Fighting the Flab for 2013

Come on own up, we've all done it. Made a New Year resolution to fight the flab, I have many times. Last Year I decided I was going to change my life style and not go on any more Diets.

So what I did was I choose the Healthier options.

This was me Maude Doodlebuns Flab Fighter by Just Inklined 

Maude Doodlebuns - (Flab Fighter)1

I was going round and round and slipping off the Diets time and time again, until I joined Slimming World, actually it was my daughter Lauren’s group, she is a brilliant motivator gives oodles of encouragement and her groups weight loss speaks for itself.

Maude Doodlebuns - (Flab Fighter)2

I was fat, frumpy, fed up and fatigued.

Laurens group taught me recipes, healthy choices and gave me the tools to get going, her phone is always by her so that if her members get stuck they give her a call and she sets them back on track, she simply loves her job.

Here is her details

or here on her Facebook page.

If you are in the area she will be at Asda in Peterlee tomorrow handing out her leaflets and giving away free Slimming World magazines so pop over and get yours and tell her I sent you.

I don’t often do this but look at the difference in my face in these two pictures the proof is not in the pudding, it’s in the photographs.

Before and after

If I can do it then so can you.

Lets Warm It Up a Little

Oh it’s been so cold and so dark this winter, don’t you think? I needed something fresh that would be sure to warm me up and I found it in Saturated Canary Digi’s.

Librarian is sure to warm the cockles of your heart.

What I got for Christmas

So I got the usual smellies, money and nightware, scarf, Downton Abbey book, Chocolates, a beautiful framed photo of Jack and his brother Kyle a necklace, and a charm, which brings me onto what Chris bought for me.

Pandora Bracelet he even let me have it before Christmas, (spoilt for sure)

I have bought more charms with the money I got and the cup and saucer charm is to go on.

I then spoilt myself with a treat and although I’m not a drinker these are superb.

they are Irish Coffee ready made from Sainsberry’s, you just pop them in the microwave for 45 seconds, the first one I tried blew my brains and I was in bed by 10pm.

I’m sitting sipping another while I type this.

I think I did very well.

Lauren called today and asked me to have Jack for a couple of hours, boy his gob never stops. I did manage however to get 10 minutes peace when i put the cartoons on TV for him.

How To Take Down The Christmas Decorations

I’ve pondered over this, I normally take down the Christmas Decorations on January 1st, I expect that will be the same this year, however I’m going to make it an easier job this year.

It’s not just the taking down but it is the thankless task of packing them away and getting them back into the loft until the following year.

So here is how I’m going to do it this year, I’ve enrolled the help of Fairy 3 by Mo’s Digital Pencil I am also going to give you the chance of also having her to help you.

I’ve coloured here with the new shades in FlexMarkers by Letraset here is the New colour chart new colours are marked with a *
