfortable with what I’m eating.

But here’s the bit I really want to share with you…

Knowing YOURSELF is just as important as knowing the plan.

For me, bread is a huge trigger. 🍞
And crackers? LETHAL! 😂

I don’t do “I’ll just have a couple” particularly well — because a couple turns into more, and more turns into where did those crackers go?! 😂

So rather than pretending those foods aren’t a challenge for me, I’m learning what works for me.

And that’s what I want you to do too.

✨ Find the foods that keep you satisfied.
✨ Use your Healthy Extras wisely.
✨ Experiment with your SWIPS.
✨ Notice what leaves you feeling full and content.
✨ And be honest with yourself about the foods that you find harder to manage.

There is no one-size-fits-all way to make this lifestyle work.

The magic is in finding YOUR way. ❤️

I’m still learning, still tweaking and still experimenting — because even as a consultant and a target member, I don’t have it all figured out!

And I don’t need to.

I just need to keep finding that balance that makes this something I can happily live with for life. 💪✨

This week’s 1lb gain wasn’t a setback. It was part of the plan.

And I’m right where I want to be. ❤️

🔥 FULSTON MANOR — WHAT A MONTH! 🔥

I am STILL buzzing from last night! 😍

As a group, Fulston Manor has lost an incredible 108lbs throughout August! 🤯👏

That’s a whopping 7.7 STONE lost in one month! 🥳

But behind every single pound is a member making choices, planning ahead, Food Optimising, picking themselves back up, believing in themselves and — perhaps most importantly — having the support of this amazing group around them. ❤️

And then there’s this… 👀👇

🏆 FIVE CLUB 10 CERTIFICATES HANDED OUT IN AUGUST! 🏆

That’s 5 incredible members who have lost 10% or more of their starting body weight since joining Slimming World! 💪✨

These aren’t just numbers on a certificate. They represent commitment, consistency, determination and a whole lot of “I CAN DO THIS!” 🙌

And I honestly couldn’t be prouder of every single person who walks through those doors each Wednesday.

108lbs down in August… so what are we going to achieve in September?! 👀🔥

Who’s getting involved?
Who’s ready to make September YOUR month? 💪❤️

Come and join us at Fulston Manor, Wednesdays at 7pm — we’ve got the plan, the support, the encouragement and a whole group of people cheering you on every step of the way! 🥰

Fulston Manor… LET’S DO THIS! 🔥🔥🔥
