I was expecting them to be SS but they're just normal SFs.

With the amount I had yesterday they were super speedy this morning! :eek:

You have to make the most of them though as the Victoria Plum season is so short and they are just the best ever tasting

Great losses this week folks - onwards and downwards!

WI for me today - after last weekends 'hog fest' in Scotland I wasn't expecting anything great but was overjoyed at getting

- Half a pound !

Not startling but better than DH who went up a pound :rotfl:

I put it down to the plums;)

Did you have the rest of your HEAs? teas/coffees? 'Officially' if you don't have all your HEs you should syn the bit you have had.



Of course they are. I was expecting them to be SS but they're just normal SFs.

Had delicious free chicken curry tonight. A new WW (:o) recipe for chicken jalfrezi that was really yum! I think because it was made with passata rather than tinned tomatoes, the sauce was really thick and smooth. I adapted it with exta SFs but it was so much better than my usual SW curry where the sauce is always a bit thin and watery. Will definitely make it again.

do you have the recipe for the chicken jalfrezi?

I didn't realise that.:eek: You can split them though can't you? cos I find it difficult to eat 6 of the extra light laughing cow cheeses yet I do love a couple on toast or ryvitas. Will have to remember that. I could have 3 ELLC's on my toast/ryvitas and 20 grams of Feta sprinkled on my salads cos I love Feta. (I don't drink tea/coffee)

Thanks for the info.......still getting my head round it.

Hello all,
I have been on holiday this week so have been out of internet contact, but first of all, big hugs to Blackberry rum - really sorry to hear about your cat. I gave up trying to catch up on the thread, so hope everyone else is ok!
I had lost 1.5 at WI just before I went on holiday, but a sneaky WI this morning showed I had put on 1 again. Food was very good on holiday, but the beer and wine did the damage. Back to fizzy water with a slice of lime for me! I will try and minimise the damage today and Monday before weigh in and see.
Still on track for 20 lbs off by the end of 2011.
Food so far today:
Bubble and Squeak and flat mushrooms, baked in the oven with frylight.
HEA on skimmed milk for coffee/tea

Need to do lots of school work today and meal plan the week. I know the indian takeaway will be calling tonight (back to work treat etc etc) so am going to plan a curry for tonight and start prepping it early so I am not tempted...!
Good luck everyone.

Morning all!

The visitors have gone!:j:j:j
I can finally get back to normal - I have tried really hard to stick to the plan while they've been here but its sooo hard when you're eating out all of the time. I don't think I'll have put anything on but its doubtful whether I'll have lost anything .... we'll see on Tuesday:eek:

So today's food in my lovely quiet house will be....

Breakfast - Hifi bar
Lunch - reduced fat houmous (B choice), cheese (A choice), mini bread sticks (3 syns), apple, quorn 'ham'
Tea - sweet potato soup (HM) (free)
Snacks - strawberries, raspberries, pomegranate (2 for 99p in my greengrocers)

So that's 1 xA, 1 xB, 3 syns so far... I'm sure that will change but I'll try to keep the syns down today to try to counteract the possible oversynning of the past few days.

I had too many syns on Friday evening (Was good up until I got home from work) and had too many yesterday. Today is a new day and trying hard to be good.

Not really sure what plan I am following today but have had a Hi fi for breakfast (HEB) then followed this by a huge bowl of strawberries. I bought these on Friday for a treat but forgot about them!! The treat for my OH was a piece of chocolate fudge cake !

I really fancy sw chips for lunch topped with a couple of fried eggs and undecided for tea. I think I might have the Mr T Simply Cook Lamb shanks (free) with cabbage, carrots and sweetcorn. I don't have any superfree planned for lunch and don't fancy any more strawberries post sw chips at the moment so think I might treat today as a mix to match day. Does anyone still do mix to match?

Im not sure on syns. Really I should keep these low given the excesses of the last couple of days. I am trying hard to adopt the mindset that unless I need syns as part of a main meal, (for example the innocent veg pot I had the other day for lunch or a bit of sauce) then syns can only be used post 9pm. Otherwise, I have chocolate syns in the morning and come the evening, I want that glass of wine or treat size choc bar but don't have any syns left. Inevitably I still have whatever treat it is I want and I end up going over my syns.

I know it would be a good idea for me to plan my syns so that I can have more than 15 at the weekend and limit them during the week.
