Thanks, so it is less than 1 syn per tablespoon which is fab .
I use it to flavour things quite often, its hardly any protein for one table spoon , cos it works out about 4g of protein ,which is like 3 tomatos.

Found out this morning my butcher does lots of slimming world foods,
picked up chicken burgers that are lovely and thick & sausages
which makes life alot easier for me ,lol.

No, a table spoon would be nearer 3 syns.

exactly, me too!



I can make omelettes in a frying pan for breakfast quite quickly if i have time, but I try not to eat eggs every day as they can be quite pricy especially if i have omelette with 2 eggs that'd be 10 eggs a week, let alone more for weekends! (and if I eat them all during the week there aren't any left for OH at the weekend!)
Plus, i would just get sick of them if i had them every morning.

The other problem i have is that HEBs and HEAs go nicely togather like cheese on toast, ryvita and laughing cow, cereal with milk, etc

It makes it hard to save them for meals/recipes later on in the day, especially if you're doing EE.




that sonds interesting, I might try it. I'm not keen on yoghurt (unless is flavoured - would flavoured yog work here??) I only really use plain /natural yog for cooking but I could try to find one that would work.

I often struggle cos i am not one of those ppl who can have yoghurt and fruit for breakfast, it will not wake me up or give me any enegery for the day. I like an apple or something for elevenses but I often eat all the fruit quickly in the first half of the week and then have none until the next trip to the shops, which means at the end of the week there is none left, making EE even harder!

I think most people use flavoured yogurt, I use natural but only because I make my own so don't have flavoured ones in!

A tablespoon is 15g not 5g, that's a teaspoon. So it's just under 1 syn per teaspoon.

Surely you mean 5ml and 15ml as spoons are measures of volume not weight. To calculate the weight from a spoon measurement you'd need to know the density (ie how much it weights for a certain volume) of it. For water then 5ml (a teaspoon)=5g but for a powder the density is likely to be much lower so a 5ml teaspoon ful would be likely to weigh less than 5g.

Sorry...spot the geeky chemist lol!!!

Oooooh folks

Mr Dizzy has just told me hes taking me on a 3 day mini break to Bruges ....ON MONDAY!!! talk about short notice lmao, hes such a sweetie tho

I'm also voting for the geeks! Which mathematician is your cat named after? I can't have pets cos I'm renting, but I really want a cat called Schrodinger and a dog called Pavlov.
