:hello: Hi and welcome Breadaddict! I lose a ton of weight when I cut bread out totally (and I used to eat half a loaf a day) - so stop buying it If you haven't got it in then you can't eat it. Failing that keep it in the freezer - if your family need it they have to take out a slice in advance. If you 'need' it then it's not worth waiting for it to defrost

Marion - sit him down and talk to him - travelling is one of the most wonderful and mind opening things he can do. I don't know how old he is but it's much better to say to a future employer you spent a month broadening your horizons and learning new things & new languages then having to tell them you vegged for a month at your gran's I would be the first to convince anyone to go travelling after I did mine 8 years ago!

Lunch is about to be bread toasties (got to finish the bread before I go away as I didn't put it in the freezer as normal!) Breadaddict - I never take my own advice :rotfl:

:jHi all think a GREEN day but not sure?

Well today so far has been

B - summer porridge with ML & banana (1HEB?)

L - left over HM lentil & tom soup, 1/2 a small wmeal roll

D - looks like it might be an Indian meal (whoops!)

I will have plain bioled rice but what's the best thing to have? Last time I had a chicken in a tom sauce, it's a nice place & no oil on the top of the dishes:eek: I won't have a starter this time, but did have chicken tikka last time. And how many syns per poppadum???

In case anyone likes Muller Corners and can't have them because of the syns, my Mum picked up some Asda 'split pot' yoghurts on offer 6 for 99p (in a pack) I think, and I've just found out they're free!
I'm actually wondering if you can use the fruity bit as free jam :rotfl:

I'm baffled how these can be free! I thought fruit was synned if not in it's original form?

Take the Weight Watchers fromage frais layers as an example, fat free fromage frais with a tiny bit of fruit compote, and it's half a syn!
If they are free, that's wicked. My other half occassionally gets them and they look really fruity, but I'm a bit wary :huh:

There is no raspberry now and the pots are 175g - I wonder if these are different ones? I'll have a look in my directory in a sec!

UPDATE : Nothing in the directory and I don't have access to Syns online!

Awww, well done you! Sometimes, when you least expect it, you get a loss that gives you a real boost! Keep up the good work!

So just don't eat them then 4lison!

Macmanlyn - I don't think you can pay by card but they do take cheques for the countdowns. Other than that it's cash.

Well done save up ya pennies - that's a brilliant target! Can't wait to get that far! :j

It was only an enquiry! I won't bother asking next time!

Skint_Catt

It wasn't an enquiry - I've said I've looked them up online - about all I can do - and it says they're free and you're arguing against it. I don't know WHY they're free, or HOW but SW says they are!
