I do quite a lot of cycling and walking and seem to be losing inches off my legs and behind but I never seem to lose any from my tummy.

Please don't say gyms ... I hate gyms. I much prefer being in the fresh air. I do have one of those big exercise balls which I inflated and then never used and it is covered in dust in the shed I think ...... would that help target the tum?

If not that, anything else? I do swim but our nearest pool is some distance away and not that nice to be honest.

Crunches and leg raises will sort out your upper and lower tum:D I really need to get doing some of these myself:cool:

Right so multipack crisps and I pinched maybe 5th of the bag , so I will call that 1.5 The weetos I had about 5-8g, so call that 5th again and 1.5(to be on the safe side!)

It just shows though, it is so easy to add extra syns without even thinking:o

I will go back and update my post now with the extra syns.

and that's why the consultants advise us to aim for about 10 syns, because it's easy to add extra syns without thinking (and equally easy to underestimate the syns you are aware of ). Aiming for ten means many of us are having 15 without realising it; whereas if you do have 15 obvious syns you might well be having 20 per day and baffled as to why the weight is static

Hello everyone, good luck to those weighing-in tonight, I wish we could all weigh on a Friday rather than right after the weekend

Reporting in on the (version of) kedgeree from the EE cookbook. It's very nice. Not the best meal ever but certainly very nice. However, I varied the recipe a lot by
Using smoked haddock instead of smoked salmon
Using uncooked rice and lentils eg cooking from scratch
Adding some peas, also courgette and pepper to increase the superfree.
Ignored the bit about a boiled egg cos I don't think it would have re-heated well in the work microwave

Because I only used half a fillet of haddock I have decided to count today as green and have now added some little cubes of blue cheese to my reheated pickled onion soup for supper .... yum yum :j

**Sobs** ½lb on - I know it doesn't sound much but I have been faithfully on plan, had curry twice this week made with onions, peppers mushrooms and tinned tomatoes, mushy peas, baked beans, butter beans and cannellini beans and curry spices:eek: and also home made vegetable soup (not as potent as the dyno rod ) and didn't even use all my syns!

Can anyone tell me which stir fry sauces have the lowest syn values? I love stir frys but like to have a little bit more than soy sauce in them sometimes!

Sorry to hear you've put on and don't know why What about posting a food diary on here this week so we can give you any ideas or pointers?

I got over my dilemma of what cheese sauce to use by not having that dish at all :rotfl: Made some dyno soup. Effects were almost instant! :eek: and contunious

So all in all:
Boiled eggs
Banana
pasta, houmus, peas (b)
veg chilli (hea cheese)
dyno soup with other hea cheese
I had an alpen light bar and 1/2 healthy B and forgot about the other one mind you, with dyno and the chilli I don't think I'll be short of fibre :rotfl:
3.5 syns for magical elf
...and after all that I'm not feeling very bothered about having the curley wurley

Crikey, a day ending on 3.5 syns?! :eek: Coulda' had that blasted packet of cheese sauce!

Good luck with wi's and well done losers. Hugs to those that need them :A
