Good point. I think I do it partly from habit and I don't trust it to taste as good. I think the veg is going to end up very dry. I am going to force myself to use fry light tonight when I roast the tomatoes for the pizza and see. As tomatoes have quite a lot of liquid I think it should work.

I just spray it at the start then when I turn them I give them another good spray.....the same as when I do chips or roasties (Im definateley not 'tight' with the sprays) lol

thanks - damn they are so high syn they are so yummy. And at the mo all the regular bags have 33% extra which means 33% more syns!!

cant you just have part of a bag and save some in the fridge for the next day? I do this with my dairymilk.....as long as I get that 'chocolate hit' - it doesnt need to be the whole big family bar like it used to take to satisfy my craving

Just made up my dinner for tonight - i'm working so need to take it with me. It looks yummy, just want to check its all syn free:D

Leftover wholegrain rice, cucumber, pepper, jalapenos, beetroot, hb egg and a little of the vinegar from the beetroot jar drizzled over the top for some extra flavour.

Does anyone know how much low fat Mozzarella can be used as a HEa? I have checked online but can only seem to find the full fat mozzarella listed at 42g, was hoping I could have more if it is low fat!! I'm just writing my food plan for the week to help keep me in check over bank holiday

I can't see low fat Mozzarella listed either . It's already pretty low fat, so I don't know if you should have twice the amount or not - perhaps have just a little more than the 42g, say 50g, as they can't have taken much fat out if there's not much in there to start with, iyswim.

Ah i hadn't realised it was already quite LF, will just get normal and syn any more that I use to be on the safe side. I don't normally like LF cheese anyway so at least I can buy the nice buffalo mozz stuff mmmmm! Thanks!

Morning all

It has been persistantly persisting it down for the last couple of days -so no walk for me today -I was considering on going to the Gym again, but hubby pointed out that it is "the OCs PT session" today -so i will give it a miss being surrounded by hods of sweaty squaddies is something I can live without
Thanks for that info DizzyK :Dand well done on your loss too :T


Anyhow -todays red meal plan is looking like being :-

• melon
• big salad
• gherkins
• beetroot
• ham
• 2 baby bel goats cheese (A)
• 3 crispy breads (4.5)
• melon
• peach
• activia lemon (2.5)
• salmon fillet
• hm ratatouille
• broccoli
• 250ml semi (A)
• 1tsp camp (0.5)
• 1 fibre plus (B)
• activia peach (2.5)

So that is 2A+1B and 10 syns accounted for..
I decided to syn the crispbreads (they were really filling -so 2 will do next time) to be on the safe side which means I have a heB left for something else later
So far this week I have managed 2 x 1hr sessions at the gym, 1hr on the wii and a 3hr walk around the golf course (played 8 holes too) and hopefully if it is dry enough tomorrow I will get another walk around the golf course in...so pinkies crossed that the scales are kind to me on Sunday


Niandra-when I use light mozarella/feta I only have the same amount as the full fat one for a heA
Lucy-Lastic -I would rather pay 0.5syn for 1/4tsp oil to roast veggies or make wedges than use spray oil. I prefer the taste, olive oils are good for me and I don't like the sticky film they used to leave on my bakeware :rotfl:... Im usually tight fisted with my syns -but oil is one place I don't mind using them on!

Right I will get off -Have a great day everyone and keep up the great work...
SarJSmith -Pm'd you back

The low fat stuff can be quite watery too. I much prefer the full fat mozarella

Re frylite-I used it when losing majority of my weight but when I was near target and got to last of frylite I washed bottle and filled with olive oil. I don't often use all my syns so don't mind using 2 for my spray. I think its better for me than that white stuff
