    Morning all,

    Well done on your loss and new front number @annabanana82 - great incentive to keep at it and resist the higher syn ice lolly! I'm not too fussed about frozen treats as my teeth are really sensitive, so that's one thing I don't crave!

    @Longwalker ewwww to the bleeder - I sympathise!!!

    Glad your DDad has been admitted @ruby_eskimo. Totally unacceptable to have him waiting in chairs for that long. Hope he's comfortable and do look after yourself too xx

    Happy holidays @joedenise x

    The Sticky Roast Pork recipe from the new mag/Traybake book was okay..... Another way to use pork fillet I guess although I prefer the spinach stuffed, parma ham version.

    I am attending a funeral this afternoon - the mum of a friend. Won't be eating though as it's a 3pm service and I will have had my lunch. Will have a cuppa though. We are at a friends birthday drinks later. I've found 2 portions of Mexican chicken in the freezer, so DH and I will have those for dinner, save me cooking. I'll drive tonight so no alcohol syns for me!

    Food today:
    B - poached egg, 1 x wm toast - P, 1/2 HEB
    L - cheese omelette, lettuce, tomatoes, cucumber, pickles - P, HEA, S
    D - LO Mexican chicken - free
    HEA - milk
    1/2 HEB - skinny bar
    Syns - none currently planned. Will have a think......

    Well done @bubbs for getting back into target. I was right, the Belgian bun did the trick! 🤣

    Brilliant loss for you @annabanana82 and a new number on the scales. So pleased for you. 👏👏👏

    I've had two busy days with more syns than usual but did my shop on the way home tonight so back on plan properly tomorrow. 

    We had a lovely time on the IoW yesterday. Pleased to report that the cafe at Osborne House did jacket potatoes. 👍 DH wanted to have dinner out too but I didn't really fancy anywhere so we came home and I compromised by having breaded fish which he loves. 

    Today we've been out for lunch and I had a pork roast. It was all home made including a faggot which was delicious and worth the inevitable syns. 

    Haven't really managed to read all posts but will be back on track tomorrow. Glorious day here, wall to wall sunshine and blue skies. Hope you're not still in your winter fleece @Longwalker. 😁

    Woohoo bubbs  :)

    Glad that you enjoyed your day maman.

    The begger is still outside my local SAinsbugs & he is deeply offensive I have not been near today as I no longer just pop in for just the odd thing.
    I went to a wee local shop & bought a very expensive & no doubt very high syn singing & dancing solero.
