Happy Sunday one and all

Well done Shala on the loss a loss is a loss
What crisps are you having for 4syns?
I love mint sauce actually love it - sugar free mint sauce is free

Hey Mildredd, i'm having hoops and crosses today, the prawn cocktail ones are 4 syns (although I've managed not to have them so far!!) but I think French fries are about 4 syns too.

OH has decided to have tea later so we'll be having it after 7 :j which means I probably won't need a snack after all.. I have just snaffled some carrots whilst preparing them for tea though :A

I've decided I need to prepare more and that should get me through the days easier.. i'm just cooking a nice carrot and almond pilaf that I can take to work tomorrow and freeze some for other lunches, it's 10 syns for the whole recipe but I've done half and it should be 3-4 lunches easy so about 1.5 syns per portion!

Then i'm going to sit and go through some recipes and decide a meal plan for the rest of the week!

Sorry to bore you all but I need to try and motivate myself into completing at least one day this week..

wow to plan a diet is realy difficult, Thanks for starting this thread, It seems it has been re started or dsomething i m IN

Don't worry, we can help with ideas.:)

If you join a group you'll get a book with a week's sample menu. There's also one (along with loads of recipes) in the SW magazine and if you go to the SW site there's a 7 day menu there too. So that's plenty to get you started!

Your night out sounded great MrsRyan and surprisingly low syn. Hope the headache's gone.

Shala, at least your weight is going down. Don't scoff at it, in fact just don't scoff!!;)

Talking of mint sauce, it makes a nice dip with FF yogurt. You can add onion and cucumber if you want. it's sort of like raita.

I'm doing OK today. My EE Menu:

B: NAS Ribena, 2 boiled eggs, HEB toast, HEA milk for teas
L: HM vegetable soup
chicken pieces roasted with onions, garlic, tomatoes and mushrooms with wedges and cauli/broccoli cheese
Syns: cheese sauce, weekend wine;)

Currently debating what to do today might go for a nice long walk into town although I do want to go to the city to get the last Xmas bits I want for dd. might see how the next hour pans out

Now come on beanie. If mildredd can get her Christmas shopping done in September I'm sure we can organise a week's meals!;) What about looking on the SW website or through your books or old magazines. Or try googling SW meals or look at cookery books. Or you could look at other people's meal plans on the OS board and adapt things. . Frylight is a wonderful thing!

No they're not - they're 1.5 syns each, but if you make 3 pots out of the pint of jelly they are then 0.5 syns each

Weigh in number 3 in the morning! :eek:

Mildredd

Shala - I love hoops and crosses!! How did I miss their syn value being so low! I've been going for stars!!

Beanie its true I have Xmas for my dd all bought and on its way now
Just some books and bath toys left to pick up and maybe a my little pony or two
However I have nothing planned for this coming week food wise eep
Will be perusing sw website tomorrow for inspiration - feel a mushy pea curry coming on and maybe a new casserole from the magazine leaflet xxx
Safe choices here - roasted chicken and veg, sw roast dinner, spag Bol, scouse, sw tikka, chicken Kiev, sw burgers, jacket spud or tuna pasta

Dreading wi tomorrow xxx

Mildredd

Catt - your right sorry! I have one in the cupboard but resisting as jelly goes with Icecream in this house like a child
