Just returned from WI - 1/2 a lb off :j

Doesn't sound much, but I'm happy enough with it. My Aunt Flow has also come visiting and she's in a particularly unsociable mood... ugh. So I thought I'd gain.

Have planned to have a treat evening tonight - not sure if I'm flexible synning or using up the syns I've left over from this week (36)... whatever


RED day:

B - bacon sandwich (HEb, 0.5 syns ketchup)
L - burger (2 syns), bread bun (HEb), relish (1 syn), cheese slice (2 syns)
D - Pizza Express pizza (15 syns plus HEa) with bacon and chorizo (10g - 1 syn) and salad
P - Either cherries, pavlova nest (2.5 syns) with light aerosol cream (1 syn) or a highlights mousse (3 syns)

Snacks - Hot chocolate (1.5 syns) and a big glass of wine (6 syns)

Total - 32.5 syns :eek:

I read that as in you had 36 syns leftover for the week after WI - so that was the list of things you were going to eat TONIGHT! LOL, thought blimey - that's a blowout all in the space of a few hours, lol.

It tells me when I click on the question mark next to the free allowance question that jars of tomato pasta sauce aren't give a free food allowance! So 18 syns each!

Well I never!That's just plain daft,if you ask me!

It was just that 18 syns for 150g is HUGE! I know they're not great (its a long time since I've used a jar!) but that's unbelievable! :rotfl: Welcome Crap with money.com!

Yeah it is massive - if you're gonna use that amount of syns - you at least want something a bit more interesting than a jar of pasta sauce! My mum's just popped home with a box full of tunnocks snowballs - ah the temptation.......

Well done Mina (and boo hiss at Aunt Flo!):j :j :j :j


Welcome crap with money - we have something apart from SW in common I think!


RE:stupid amoiunt of syns for a bit of tomato sauce,sometimes SW is just mental!How can you be allowed unlimited additives and chemicals in FREE mugshots,pasta n sauce,etc but not be allowed to use a tomato based sauce as a free food allowance for something you are going to syn,so naturally eating less of,IYSWIM?!?I know which one I consider healthier (and any nutritionist would too)......:mad:

My memory isn't so good... I might have mentioned this before... but Napolina do lovely jars of chrushed tomatoes with garlic, chilli, peppers and basil in that taste like a pasta sauce but are free as there's no added salt, sugar or gunk. Morrisons sell them - much MUCH nicer than the usual passatta with added herbs or whatever.

As would I Kelly! Ah, well one day it might be free :rotfl:
