Hiya everyone. Bit of a daft question, but this disc I have got says very low fat natural cottage cheese is free on red and green days, but is it free on EE as I don`t have a list of free foods for EE. Is Morrisons eat smart natural cottage cheese and Aldi`s Be light low fat cottage cheese counted as very low fat or not ?
Also can anyone tell me if Morrisons original crispbread (red packet, 39 calories per slice) can be counted as a HE, if so how many and if not, how many syns are they ?
I`m all confused today, as I had three with cottage cheese on last night (got the nibbles) and as I only had 2 slices of the WW brown danish out of the 3 I was allowed as my HE, I wondered if 1 slice of the crispbread would count as my third slice of bread or not ? I am now totally baffled as to how much I synned
ANY help would be really, really appreciated

Dizzy-No pictures I promise, you filthy thing!
Mrs mcawber-Yeah I eat a lot of fruit, veg and fibre stuff so could be that too.
I lost a 1.5! Really hungry now so kept some Alpen lights in bag that I pretty much hoovered as soon as I came off the scales!!
Catsmrs-I eat a lot too, pretty much 3 full meals a day and snacks on fruit in between, sometimes even syns. I still lose an average of 1-1.5 a week xx

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE SHARE THE RECIPE MRS M!!! SOUNDS NOM NOM NOM NOM!!
Geez its windy here today... i our flatulence is definately having an affect on the weather....
... Talking of flatulence... i have a severe case of trumpet trousers - i haven't even had Dyno Rod soup!
Today is EE
B (at 11am as had to have a blood test) Banana + bottle of water followed by 1 Shredded Wheat (+ ryvita = HEB - These are in my FO book (from 2009) - can someone check whether these are still a heb??) 2 tsps of choc spread (3) and tsp of peanut butter (2.5) on the ryvita - MY GOD 5.5 syns of yum!! Cup of tea (milk = HEA)
L - Bacon, eggs, mushrooms and tinned spaghetti
D - EDITED - Had a bit of a dip and came over really really really tired. Sister offered to bring me in food on her way in from work - i opted for a grilled chicken kebab from our local kebab house. I know that they use chicken breast and they don't add any oil to their grill, i had loads and loads of salad and a warmed pitta (half of which i gave to my mum lol)
Syns so far = 5.5 + kebab synsAll hail to the sale!!!!!! :beer:

DizzyK - is that right? If you mash strawberries you have to syn them. That's total tut as far as I can see. So long as you don't add anything to them or cook them they remain fresh strawberries. By mashing them you do nothing but change the cell structure of the fruit which would have no impact on its calorific value. Juicing is different because you remove the fibre so I understand that but mashing. That's a step too far! I say keep your syns.Well behaved women rarely make history.0
