salt/pepper and mixed herbs,
chopped up tomatos ,
28g cheddar cheese (HEA) - half stirred in and half on top.

Then will bake in the oven this evening and serve with a baked red pepper filled with cous cous.

Hi all:j

Todays menu goes like this ATM:

B: marions rice with ML

Hot lemon (blech)


L: Baked beans on 1 slice toast spread with LC triangle (HEB)

- ML & rice


I'm thinking along the lines of a kedgeree (sp?) - using the fish as a HEB with lg rice, egg etc. I've found some old SW books - including a curry book - so I'm thinking the recipe will come from there.


snacks of grapes, pear, apples

Syns will be:

Another hot lemon

a couple of Halloween jaffa cakes (I LIKE them)

mrsmortenharket - how about a bowl of pasta and a home made sauce? There are some nice ones on the website to try for a change! I like the chilli one myself

No problems posting! No lunch for me - WI tonight at 4.30! :eek:

yorkshire laura - approx 5syns.

SW beef curry and LOTS of SW chips for me tonight. Very tempted by a takeaway pizza & garlic bread but I'll be good!

I'm having to have a day off from SW today as it's my boyfriends birthday and I'm making a slap up meal tonight for him (cheaper than eating out)

I've been snacking on fat free yoghurts and quorn sausages all day to try and limit the damage.

We're having a goats cheese salad to start, fillet steak with chips and peas, then lemon cream pots for dessert, plus I made a chocolate birthday cake and we have a bottle of wine in the fridge.........oh dear........!

oh well it's only once a year and I know my OH is really looking forward to it, fingers crossed I manage to STS this week after that lot!

And does anyone know how many Sins in a Full Bottle of Wine?

Many Thanks

there are 27 syns in a bottle of (red) wine. Think it's about the same for white/rose.

Yes you can save them up all week if you want but SW try to discourage this as it leads to binging after being sacrificial with your treats so they now say stick yto your 5-15 each day and if you have a big night/meal coming up just give yourself a higher syn level for that day, keep counting, stay in control and enjoy!

So you can have 10 syns every day and allow yourself 70 for a Saturday night. it's all about not binging and then throwing it all out the window 'cause you've gone over - it's all about keeping in control and getting 'back to it' the next morning.

Hi,yes you can save your syns through the week and have them over the weekend etc. I think its best you dont do that everyweek and just do it now and again. its easy to not count properly etc and go overboard. I try and stick to 10 syns everyday and save that extra 5 a day for a bottle of wine at the weekdn, I still lose weight this way. A bottle of wine is approx 24 syns, hope this helps.
