Favourite Things Friday

I was going to start this post about 1/2 an hour ago but I decided to do a bit of fabric window shopping and have been toying with the idea of making a big fabric purchase, will have to wait for a bit though the CC has had a bit of a workout lately.

My favourite thing this week is my new digital scales.   I killed my previous version by flooding the bench tops a few weeks ago (one of the joys of our lovely kitchen). I have been doing Weight Watchers for a few weeks and have managed to lose about 8kg and it is all down to these wonderful things and my WW app on my phone.

These scales are much better than my old ones, these ones actually change from gms to ml and then imperial measurements.  They  weigh the bowl and then you can reset it so you can measure just the contents which I love.

The one week that I was without the scales I didn't lose a thing so they are helping me keep track of my portions.  The one thing I hated about WW in the past is having to go to the meetings I really can't stand doing that, so the new online version with the iphone app is ideal for me.  I still have a way to go quite a long way in fact but I am already feeling better about myself and I am fitting into clothes that I haven't worn for a while already.  I actually didn't lose any weight this week but I did lose about an 1inch all over so it was still a win.

Head on over to Mrs P to see what everyone's favourite is this week.

Your favourite this week is functional and oh so schmick! I have a set that weighs the bowl and does dual measurements too . Seriously the best thing I ever bought for the kitchen !

I'm doing the happy dance here for your weight loss. 8 kilos is brilliant !Congratulations. I should be trying to lose the 10 kilos extra that plagues me but Im too busy eating chocolate covered licorice and salt and vinegar chips.

I didn't know there was an online WW. I need to lose so much but like you, I don't want to go to the meetings.
