Weigh in #30

It's been a pretty crappy year so far. And because I always turn to food when things aren't good my weight loss has gone completely out of the window and I have crept up and up and up. Many of the new dresses I bought no longer fit, I'm back in 18 jeans, and while I am thankfully no where near my original weight I am much much heavier than I want to be.

I've had a few false starts this year, but the season has changed, the sun is trying to break through, and I think I am finally ready to get this show back on the road!

Now for the painful bit.... weigh in.

I am 13st 5lb 2oz this morning (187lb 2 oz). That's almost as much as I was just after my youngest baby was born. It's a gain of over 2 stone 5 lb (33 lb!!!)

I had promised myself not to get over 11 stone. So there's a real kick in the teeth.

I have signed back up for Weight Watchers - not sure why I cancelled (put that down to a depression induced error!). I have contacted Fitbit about my Flex which packed in a month ago, and they are kindly sending me a replacement. Now I just need to get my head round this new Smart Point system and figure out a way to incorporate steps into my working week!

Lets start with some goals!


  • Lose some weight - any amount will do!
  • Get to grips with Weight Watchers Smart Points
  • Find the courage not to tuck into the kids snacks every time I feel emotional!




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

Wedding List.... (OMG)

A new kitchen.... Really! We need one! So I've been saying to people that we'll want either B&Q or Ikea vouchers... Only I can't say which yet because I haven't choosen which one I like best: B&Q Oak Shaker style: ( on froogle ) ( on their site ) Ikea: Tildaholm BECAUSE... our kitchen is REALLY badly laid out, the storage is dropping to bits, the seal round the sink is black and festering, the oven hasn't worked for YEARS (the hob and grill are ok though), the seal on one of thef ridge doors has gone too, and the floor... half tiled, half bare concret! But now I have to choose which one I like best, and get the measurements sorted out, and then get the prices for what I can have in the space we've got... PHEW!

Recipe Review: Hairy Bikers liver & bacon with onions & gravy

I need a bit of comfort food at this time of year. I really love this recipe from The Hairy Bikers:  Liver and bacon with onions and gravy  and freely admit that I have whipped this from the BBC Food website. I follow the recipe (but sometimes chuck some mushrooms in too) and split it four ways at 11 pro points per serving. It's a classic, and even my 6 year old likes liver cooked like this - the 4 & 2 year olds need a little extra ketchup to convince them. The Hairy Bikers’ traditional liver and bacon makes a simple supper packed full of flavour and bursting with vitamins and minerals Ingredients 450g/1lb lambs’  liver , sliced and fully thawed if frozen 25g/1oz  butter 2 tbsp  sunflower oil 4 tbsp  plain flour 1  onion , halved lengthways and sliced 125g/4½oz rindless streaky  bacon  rashers, each cut into 4–5 pieces 1  beef stock  cube 500ml/18fl oz  jus t-boiled water 1–2 tsp tomato  ketchup salt and freshly ground  black pepper Preparation method Rinse the liver in a cola
