Consultant wonder if you can help me, the recipe i used form SW world of flavours had 2 eggs in it and my mixture was pretty wet! The recipe i linked to and the one you posted are the same as i used but without the egg? Is that a mistake in the world of flavours book??

I have the World of flavours book somewhere, but can't find it at the mo. However, the recipe I quoted came from the SW website some years ago (probably when the recipe was new). If the book states 2 eggs and the mix is wet, I would try this recipe and see which you prefer - it may be that one egg would be just perfect. Please let us know if you try it, which one you think is best

Consultant I wonder if you can shed any light on this and the soft cheese thing i.e is soft cheese a HEA at all or is it just a HEB on green?
I have seen peoples menus include soft cheese as HEA and am wondering if they are having syns they're not aware of.
{sorry I keep asking this but am thinking of others }

Not an official answer but I suspect it's lacking in calcium to qualify as a HEA. Soft cheeses are not on the list in my book, but may have come in as a HEA since I retired. I don't have access to syns online, but HEs are usually kept up-to-date on there if you want to check

Dear me, I've done it again and answered waaaay after someone else has already done it. Note to self: try to keep up :rotfl:

Thanks for the soft cheese info guys! I was only told yesterday that my dairylea was OK ... but it isn't on EE

So today:

B: Scrambled egg, smoked salmon, 1 wm toast, 1/2 a cantaloup melon

L: Next day chicken curry with rice

Snack: 2 ryvita original with scraping of dairylea light (now synned) (4.5 syns)

T: Next day chicken curry again (DH working so it's got to be eaten!) with SW potato wedges (lots of veg in curry)

Drinks: Water x3, Coffee x1, lemon & ginger tea x1, red wine x1(8.5 syns)

Total Syns: 13

I'm a HEA down now - hopefully that bit of dairylea will have contributed to my calcium intake

Scrap that last post by me guys!

Just checked SW website ...

UPDATE ON DAIRYLEA ... on EE you can have 3 original Dairylea triangles! I can now revise my syns to be 11.5 instead of 13

Every little helps

A good SW (green) day today.
HEA1: milk for coffee
Breakfast: FF yogurt and bran flakes (HEB1)
Lunch: Vegetable chilli, rice and an enormous salad at a lovely cafe in town. It really didn't seem oily, but will allow 12 syns for 2 tablespoons of olive oil (really overestimating it).
Snack: one babybel light 2 syns
Dinner: Leek and spinach cannellloni, HEA2 for the cheese but totally FREE apart from that.
That leaves me a HEB. I could count 1 tablespoon of olive oil from lunch as a HEB, that gives me more syns to play with? Possible chocolate options stirred into some quark? Shall have a think....

I have had a go at making a sort of egg "muffin". I diced potato, sprayed with frylight, roasted in the oven, added diced onion for the last part. Then I whisked up lots of eggs and poured them into a silicon muffin mould I have, added the potato and onion and baked it. I am hoping I can freeze them, then nuke them in the mornings for a totally free breakfast. I haven't tasted them yet but they smell good. I will see tomorrow morning.

sorry I havent popped in for a few weeks , I got a bit down about being unable to loose the weight.
The doctor gave me a blood test and it looks like I have a underactive thyroid - which causes weight gain :eek:.

So need a much stricter eating plan , probally no syns .

Are they not putting you on medication? I have an underactive thyroid and don't have to have a stricter diet, I'm 2lbs away from target and I have syns the same as anyone else, I do have less but thats because I'm near target, not because of my thyroid. Once you're medicated you 'should' be able to lose weight by following the plan 'normally'!!

Hi y'all!!

Thanks again to everyone who gave me advice about joining a group. I think I might go for it, but have decided to commit 100% again in the mean time.
I got weighed this morning and am 12st 7 and a quarter (don't forget the quarter!!). Not impressed as I was over a stone less last summer, so it's back on track and head in gear from now onwards!

Hope you all have a nice evening.

You are a quarter-pound less than I was a year ago (26 jan) when I restarted SW with a determination to Take It Seriously. A few £££ later I am nearly 3 st less at 9 st 12 lbs. I did take the summer off, declaring target at 10.5 st so I could have a "rest" and not pay for a few weeks You can do it!

This sounds much like my version of SW quiche, and I often eat a big slice for breakfast (I like to add some smoked bacon to the mix, and some mushrooms; that way it has all your breakfast ingredients in one item )
