    I don't think I have ever weighed less than him. When we met I was 9 stone 4 lbs, he was 8 stone 7 lbs. I have fattened him up!

    :T to MrsR and Poohsticks. It's great to have a loss.:)


    Which recipe do you use for the KFC chicken bubbs? Do you use breadcrumbs or one of the cheats like Smash or quinoa?


    I know today will be heavy on syns but that's mostly down to wine. In the end I didn't have any gin last night:eek: so I'm well in hand. I couldn't see any syns in my lunch other than some oil. very low on Speed today. I'll make a syn estimate at the end of the day to keep track but basically I need to keep it low from Monday onwards. Simple.;)


    Today's EE plan:
    B: NAS grapefruit, scrambled eggs, HEB toast, HEA milk for drinks
    L: Zizzi's prawn linguine
    D: Aldi Lamb Rogan Josh (xtra mushrooms), pilau rice, SW chips
    Syns: bread 2.5, HP sauce 1, curry 1.5, rice 1, oil ? wine tba

    Great stuff, Mrs_R and p00hsticks.

    Well, the mighty Bairns’ disastrous run continues with yet another 3 nil defeat! It’s driving me to …….. At least Scotland got a gold (women) and a silver (men) in the curling championshops – and, of course, there was that narrow ;} win over Australia in the rugby. So Saturday hasn’t been all bad.

    Breakfast: hexb roll & tomatoes (3), ¼ of a melon
    Lunch: Batchelors Pasta ‘n’ Sauce cheese & broccoli ( ½ )with cubes of cooked ham, Light & Free raspberry yogurt
    Snacks: 5 Merryteasers mini reindeer (20!!!!)
    Dinner meatballs (8) & spaghetti with hm tomato sauce , parmesan (1 ½ )
    Snacks: grapes & hexa cheese

    So just 30+ syns.
