I’m moving this blog

27 Jun

Hello readers,

I’m so sorry that it has been so long since I posted anything here – I’ve been busy being pregnant, having a baby and surviving the first few months of motherhood.

Now that things are starting to fall into a level of insanity than I can deal with, I’ve decided to start a fresh blog. With a fancy domain name and everything. While it won’t be just about dieting and Slimming World, I do hope you’ll join me there!

Here’s a link to the healthy eating category of the new blog. Please consider subscribing – and maybe leave a comment or two. It would be great to hear from you!

Scan bran challenge day 3

3 Oct

Today, my scan bran challenge was pretty simple. I made a batch of fake Ferrero Rochers and nibbled on them throughout the day.

Well, by ‘throughout the day,” I mean over the course of a couple of hours. They’re pretty tasty, and a good excuse for eating Nutella!

Scan bran challenge day 1

2 Oct

Having been a Slimming World member for some time now, I was aware that scan bran was a thing. But for the most part, I was fairly certain that it was an unsavoury thing that best be kept at a distance.

For those who don’t know what scan bran is, it’s a type of Scandinavian crisp bread. It’s basically pure bran, pressed into little cracker-shapes and it looks a lot like cardboard. In fact, on its own, it tastes like cardboard too.

The last couple weeks have felt like a whirlwind – I’m seriously not sure what happened to all those days.

Well, I do know what happened to some of them…

Six-ingredient spaghetti

So, I love spaghetti with a rich tomatoey sauce. It’s such a comfort food for me, and it’s so easy to make.

I love diet food! Spicy chicken with fried rice

27 Feb Spicy chicken, fried rice and kale

As of January, I started working from home permanently. While it has taken me a couple of months to get myself into a groove with this new way of life, I think I’m finally getting the hang of it, but there are a few things I have yet to deal with.
