First Challenge of 2015

I have been taking part in a few Mini Challenges since restarting this diet - Halloween Hotties & Christmas Crackers - because I find that smaller, easier to achieve goals, help me along. I completed the Halloween Challenge! Hubby completed the Christmas one. Now I am starting a new one: Valentine Vixens (or reynards... as Hubby deemed Vixens sexist, but it doesn't have the same ring to it).

My first two challenges were both for a stone weight loss. But I figured that people like an ego boost, a lift to their morale in the New Year, especially if (like me and the Hubs) you have gained a little over Christmas. So this challenge is just 7lb. Lose half a stone by Valentines Day Weekend. Of cause... more would be even better!

So we are taking this last weeks measurements as a starting point and we're on our way! I have started the group on Weight Watchers (for fellow WW Onliners) and on my Facebook group page (for my friends and family that are using Slimming World or not using a slimming club) and the feeling is pretty high for now.

It's all good motivation! Not just for me, but for the Hubby and everyone who has joined us along the way!

Facebook has changed it’s policy for posts to Facebook pages like mine. They are only showing posts to a few likers unless I pay to boost the views. Since I don't earn money from my blog (or at least not much, not even enough to buy one posh a coffee a week) I wont be doing that. The best way to make sure you will see my blog posts is to subscribe by email up there on the right. I usually only email once a week and include an invitation to my blog hop so you can share your posts too.

You can also go to my page, hover over the “liked” button and select get notifications. Then you will see my posts and status updates in your notifications. Mumma Walker on Facebook

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
