Slimming World - Extra Easy weight loss!!

got-it-spend-it

Well done on the loss Fairyshazza.

Some yummy sounding menus on here today. I am well and truly back on plan after a week off. Had a quick sneaky weigh in this morning and it looks like 3lb on, but I'm pretty sure that is mostly fluid and will come off straight away with some healthy eating and drinking lots of water.

EE day for me as I'm having fish for tea. Well it is Friday .

B-Mushrooms, tomatoes, baked beans, 2 x wm bread from a small loaf (HEB)

L-Pickled onion soup, LF yogurt, Pear, Banana

D-HM Fishcakes, Asparagus, Broccoli, Cauliflower, Tbsp LF Mayo (2.5 syns), Strawberries, Raspberries

S- Skinny Latte (HEA), Kelloggs Fibre Plus Bar (5.5)

=8 syns.

I really need to do some exercise today but I feel really bleurgh so not sure whether I will. Will try and get out for a run later as I'm sure that would make me feel better.

Hi all,

Not been on for a while, had a few birthdays etc and just recently I've been a bit down in the dumps. Not been feeling right for the past few months, and just recently had a rash down my legs that wasn't shifting with tablets. Anyway, had blood tests yesterday for various things including thyroid. Just been looking on internet and it affects weight. If it is that it will be a relief in a way because whatever I've been doing the weight isn't shifting, its been creeping up.

Off to have a look through the thread, theres a lot to catch up on!

I bought some scan bran which I ate this morning. My brain wanted to eat it but my mouth did not want to swallow, lol, I just had some water with it. If I have a couple a day I could use it as 1 syn but how many make a HeB? I would probably consider it a waste of them but I have heard that they really help with the loss.

Hope everyone is well!

We were given this Scan Bran Cake recipe the other day
9 1/2syns in total

28g porridge oats (or weetabix)
5 scan bran
1tbsp dark treacle
3tbsp artificial sweetener
3 beaten eggs
2tbsp cinnamon

1 break the scan bran into small pieces then sprinkle on hot water. Leave for a few min, then break up with a fork, until the scan bran resembles breadcrumbs (use extra hot water if necessary) Stir in the porridge oats, treacle, cinnamon and sweetener. Mix in eggs and stir well.
2. Line a loaf tin with foil and spray with fry light, bake 25-30 min in a medium oven (190C) or place in a microwavable container and microwave on high for 5min.
(You could add carrots for a different Carrot Cake)

We were given small tasters of the cake and I liked it
