Bit fed up as wi yesterday and sts, don't know why as been 100% unless it was to do with not having many syns this week [only 36 up til friday and then had none yesterday] today WILL be better. Really wanted to lose that lb for my stone . Will have to be extra careful this week as out on friday for chip/scampy meal then out on saturday with buffet type meal in evening. Wish me luck . The only good thing about this weekend is I fit my skinny jeans yay!!!!!!!!!!!

This is a recipe for Macaroni cheese bake i found on SW website - you could just leave out the macaroni to have a really yummy cauliflower cheese bake instead.

3 Syns on Green and Extra Easy*
9½ Syns on Original*
*Add 6 Syns if not using cheese as a
Healthy Extra

6 spring onions
2 garlic cloves
8 cherry tomatoes
454g/1lb cauliflower
170g/6oz Cheddar cheese
2 eggs
142g/5oz dried macaroni
Fry Light
500g pot very low fat natural yogurt
1 level tsp Dijon mustard
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

1. Prepare the ingredients: trim and thinly slice the spring onions; peel and chop the garlic; halve the tomatoes; break the cauliflower into florets, coarsely grate the cheese and beat the eggs. Boil the cauliflower and cook the macaroni according to the packet instructions. Drain and set aside.
2. Preheat the oven to 220ºC/Gas 7. Spray a pan with Fry Light and cook the spring onions, garlic, tomatoes and cooked cauliflower for
2-3 minutes. Add 100ml/3½fl oz water to the pan and continue to cook for 4-5 minutes until the water has been absorbed. Stir in the pasta, toss to mix well and transfer to a shallow ovenproof dish.
3. Prepare the topping by mixing the yogurt, mustard, cheese and eggs together. Season well, pour over the pasta and cook for 15-20 minutes until bubbling and golden. Remove from the oven, allow to stand for 5 minutes and serve.

Well done to all the losers and try not to lose heart TakeitEazy, hopefully there will be a nice loss waiting for you next week:) Vixie thanks for that macaroni cheese recipe, might try and fit that in somewhere this week.

B: Syn free pancake, Total 0% greek yoghurt, strawberries, banana
L: Strawberries and grapes, hi-fi bar (HEB)
S: 1/2 highlights hot choc sachet (1), skimmed milk (HEA)
Roast beef, SW roast potatoes, sprouts, carrots, cauliflower, broccoli, gravy (2 syns)

A smile for a Sunday : )

With time, women gain weight because we accumulate so much information and wisdom in our heads that when there is no more room, it distributes out to the rest of our bodies. So we aren't heavy, we are enormously cultured, educated and happy. Beginning today, when I look at my butt in the mirror I will think, Good grief......, look how smart I am.
And so the saying goes SMART A**E : )

I believe thats from EITHER a 4 or 12 pack. Sometimes things have different weights dependant on the pack size. Crisps are like that, bought singley they have more crisps in them than multi packs.

So thats each 1

Thanks HopePray - yup, I am a muppet

Other than stir fry vege, I am looking for something to have with Beanfeast Bolognese on a red day - I've decided to have JP as a HE-B.
Sticking with red days this week as my consultant says peeps generally have better losses on red days, and I need to shift a few lbs asap as I can only just fit in my bridesmaid dress with only 5 days to go! I blame the tummy tuck!!! grrrrr
