About

Lee Timms is a multifaceted creator who thrives at the intersection of storytelling, design and lifestyle wisdom. Known publicly as the author of the financial-crime-thriller series Bales & Co, which introduces forensic accountant Peter “Bales” Bailey and a cast of colourful characters in a high-stakes comedy-crime world, Lee brings the same clarity, wit and structural discipline to his health-and-habit brand, Scrummy.


Why Lee does what he does

With a background in marketing and branding, Lee has spent years translating big ideas into accessible visuals and narratives. That experience now informs Scrummy’s mission: to cut through gimmicks, to make healthy eating, habits and lifestyle improvements genuinely understandable and enjoyable.


What you’ll find him sharing

  • Insightful, no-nonsense articles on food, nutrition habits and sustainable lifestyle shifts.

  • Real-life projects and experiments—because Lee walks the talk (and yes, his Monday fish-meal, Tuesday gnocchi dinner-party, Wednesday black-bean-bowl plan is very real).

  • A creative voice that bridges authenticity with a dash of narrative flair (after all, he does write thrillers for fun).


A little more about Lee

  • He is building Scrummy alongside his writing career, mindful of creating a brand that complements rather than competes with his fiction work.

  • He spends half his life simplifying food habits and the other half complicating fictional financial crimes. Balance.

  • A keen advocate of making habits stick, Lee believes that systems beat motivation, design supports behaviour change, and humour keeps it all sustainable.


Join the journey

Whether you’re here for recipe inspiration, habit design or lifestyle strategy, Lee invites you to explore Scrummy, lean into the “making eating make sense again” ethos, and build a life that’s both scrummy and smart.


Fun fact: When not crafting narrative arcs, Lee says he watches Northampton Town (The Cobblers) “for relaxation,” which is a generous way of describing ninety minutes of near-cardiac events.

Why You’re Always Hungry (And It’s Not Your Fault)
Ever feel like you just ate … and yet your stomach is already planning its next complaint letter? Good news: it’s probably not lack of discipline. Hunger isn’t a character flaw. It’s biology doing its job — sometimes a little too enthusiastically. Let’s break down the real reasons you’re hungry all the time — and what actually helps. 1. You’re Not Eating Enough (Yes, Really) Ironically, chronic hunger often happens when people try to eat less . If meals are tiny, low-calorie, or mostly...

How to Stop Obsessing Over Food (Without Fighting Yourself)
Food obsession doesn’t start because you love food too much.It usually starts because you’ve been told you shouldn’t. Rules. Restrictions. “Good” foods. “Bad” foods. Before you know it, eating becomes maths, morality, and mild panic instead of… lunch. Here’s how to step off the hamster wheel and actually feel normal around food again. 1. Stop Calling Foods “Good” or “Bad” When food gets moral labels, your brain treats eating like a test. And humans don’t relax during tests — they obsess....

Diets With No Carbs: Smart Strategy or Nutritional Dead End?
Carbs have been blamed for everything from belly fat to brain fog to the downfall of civilisation. Somewhere along the way, “cut carbs” became shorthand for “get healthy.” But like most nutrition trends, the truth is far less dramatic — and far more useful. Let’s break down what no-carb diets really do, who they help, who they don’t, and whether cutting out bread forever is actually worth it. First — What Counts as “No Carbs”? Technically, a true zero-carb diet is almost impossible unless...
