I work Ft and and am a single mum too so just have no time (or appetie) for sausages, eggs etc in the morning but I do NEED a big breakfast. I've been having a double portion of cereal for breakfast but that means I either have to stay off the extra easy (because it would need 2 HEBs) or use up some of my sins.
I have a portion of fruit with my cereal (summer fruits, melon or banana usually) but I have it with fat free yogurt instead of milk. It saves a HE, is syn free, and is much more filling than milk. If you have a sweet tooth you could have a Muller Light instead of natural yog.
Hope this helps.A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

Food today has been
B - weetabix [bs], milk [a], coffee
L/T - noodles, 3 quorn burgers [1.5 syns], mushrooms, tomatoes, beans, muller.
Snacks - oaty bar [3.5 syns], 1 fizzy milk bottle [.5 syn], 25g crisps [6.5 syns]
Syns - 12
I have 3 weetabix everyday as 2 aren't enough to fill me up. I either have them as both b's or 1 b and 3.5 syns so I can have a fibre plus for the other b. I can't be arsed to weigh stuff especially 1st thing in the morning when I'm running round like a blue arsed fly so weetabix does it for me :rotfl:Its not what you do but the way that you do it, thats what get results :T

I made this last night. Marinated chicken in milk with chopped garlic. Mixed some ground rice crispies, flour, paprika, chilli powder, salt & pepper, coated chicken in it & oven baked for around 20 mins. I reckon there was only around 2 syns per large breast, and that's probably an over estimate. Was stunned to see it smelt & looked like the real thing :T. Tasted great, but not quite the same - it was missing the deep fried taste
, will definitely be making again
. Better than the Birds Eye or any supermarket one by a long way.
Edit to say - I'm not blowing my own trumpet, I'm not a great cook, so stunned at how easy & good it was

Eek! Please don't publish the password on a public forum, we're not supposed to share it - Slimming World has contacted forums such as Minimins about this before. Fair enough if you know someone is a regular paying member but it's probably best just to PM it.deano23285 wrote: »password is *****i believeMortgage: [STRIKE]08/13 £28,896.49[/STRIKE] 01/18 £00
