The WW Foodie

I’m all about the even keel at the moment. My weight loss, over the last couple of months, has been pretty small. But, but, but. I am, a...

When I returned from my jaunting at the weekend I was met by the sad sight of two dead bananas in the fruit bowl. Not just on the turn, or ...

The sky over Leeds may be as grey as grey can be this morning, but at least, if last weekend proved to be the last of the summer proper, I...

Sometimes, when we’re dining out, D and I like to play a guessing game whereby we try and predict what the other will order. Yes, I know wh...

Our beloved J Baker’s is closed. We thought that it had looked quiet lately. But still, this was unexpected and rather sad. If ever ...

I was browsing a couple of new food blogs the other day and was struck by the utter beauty of the accompanying photography.  Damn these peop...

I have been known to “hang out” (get me with the modern parlance) on the WW message boards from time to time. Weight loss – especially when...

July. How did it get to be July? Just two more months and we reach the point of the calendar at which D and I said that we would make a fi...

Whatever the lovely Peridot may believe, J Baker's superlative restaurant in York does open occasionally.  Their opening hours do look...

We passed this very aptly named shop while wandering the streets of Stirling last week:     Amusingly named retail outlets aside, Sti...

A fairly normal routine for me this week.  I'll be freezer diving for the main constituents of most of these meals, so not an awful lo...

Yesterday was rather like the curate's egg.  There was good news (you passed your exam!  You can go ahead and destroy those stupid index...

First, a huge thank you for all those crossed fingers, toes and eyes - I passed my latest exam.  So that is two modules down, umpteen to go ...

I knew very little about Glasgow prior to visiting it.  Just that it was "Not Edinburgh".  I still don't feel like I know ver...

But not today.  Today I lost another 2.5lbs.  I should add that I successfully managed to sleep through my official weigh in - a permanent S...

Well, I said in my last post that I needed to get back into meal planning, so here we go.  A tentative toe in the water.  I'm please...

It’s amazing what a spell of good weather will do to the spirits. Or maybe it is that, finally, after nine months of wound licking and gene...

I can't pretend that this post contains a recipe that is remotely WW or other diet friendly.  It is, however, cake and very good cake at...

You must forgive me if I'm a little quiet over the next few weeks - I have an exam coming up which necessitates a lot of wandering aroun...

I think I may be ready to bestow the accolade of My Favourite Bar in Leeds.  And, the thing is, it’s not even in Leeds but is tucked away i...

No words required!

I want to start this by saying: this is not intended to be a sad post, a "poor me" post, a post to make my loved ones concerned. I...

I had such a proud moment last weekend.   Well, two if you count the rather pathetic pride I took in going for a walk .   Let’s not shal...

Oh, how I wished that I was one of those lucky souls who enjoyed exercising.  I think I've had phases of tolerating it to the extent t...

Being fat is a very first world problem. There is something uncomfortably, horribly wrong about a world where resources are spread so uneve...
