Hi Claire, at my first weigh in I lost 2lb. I was a little disappointed but it's a loss. I didn't give in and I've done quite a few dishes this week and I've had a dessert every evening after my meal. I'm hoping that I will still get a loss even though I'm having desserts. I have made some speedy veg soup and put it in the freezer and I've also made rice pudding this week and it was gorgeous. I did a crustless baked egg custard, cooked a gammon joint and I've made a cheese, onion and ham flan and some mini quiches. Stayed within my syns also, so I should hopefully lose a bit more on Tuesday evening, only time will tell. Trying to keep it interesting so I don't get stuck in a rut. Hope you get the loss you so deserve this week. Kind regards Angeline ❤️ xx
Sounds like some lush food xxxx hope your weigh in goes well and I’d be happy with 2lb that’s fab. Google what 2lb of fat looks like it’s a big chunk 😬
I’m sure the scales will be kinder next week x I’m just back from 7 weeks in Spain jumped on my scales this morning +6lbs eek so a couple of SP days before Wednesday weigh. Here’s to a good week for you & me both ❤
Hi Claire, well done on the loss, I didn’t get my bum in gear last week and so had no loss at all. Trying to get on track with you this week, so will be following along! Thanks for the poached eggs tutorial, mine this morning were a fail.. well one was perfect.. the other broke as I put it in 😝
Omg nothing annoys me more than a broken egg 😂 I end up with three on those days because I’m absolutely putting another in if one breaks !!! I weigh tonight 🤞🏼
Hey I’ve lost 22 pounds so far , another 22 to go , I’ve been sitting down on a Sunday and planning my meals , looking through the cooking books I’ve bought , I’ve been writing down my daily meals , I think all these things really work , planning ahead for Christmas with the new Christmas book , average about 2 pounds loss a week . Love your videos by the way x
That’s amazing and you are right planning is absolutely key x you are doing so well bet you feel pleased with yourself ? I’m making mushroom stroganoff from the Christmas book this week x
Thanks for another happy chatty video Claire👍😍 I’ve had some blow outs and a late holiday like you…. Today’s a new day and THE DAY!!! To start afresh. Good luck to us all with our week. ( where did u put the mummy code please) xxxxx

Well done hun. I only maintained this week and I was strict too 😢. I’m on a mini pill so don’t get monthly’s which is annoying in some ways but good in other ways lol 😂. I’ll just struggle to know if in menopause lol ❤xx
I’ve been at target for 18 months and I put on a couple of pounds on holiday. I stayed on plan last week, walked 40 miles, did Aqua, Pilates and Yoga and lost half a pound! Not fair but I have stuck at it this week. I know it’s not SW pc but maybe cut down on free foods that are carbs. Staying on it is key, it could be fluid as you say!
I so relate with your not liking touching sponges!!!. They make my hair stand on end😂, would not even wash my kids with a sponge when they were small!!. If I do have to use a sponge I cover it with a face cloth😅😅😅😅
If it makes you feel any better I weighed week before last had just came on totm and maintained! I had been bang on plan… stuck to it lost 4.5lbs the next week 😊❤
Well done for your half pound, im same thing due on, I be on plan but scales staying the same nearly bk on taget ,good luck for your next weigh in , I got that christmas books yer some nice meal on there, your food look yummy
3lb loss this week. Had a pound gain the previous week . Its very up and down , I’m not beating myself up about it though as I’m only 3 months post hysterectomy
Hi Claire, have you heard of the whoosh effect? This could also be a reason why it’s only half a pound this week. Can I please ask - do you have a video showing you making your stir fry? If not, how much of each of those sauces etc do you put into your stir fry please? Thanks. Px
Hey no I have not ?!?! No I forgot to video to be be honest 😂 I’m a bit of a splash and dasher I honestly don’t really measure or have any particular order I just chuck it in 🫣 I’ll remember to film it next time as I make this at least once a week. Cx
Sorry about your loss, next week will show much better for you I am sure 🥰. Your jumper looks lovely. Can I ask how long did it take to dry your washing pleas on the heated dryer? Constant battle with hubby as he doesn't want wet washing in the bungalow and being a 1970's build it is prone to damp . Your stir fry looked fab, I love Oyster Sauce too. I have recently bought a new frying pan from Ninja, I was very sceptical as it says you don't need any oil. It doesn't 😊. I got back into the top of my target by 1/2 lb which I was so pleased. Hoping for 2 lbs this week but I have to cut the syns to below 10 a day. I now need 6 1/2 to get to where I want to for Christmas. Good luck for this week xx Forgot to say, have you had any of the SW Kitchen meals yet?
Yes that was my husbands concern , I got the cover for it I didn’t time it tho it was on for a good few hours but everything was nice and dry we do have room in the garage which is where I will put it , I have seen some I think Minky do one too that collect the water. The oyster sauce is lush 👌🏼 I’ve had two boxes I did blog the first one the meals were fab 🙌🏼
@@clairemariehoward Thank you for the info Claire🥰 sadly we have my husbands motor bike and our garden furniture in the garage along with the freezer and tumble dryer , even the dog struggles to get in there 🤣Now you mention it I think I saw the video about the SW box, the menopause has a lot to answer too 🤣. Have a great week x
Hi love your vlogs you are so honest and encouraging thanks x
Thank you so much!☺️

I only lost 1lb last week and had hoped for 2lbs.
It’s a good loss I always hope for more 😂 but at the end of the day down is good , slow and steady wins the race 👌🏼👍🏼🙌🏼
I wasn’t much better. Seemed to be doing everything right but only lost a pound. But not giving up 😂
No don’t give up !!! We will get there 😉
