  • Thanks Ali - I'm going to try to be good again this week in case there is a delayed reaction and last weeks effort will maybe show up at the next WI. I'm ever hopeful.

    Someone said to me last night, "it's often more difficult when you get nearer target". I replied "I have 4 stone to go yet" - and she looked surprised, so I guess I don't look as fat/heavy as I am. Cheered me up a bit anyway!

    Wi last night and stayed the same, not happy as had lots of salads and soups this past week after my performance of the other week. Even though i've not done very well of late i'm still going to keep going as we were formally told at work yesterday that our jobs are at risk, I think i have about a year before i have to start applying for my own post again or other jobs so i want to lose 10st by then. No biggie lol!!
    Been given some SAS logs from the leader at club last night so filling them in.
  • Hi,

    I am going for a meal tonight at Pizza Expres.

    I have looked on lifeline online and they don't show everything thats on the menu.

    Could somebody please tell me what I can have thats lowest in Syns?

    Many Thanks - Amy (New starter)
  • After doing SW on and off on my own for a year or so I've bit the bullet today and joined a group. I nearly walked out of the queue as I was so nervos but they all seem really nice.
    Had a chat with the consultant and they seem to be pushing EE, she'd ike me to try that this week so that should be interesting. Meeting some of the girls from work later for a carvery but think I've got it all worked out what I can have.

  • hey, had a week off plan last week as everything went mad! had a job interview, an induction, a weekend trip which was catered, 2 nights out including meals both nights, a night out on the trip and a project deadline ALL in the same week, haha. So the diet went out of the window, but am back on plan now :D

    Went food shopping today, so i'm trying to plan meals for the week. I also have a week off thankfully after all this madness so lots of time for cooking and such.

    I've got stuff for a chicken stir fry, which should be free on EE as I don't use any sauce or anything. Still need to buy the veg for it though, but i'll get that later. I also bought some Weight Watchers Lasagne's as the 2 for £3 offer on mince at Sains has gone and the more expensive ones are WAYYY too big for just two of us. And the b.f asked for something more 'normal' this week :rotfl:so 5.5 syns for them. Going to have some jacket potatoes this week also, and will have to have a think for other stuff. Oh, 6 packs of Muller Lights are half price at sainsburys BTW so it's £1.64 each.

    I also got some Weight Watchers tomato and basil chicken, and was extremely confused as there were two different syn values;

    WW Chicken in Tomato & Basil Sauce, frozen 320g pack;
    RED - 6.5 GREEN - 11.5

    WW Chicken in Tomato & Basil with Potato Wedges, frozen 330g pack; RED - 7 GREEN - 5.5

    on the box it didn't say it had potato wedges in it so I was gutted that I bought something relatavely high in syns. But then I opened the box and low and behold! they had wedges in them?!?! I was very confused..... yet happy I had miraculously bought the lower syned ones :rotfl: even though they have chicken in they are lower on green too.

    Also I have some leftover stuff in the cupboard and wondered if someone could check the syn values for me please?

    Sainsburys Spring Vegetable Soup - 400g can
    Sainsburys BGTY Mild Chicken Curry - less than 3% fat - 400g can
    Sainsburys Lean minced beef & onions with gravy - 198g can

    TIA :p

    I accidently bought the chicken curry as I thought it was just a curry sauce and then realised that it had chicken in it too when I got home. I also was wondering if there are any syns in the premade chilled mash from sainsburys, its £1 for the tub. Could come in handy when I can't be bothered to cook potatoes.

    Sorry for the mahhusive post!! :p

    Today's menu; not sure what day i'm having until I decide what to have for tea

    Breakfast
    • 2 slices of WW wholemeal bread (HEB
    • scrambled eggs
    • 2 slices of bacon medallions
    Lunch - Possibly a jacket potato, or a ham salad.
    Tea - will decide when the b.f gets home.
