I rejoined my class again last week and have lost 2lbs today.
Just been plodding along since the new year and wasted over 2 month, could kick myself.
I have loads of sw recipes using scan bran, if anyone wants me to post them I will, they are supposed to be really good for losses..
Well done Paula for taking the plunge and losing 2lbs. We had recipes at class this week for scan bran so they must be pushing it. Apparantly this dooes speed up the weight loss so I am going to have a go at making the carrot cake with it.
Someone made one and brought it along and it was very nice, tasted like bread pudding.
Shirley I liked the look of the carrot cake one and may try it this weekend.
Welcome back Paula and well done on your 2lbs. Can you post the carrot cake scan bran recipe please. Sounds great.
Well I can't believe that I had a maintain this week as I was expecting 3 or 4 lbs on. Phew[grin]
The black tie functions are down to 2/3 per week from next week so hopefully can do serious SW in between.
Good luck tonight Janice if you weigh in.

Hi all,
due to work commitments I have been unable to log on for a few days and was unable to attend SW on Thursday.
Well done Sandra for maintaining your weight.[clap][clap]
Hi Paula, welcome back and congratulations on your 2 1b weight loss.[clap][clap]
The recipes look great Paula, will have to give them ago when I have some free time.
Next week I will be working four days, so won't be around much, but will be definitely back to normal the following week.
Have a good weekend.[msnsmile2]

Hi Martine and welcome to the club. I made the carrot cake at the week-end and even got hubby to eat it.
Scan bran is like ryvita but not very nice to eat on it's own but ok crushed up in the recipes. If you are not a member of slimming world you can buy it in health food shops. 8 crispbreads to a pack.
I am going to make the chocolate cake this week so will let you all know what it's like.
Only lost 1/2lb this week so must try harder
This weeks password is beans
Well done Shirley on your 1/2lb weight loss.[clap][clap]
Hi Martine, welcome to ov slimming club.[msnsmile2]
I'm off today, so lots of catching up to do.
I won't be able to attend SW tomorrow as I will be working tomorrow. Next week I will only be working one day so should be back to normal.
I hope everyone is ok.
