    Here is my menu

    B: 2 x Alpen light (HEB)

    S: Apple

    L: Tin of Spaghetti Hoops
    Packet of French Fries (are they still 5 syns?)

    S: Activia fat free (Hoping its still free!)

    D: Tomato Pasta n Sauce

    If i get hungry I also have a mug shot

    Woohoo I am super excited! did lighter life last year and lost 6 stone but 2 has gone back on again - looking forwards to losing weight the healthy way this time

    Hiya and welcome to the thread! What an amazing weight loss - that 2 stone will be off in no time! I weigh in on a Thursday too!:)

    Walkers French Fries are 4 syns if they are a 19g bag or 4.5 syns if they are a 22g bag. As far as I'm aware Activia fat free yogurts are free from syns.

    Some of the Mug Shotz have syn values - I know the Tomato and Herb one is free of syns and the Creamy cheese one is 2 syns. Tried to look up the rest of it on the SW website but it wouldn't recognise them.:(

    Good luck for WI. I'm sure you will be fine. I suffer with that problem too and why does it always occur on the day you are going to get weighed!:(

    What an amazing achievement. Well done:T I'm new to this (hence checking my book regularly) so I think your menu looks a bit low on fruit/veg (unless you have loads lurking in your pasta sauce).

    I just had to phone the syn hotline for something else I needed the syn value for and I went onto Tesco's website as it gives the nutritional information for the skinny cow skinny dipper mini ice cream lollies - choc and caramel and they said they work out at 3.5 syns a lolly - still a great find tho - thank you!:beer:

    Thanks consultant, I came back on here to find the dyno rod soup as I have great need of :o

    I have been using lactulose :o which is a sugar derivative of some sort and not counting it in my syns but it probably should be included.

    Today I had ready brek and milk for breakfast .Still haven't had my ryvita!

    coffee with 2 tsps coffee mate,I can't find how many syns. Can anyone help please?

    It was a gift so I don't like to waste it:)

    I've taken lactulose in the past and like you was very concerned that it might have a syn value as it tastes so sugary. It was a few years' back that I asked the syn hotline and they said the beneficiary effect of taking it would outweigh any syn value it might have.

    Good morning all
    Hello to the newbies and well done to those with losses :j

    Another overcaast drizzly day here -would be nice to be able to say something else sigh.gif
    Anyhoo -I have tonights dinner marinading in the fridge so I thought I would post on here before I get on...



    So then -today is a red day... and looks like this:-
    • 250ml semi (A)
    • Thai tuna steak (1.5)
    • steamed savoy cabbage
    • sf jelly and berries (1)
    • 1/2 pot activia (1.25)
    • apple
    • sticky ginger pork (3)
    • stir fried:-
    • spring onions
    • celery
    • carrots
    • peppers
    • broccoli
    • sugar snaps
    • beansprouts *if I can get any tonight*
    • sf jelly with berries (1)
    • 1/2 activia (1.25)
    Now that takes me to 9syns but only 1A used confused.gif -so I will try and figure out using my 2 Bs - I guess I could shove some frozen peas in my stir-fry to use 1 up biggrin.gif
    I just didn't fancy brekkie - * week has kicked in and I have to be careful as for some reason it always makes me feel like I have just finished eating so I don't eat enough :eek:I guess it is better than it making me crave junk tongue.gif
    Anyway -I had better get off for now -no doubt I will be back later..
    Have a lovely day all.....
