18 hours ago by traceysblog I could lie and say that I sat and ate a salad but instead I'll say that I have zero regrets, you have to live and tomorrow is a new day. This is a lifestyle change and sometimes you just need to eat #fishandchips by the sea ☀ #slimmingworld #bray
3 days ago by traceysblog Doing a sensory walk in #playschool I cannot express how sad I am that his play school closes in a few days. He adores it and I have never met people who are so genuine and perfect for the vocation of early years education. I feel such a mix of emotions.

Steep 5 in boiling water, drain and mash in to a paste, add two eggs, vanilla essence, cinnamin and sweetner. Add to a lunch box and microweave for 7 minutes. Its quite dry but serve with yoghurt and fruit and its really lovely! Really great for the owl digestive system! Got the idea from @slimwithjoanne Just weighed in at @slimwithlynne group as had no car to go to weigh-in last…
4 days ago by traceysblog Today was one of those really special days with my boy. He was just so sweet and caring & loveable.

5 days ago by traceysblog We'e turned a corner. All his spots are healing and he should be in play school tomorrow. No longer contagious and delighted to be out and about.

6 days ago by traceysblog Yesterday's dinner was Big Mac in a bowl so delicious. The cheese is Tesco light cheese slices (3 as hexa) and there is tonnes of speed with the lettuce, tomato, onion and gherkin. The sauce is 1 tabelspoon of the Hellmann's Chunky Burger sauce (1.5 syn) and it was so delicious. A great SP dinner too #slimmingworld #extraeasy #extraeasysp #foodoptimising #bigmac #burgerinabowl #burger #weightloss #healthyfood #losingweight #lowcarb #salad #healthy #slimmingworldmafia #slimmingworldfamily #slimmingworldcommunity
7 days ago by traceysblog I really thought we were coming out the other end today but his scalp is now covered and he suddenly refused to eat and was crying after a spoonful.

Day 5 in Chicken Pox land. #pbloggers #ipbig #chickenpox #three #momlife #makingmemories #toddlersofinstagram #irishblogger #mummyblogger #mummyvlogger
