Evening all,

not feeling myself tonight...not sure why though :S

The day started off so well and has gone down hill haha but that's ok. Back on it from tomorrow as tomorrow is a new day - trying to be much less harsh with myself as I've been beating myself up quite badly this week Just trying to relax as something this week is making me feel snacky - got the feeling its unconscious stress from starting at work so hopefully that will pass soon!

Also, not drank enough today so I have a blinder of a headache.

No longer able to make it to group due to times and work, and my group having moved to a venue that's extremely awkward for me (and more) so I'm going to try going it alone an weighing regularly (but not too regularly) on the chemists scales!
Just trying to straighten my head out and get back in to a good, positive mindset! It's not even to do with food it's just in general but I appear to have fallen in to being an emotional eater perhaps somewhere along the line:S

I will take my negative mindset off for a [mental] stretch and see if I can't shake it off

I think I am just going to have to write this week off completely!
Tomoro is weigh in day, and I am not even contemplating what might happen!
I don't know what has been wrong with me this week. People bringing naughty things in to work usually doesn't faze me, but this week I've been like a cake hoover, and I polished it off tonight with a chinese and I am in the process of drinking a whole bottle of Prosecco....And the worst thing is, I don't care!
But, I have today, meal planned and shopped for the week, and did a bit of cooking for the freezer this afternoon. What I actually wanted to do tho, was go to bed and sleep and just stay there
Grrr, bl**dy annoyed with myself :mad:

They maybe more expensive but for those who are new to cooking from scratch it gives a reference point on what to look for until they have the confidence to find their ways around the ethnic sections.

Hugs to Lush and Sharalee. Tomorrow is a new day and a new start and you both know you can get back on track.

Maman. The recipe is just 40g dark choc, eggs, sweetner, f/f nat yog. tin cherries, cocoa powder. I think i have remembered it all, cant get mag as it is in lounge and just moped floors.

Ceecee white bread in any form can not be used as HEB as theres no dietry fibre in it so has to be synned sorry.

I looked online and difficult to tell whether the 10 syns for tinned cherries included the juice or not, so drained may not be 10. Whatever, you've saved syns by going for frozen berries.

ceccee, although white bread isn't an HEB you don't have to eat your HEB as well if you don't want to. I wouldn't advocate missing out on HEXs generally but one day without an HEB won't matter. Just remember to syn the white roll.

Called into Aldi's tonight on the way back from amazing football:D (sad or what:() and got passata, tomatoes and red beans. I'm going to do my chilli tomorrow as a mix of Hairy Bikers and the Cowboy recipe in the mag. I have the herbs and spices for the Hairy Bikers but I'm going to add the peppers and mushrooms and the 'mince sauce' from the SW recipe. I like to do chilli before I want to eat it as I think it marinates and gets better, even in the freezer.

Hi Everyone, I was just wondering if someone would be able to look up the syn value for a Quorn peppered steak please? It's going to be my protein at lunch as my in laws are coming over for roast chicken. I will do my potatoes and parsnips in frylight, which makes my OH happy as he can then use goose fat for everyone else!

Thanks in advance x

Thanks - that is what I meant. I had synned the roll but didn't really want my HexB and wasn't sure whether I had to eat it even if I didn't want anything....in the end I had two Alpen bars just to be on the safe side. !
