It's been a few weeks since I started back at Slimming World and so far I've lost 6.5lbs! I've tried some lovely recipes this week. Now, if you're like me and the idea of going without chocolate is unthinkable, you need to get quite creative in the kitchen. Friday night I needed something cakey. I wanted a big chocolate fudge cake. Luckily for me there was no such thing in the house (or I quite possibly would have eaten the lot!) So I did a little research and looked at what I had in and came up with this!!
So simple for this you will need:
1 sachet Cadburys chocolate options (2 syns)
1 egg
2 tbsps sweetener
2 or 3 drops of vanilla essence
Put all the ingredients in a medium size mug and whisk well with a fork.
Put into the microwave for two minutes
Put in a bowl and enjoy with fruit, yoghurt or both!!
Its that simple and it really got rid of those cakey cravings I was having Sunday night! Its for this reason I love Slimming World so much!!
As I mentioned its been a few weeks since I rejoined Slimming World and considering I've had my nieces birthday in London, my birthday weekend and a meal out with my mummy friends, I think I'm doing pretty well!
I'm currently 6.5lbs down in four weeks which is amazing considering all I've eaten. I do so well during the week but the weekends let me down, especially when I'm away! I was a little bit gutted I didn't get a shiny last week, I only needed half a pound to get a shiny (a sticker you get every time you lost half a stone) but I'm hopeful for this week. Its one of my February goals to get a shiny!
Thanks to the weather I've not been out running as much as I would have hoped. Im very much a fair weather runner and take no enjoyment in running in the rain! Some people feel a bigger sense of achievement after completing a run in the rain. Not me....I'm a wuss :)
Would love to know if you try this recipe or if you have any other Slimming World cake recipes! I found a Banoffee Pie I might try soon....looks amazing!
Thanks for reading!
Love Mrs B xx
