Assess your portion control Do you feel stuffed 20 mins after eating? Are you used to that full feeling and that’s the normal? Be honest….i used to eat til i felt I needed to lay down! It’s something i had to learn not to do - and this is actually really helpful particularly when we eat out. We feel we got to get out moneys worth!….

You know when you’ve got a sweet tooth and people say “just cut out biscuits and chocolate” like it’s that easy? 🙄 Because if you’re anything like me, sweet treats haven’t just been a phase… they’ve been part of my life for a long, long time. The problem with sugary foods isn’t just the calories – it’s the energy slump that comes after. One biscuit turns into three, then suddenly the whole packet’s gone. Once you pop, you really can’t stop. So instead of trying to rely on willpower (which never worked for me), I did something different. I started making a few high-protein cakes that still feel like a proper treat. No sugar. No fat. And they keep me full for hours. I’ve been eating these almost every day for the last month and honestly… game changer. I don’t even think about the biscuit tin anymore. This is my go-to. My kids love them too, and especially in winter it feels like I’m having something really stodgy and comforting – except it actually works with my goals instead of against them. And here’s the mad part… this is the only thing I’ve changed in the last month. Same meals, same routine. So I can hand on heart say the drop in weight has come from one simple change – swapping mindless sugary snacks for something that actually fuels me. Proof that fat loss doesn’t come from restriction… it comes from smarter swaps 💛 Grab recipe here https://stan.store/cooharvey80_708/p/get-coach-carlys-apple-cinnamon--sultana-cake

Tried to keep it healthy where I could!

Although I’ve been away. I’ve planned my meals for when I’m home. Plenty of protein ready for the freezer and next weeks meals 💪
