Good morning - hope you dont mind me placing my rather large bottom in here for a while! - ive just completed my 1st week on SW and have my weigh in tonight! - ive got a lot to lose (first weigh in 17stone.3lbs :() but really feel the time has come to sort it out - im only 36 and have already ruined the last 4 years making ' excuses' not to have to go out over christmas with the girls - so fingers crossed december 2013 will be a slimmer one! - I am already finding my health has improved in the last week - i suffer from heartburn and have had to take a 1 a day heartburn tablet for as long as i can remember -And havent needed one for 5 days! I also have stacks more energy and havent had that mid afternoon & mid afternoon slump! - Love the fact that there are so many ways of finding inspiration and support online FB is great but i still dont want to post on there as i dont want people knowing im dieting - as we all know some people can put you down before you begin! - so here i am - on here anonymous and i think by being able to follow the thread, read other peoples weightloss journeys AND see my weight in black and white as i post - in a weird way that will help me? lol who knows - fingers crossed for a nice loss tonight - and good luck to everyone else too - xx:j:j:j

I struggle with eating. Once I start I don't stop so im trying that new fasting diet to see how that goes.

well my beef, wine & mushroom casserole seems to be mostly wine with a a few mushrooms and bits of beef thrown in . Tastes pretty good though :o

I also had a veggie bag which has sweetcorn in - can someone tell me what the syn value is for the sweetcorn? There inst much - maybe a handful (at best)

ETA welcome moomoominx

ETA x 2 - just to say i am doing a red day today hence the question about syns

Would be interested to know what fellow posters have for their lunch as I'm finding it hard to plan synfree lunches meaning I'm wasting syns

I used to buy (and still do when i can find them) the birds eye steamfresh veg bags. One pack with sweetcorn, carrot and brocolli on a red day used to be 1 syn.

Today i have had beef, wine & mushroom casserole which has a few syns in. Yesterday i did a lot of cooking in preparation for the week and made home made mushroom soup (just mushrooms & veg stock) will be using total 0% greek yoghurt to make it a bit creamier (not sure if there is syns in this though??) .
Also made veggie & tuna pasta with passata with herbs in - this is free on EE day & green (as long as you use tuna as hex b). Both will be used for lunch time.

what plan do you usually go for FE? I will see if i can think up some solutions (also whats your set up? are you at home? in work?whats the kitchen like?)
