Judderman, I think i'd go for the fish shop option as marion has said too or the chinese take away but have it with boiled rice instead? Your chicken could be a HEB and then the syns are the other oils etc in the curry?

I must admit i do sometimes eat something like this as a treat after i've had my weigh in night. I think it's ok to have a treat every now and again as long as you try to choose the better option and get back on the wagon the day after. If I do this I try to keep my syn use low for the rest of the week too.

Edited to add - stay away from the pizza though LOL..

thanks for that - yes I tend to do the same - though I want to try being a bit more organised and not do this on weigh in night and save it for when I have a rough day on the whole, I think keeping a WW ready meal or two in stock might be an idea too.

thanks all :beer::beer:

Mornin all :hello:

anyone else any answers on the below ? especially peeps who have been doing SW for some time and know it inside out .

thnaks very much in advance

I'm in two minds on this one - the fish and chips (stand back from the mffin!!) would be my personal choice - kinda does everything I need for a i've-had-a-bad-week-and-need-a-treat feeling, I leave the lowest skin, so only having half the batter, and would count as grren and B's (but know that I was cheating the system)

However - I wonder whether the ready meal option

A ready meal - most often - Tesco Taste the difference (or whatever their posh/expensive versions are called) Red Thai Chicken Curry with Egg fried rice

would be 'better' as it is likely to be a more sensible portion size - especially if you had it with plain rice??......

I did well this week - had some baked bean lasagne I had put in the freezer and some SW chips I'd patr boiled night before - I popped the chips in the oven before I set off for weigh in and when I got in - I whacked the lasagne in the oven and added the chips for last 6/7 mins just to re heat them :j:j:T:T

haddock in batter 120g 9 syns, 170g 13 syns, 227g 17 syns. chips stdrd 227g 27 syns, large portion 40.5 syns muffin 8 syns

3) A pizza (very large - 14 in) - potential;y a veggie one
(cant find this size pizza but a Pizza hut individual margherita is 11syns per slice hun.)

4) A ready meal - most often - Tesco Taste the difference (or whatever their posh/expensive versions are called) Red Thai Chicken Curry with Egg fried rice
Tesco Finest Red thai chicken curry with rice frozen 475 g 20syns
Naturally good food red thai chicken curry with rice 475g 16 syns

hmmm my thoughts on that one are that thai food does use a lot of coconut and as such is quite high in fat content - next time I have one (been good not had one for ages) - I must use the syn calculator to check how bad it is

morning folks

Well, i had to be up extra early for a hair appointment this morning & didn't have time for brekkie.
So after my hair cut i had to pop in M & S to get some bits for my mum. i gave in to one of the cheese scones but said I will look it up & count as syns when i got home.
I Just looked on SW website OMG 18 SYNS!!! each I wouldn't mind but OH wasn't keen & had the rest of his as well.
I guess i will be eating a lot of free food over the next few days
