Leaving Las Vegas

A week in Vegas (for a conference!) and some terrible jet-leg has turned me into a serious slacker on the blogging front. So definitely time to complete some of my half-finished drafts!

Travel and being away from home has also meant falling off the wagon on the food front. I'm going home in a minute to take measurements, get on the scales, and take a 'before' photo in my bikini (aaaagggghhh).

Tomorrow is the first day of my 'Evolution Challenge' - as well as returning to my fab plant-based recipes I'm also going to be using the Evolution range from Arbonne - vegan, gluten-free supplements which support healthy weight loss. As a consultant I'm a fan of all their products but I'm excited about using these and having a personal testimony. I have a minimum of 2.5 stone to lose so it's quite a challenge but I'm committed to being patient and doing it gradually.

I'm going to have a read of some great cookbooks tonight to get back in the right mindset and do some planning for the rest of the week. Those pictured below are my current favourites and I thoroughly recommend them all for their good advice, imaginative ideas and delightful approach to food, cooking and eating.

Think I must also face the fact that cutting out booze is going to be key....but can I actually face a dry 90 days?!
