The diet starts NOW

I have seen my sisters-in-law shed the pounds over recent weeks (I hope they don't mind me mentioning) as they are both going to Slimming World sessions. I'm feeling a little shamed by my expanding waistline particularly against theirs reducing....

So I am going back to Weight Watchers starting today. I have all the kit, I am signed up on the Internet site already (have been for ages) and I'm really going to try hard. I've don't it before, I can do it again.

We've all got a lot bigger in this house over the last year or two, and we can't blame it on having Jack any longer! Our 18 month son has a better view of food than us, taking fruit and veg over pizza and chocolate.... At least we have taught him well, even if it isn't by example!

There are better reasons than just seeing my sisters-in-law looking lovely and slim though. Winters on its way, and a healthier diet will help my depression. Being slimmer will improve our chances of having another baby, and we can't afford to buy a whole load of fat clothes when we have perfectly good medium and slim cloths clogging up our bedroom untouched!

SO! Here's ticker (coz I love em)

Recipe: Pigsty Pie

This is one that we made up, although we are far from the first or only people to make a pie using pork or pork mince and call it a Pigsty Pie. So let's just say that this is our version of it. It smells great and reminds me of stuffing at Christmas, making it feel much more "naughty" than it is! This serves four people and it a nice 9 points per serving. You will need these for the mash: 400g potatoes 400g sweet potatoes 4-5 good sized carrots Salt Pepper Nutmeg Simply chop the roots, boil in salted water until tender, and mash! Add salt, pepper and nutmeg to taste. The pie filling: 10 sprays low fat cooking spray (e.g. 1 cal) 1/2 lb lean pork mince 2 onions, finely chopped 3 apples, diced 1 leek, chopped 5-6 big mushrooms 2 tbs plain flour 1 tsp sage 1 tsp parsley Salt Pepper 1 vegetable stock cube 1/2 hot water 2 tsp English mustard Fry the onions in the cooking spray until they start to soften, add the mince. Once the meat starts to colour add the apple, leek and mush
