Hello ladies, how are you all doing today?

WI last night and am the same weight. I don't suppose that's too bad as it wasn't a gain but even so, I've been so good and not lost a thing. Oh well, going to try to eat more superfrees (just been to farm shop and stocked up)

No breakfast again (Bad screamer) because was up early to go to doctors then had to make a trip to get a new car battery and then round to the in laws. Lunch was a bacon and mushroom sandwich and tea tonight is roast chicken with as much veg as I can fit on my plate.

On a side note, have just spent a fiver on a small-ish bag of cherries. Jeez, I probably won't be buying them again! Shocking. This diet is costing me a small fortune!!

I bought 2 smallish punnets in Asda today for £1 each, A fiver does sound excessive, you need to keep those eyes peeled for special offers.

Just browsing Heres a spring roll recipe using filo and they are baked, not fried

Look to be free if you dont use the mango chutney and use frylight instead of normal oil

Liz33y I love hotel chocolat, especially the caramel buttons and salted marble pralines. No idea on the syns, sorry. I try to stick to 2 or 3 and assume it is all of my syns.

Takeiteasy - I am 5' 5" and at 11 stone 3lb fit in a size 10. At 11 st 12 I can fit in my size 10 jeans but with a little overhang (yuck). At under 10 stone I look ill. My dad claims we have very heavy bones - and he has actually been tested for bone density and been told his is unusually high so I can only asume I have inherited this. Psychologically I see 11 stone as very heavy, but actually for my frame it is right. Talking to someone at work today who is the same height as me and is a lttle plump, well she is 10 stone and was shocked at how much I weigh! I look at the scales and get depressed, but look in a mirror and am happy - which is daft. As a result I try not to look at the scales.

Just had a wonder round the garden with 7yo DS who has picked courgettes, raspberries, runner beans and poddy peas that he and I have grown. Dinner is now sorted, and he is very, very proud.

B - muesli, skim milk, apricots HEA and B
L - wholemeal roll with chicken, cherry toms HE
D - red onion and goats cheese starter (is goats cheese a HE?) then runner beans, courgettes and steak
Snacks - apricots, grapes and melon
drinks - tea, water, glass of wine with dinner (?syns - must find my book)

Please, Does anyone know how many syns are in milky bar crispy rolls - I cant find my book!


ETA Screamer Worth keeping an eye out for Picota cherries in a punnet - usually 99p. Always expensive loose sadly. I spent £6 or so in Morrisons yesterday on blueberries, strawberries, apricots, kiwi, grapefruit and oranges which seemed reasonable.

I sometimes help out with the weighing at my group and it always amazes me that some people that look quite....ahem....large actually don't weigh as much as you'd expect and vice versa some who look quite trim are actually a bit on the heavy side. I think it just proves that we are totally unique and what you 'weigh' is not the be all end all.

Is filo free then?

hello I'm back, my IT friend spent FOUR HOURS (and I spent £70 plus a tip) getting rid of the damage done by that virus - it'll be a cold day in hell when I click on another picture on here! What bothered me more than the virus was not being able to complete my online diary - as if I can't keep it on a sheet of paper or summat!

Anyway, well done all, welcome to newbies, and I'm trying to have a day of almost all superfree food.

you'd have to syn the filo, takeit, but if the thing itself is baked not friend that makes it very low syn. (and you could use fewer sheets of filo than they suggest):D

"friend"???? obviously I meant "fried"!

Have had a look on line but it says no product found. If you give me the necessary nutritional values I can work it out for you
