Another Weight Gain

Yesterday was weigh in day and again Mr L and I didn’t have a great week.

He gained a pound.

I gained a pound and a half.

From loosing three stone a few weeks ago I am now back down to 2 stone 9 and a half pounds lost.

Which don’t get me wrong is still amazing in just over a year.

But it is also gutting when I was at three stone a few weeks ago.

I have to admit I find the summer months and being on slimming world really really hard.

People always say the winter is harder for weight loss.

I really don’t find that.

In the summer we are people that are never in.

We take every opportunity to head to the beach or Brighton or London in the summer, and we love to do it as a family. But that means that planning food etc does go out the window at times.

I know I could be more organised and plan meals out and picnics. But it doesn’t happen.

I am not that blooming organised.

And I don’t overly enjoy meals in the summer.

I am a grazer and that I find a real issue in the summer.

I would definitely give up a salad and cooking a meal for an ice cream and a couple of snacks.

You see in the winter I don’t overly have to change the way we eat.

I make our food in the morning, whack it in the slow cooker and we are good to go. We get lots of veg and nutrients in to us. And we seem to be a lot better at the weight loss in the winter.

The summer I find it much harder.

I need to really get my head around this and really change the way we eat and the way I plan our food over the next few months.

But I am really finding it very very difficult at the moment!
