This is my favourite time of year, the daffodils are in full bloom, the first hint of spring green can be spotted in the hedgerows, lambs are making an appearance in the fields and the days are slowly getting longer and dare I say warmer.  My thoughts turn towards the spring and summer days ahead.


So at Slimming World we have started preparing for summer and thinking about the weight we would like to lose before the summer is upon us, putting steps in place to achieve our targets and the foods we can enjoy on our weight loss journey.  We have enjoyed sharing stories, recipes, ideas and tips to help everyone feel ready for the holiday season.


 A brand new recipe book called Food Glorious Food has been launched which contains recipes for traditional favourites from England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales including Welsh Onion cake, faggots and pan haggerty; all deliciously filling and tasty.

We have also seen the launch of a healthy ready meal range exclusively available from Iceland, including chicken tikka, Singapore noodles, sausages, and  also beef in red wine with vegetable crush.  These are all made using good quality fresh ingredients, and includes the recipe on the back of the packs so you can cook it at home for the family.  These meals are ideal for those days we struggle for time and when life is very busy.


We have enjoyed celebrating everyone's weight loss awards as well as our 'Couple of the Year' and our groups 'Greatest Loser 2015' award.

 The favourite part of my job as a Slimming World Consultant is seeing my members achieving their dreams, losing the weight they want to lose and becoming healthier and fitter.  Celebrating their successes in a group and hearing all about their individual journey, makes our groups such a supportive and positive place to be.  

So come along and find out for yourselves and let this summer see a slimmer healthier you.  We meet every Wednesday 9.30am at a Stonehouse Community Centre and 5pm and  at7pm at Eastington Village Hall.
