Scan bran challenge day 4

I wasn’t really looking forward to scan branning it up on a Saturday, so I decided to make things as simple as I could on myself. I made a batch of basic scan bran cake mix, cooked it in a silicone muffin tray and munched on the little cakes throughout the day whenever I was feeling a bit peckish.

Maybe it’s the cooler weather or the leaves changing colours on the trees – what ever it is, I’ve been thinking about apple crumble lately. So, I decided to try to see if I could make a reasonable alternative that was Slimming World friendly and that got me to eat my scan bran for the day.

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

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.

Catch-up

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…

I’m baaa-aack

Oooooohhhhh. I’m soooo embarassed! It has been months since I posted to this blog, and I haven’t really gotten anywhere with my weight loss journey since I stopped posting.

Week 7 weigh in

This week, I was happy to see another two-pound loss!

Week 6 weigh-in

Just a quick note to say I lost another 1.5 pounds this week!

Week 5 weigh-in

First, I want to apologise for not posting for the last couple weeks. My 9-5 job has been keeping me way busier than I would like, which unfortunately means a lot of working late and not wanting to type another word once I’m done for the night.

Week two weigh in

I had my second weigh in last night, which was a 1.5 pound loss. I was quite happy with that, as my home scales hadn’t been so generous!
