Polenta is free on green, and if I remember, you do EE, so it would be free?

edit: in case you are on a red day:

Basic/Non Branded Foods Polenta, whole grain 28g dry

Original 5 Syns Green Free

Wasn't hungry tonight but then blew it by having ice cream I really don't know why I ate it.
Don't feel deprived, didn't need it fancied a change I guess???

Today I went to afternoon cinema, but had already made tonights meal last night.

beans, egg, syn free sausage, muller yog & banana

S) took my own to flicks ........... BGTY popcorn & water

L) HM mince beef burgers with HM red pepper soup

D) Pork casserole from SW book, Pots & cabbage

Then a dollop of ice cream, probably about 10 table spoons!!

Why oh why oh why?????????


Tomorrow I have planned in advance which may help me, something I never ever do.

bacon, toms, mushrooms & 1 slice bread, followed by muller yog (bought loads and have to use them up as I am going away next weekend)

L) HM leek & pot soup (made tonight & maybe another slice of bread)


D) Turkey breast, butternut squash roasted, carotts, swede & gravy.
Luckily no more ice cream left so should be ok with that.

Also going flicks again so will probably take another low fat snack.
I was doing sooooo well this week untill that ice cream.
I wonder what makes us get those fancies???

Hi

Want to do my tesco on-line order, can anyone with books let me know branded or tesco convenience type foods that are free on green or original! I know the stewed steak in gravy but 1.75 a tin WHAT!!!!!!!

Any tinned stuff like ravioli, macaroni, bol that kind of thing and also any batchelors rice/pasta (or tesco own brand!) - BUDGET BUDGET!

THANKS in advance guys - weigh in 1 tomorrow at 10am!!!!!!!! arghhhhhhhh - i had a sneaky peak at home and looks like lost 2-3lb (which is really pants for week 1 as usually lose 7lb odd at ww!!!!!!) so a bit disappointed BUT i have not stopped eating lol so hopefully next week my apetite will have dimisished slightly to mean i'm eating less. PLUS up my exercise!

Roll on April as i teach swimming and go on contract in April and get free gold gym membership (worth 400 a year) and 1/2 price creche NO EXCUSES FOR ME!!!!!! I only teach there 2hrs and week and get paid really well too he he. As i will only be working tue and wed from april (3.5hr) i can go gym mon, thu and sun creche for 1 on mon and thu only about £2 for 2 hrs - daughter will be at pre-school and son at reception O I LOVE THE KIDS GROWING UP LOL

Need to go re-work budget and do all my figures as i am going to meetings and will have to find the money! It is my luxury. £10 week. In fact seeing as i stopped smoking 11 days ago :T that £10 is less than the £12 i was spending a week on tobacco and stuff - YAY

Two things -

IIRC, the Tesco discount brand ravioli is free on green - only has 2.5% meat in it.

I think I have just saved you a fiver each week though ... weekly classes are £4.50, your first one was more because you had to pay to join :money:

Might be useful instead of bread... I'm going to try to make one later. You do need japanese/medium grain 'sticky' rice though, but you might be able to recreate it with basmati and a binding agent like egg.

Anyway, looks interesting at least

Hey all!

I've not been around for a while and I've fallen off the wagon big time since my OH and myself were both ill.

We're recovered now though and I'm determined to get back on the wagon. I cut out the shopping list from a copy of SW mag from last year and took it to Tesco this afternoon and now have a fridge and freezer full of SW foods.

How does this sound for an EE day?

Breakfast -
Bowl of Special K and skimmed milk

Lunch -
Jacket potato with prawns and 0% fat yoghurt

Snack -
Mango slices with mullerlight and an options sachet

Dinner -
Chicken salad

Drinks -
Water, tea and diet coke

A great menu Lizzy - just remember to add a few more syns in (never toooo tricky :rotfl: ) as I can only see the options (2) so far.

Make sure that you are eating plenty, you could add potatoes (or rice or pasta) to your chicken salad to bulk it out - and it will still be free!:T

Just been for a Thai banquet - will have to work some to shift that for Thursday's weigh in.

and just to name drop - whilst we were eating none other than Cristiano Ronaldo came to the restaurant

I'll add some spuds to my salad, good idea ange!

As for syns, doesnt Special K have to be counted as syns? or is it a HE now?
