Measuring for syns.. be carefull!
i have 2 sugars in my coffee 4 times a day which works out at 8 syns... or so i thought!
i bought a set of measuring spoons and checked how much sugar i was actually using and it worked out to be 3.5 syns per coffee!! (3 and a half tea spoons) so i had been using not 8 syns, but 14 syns!
now im measuring and having proper tea spoons, but im going to try drop it to one if i can,
so dont guess coz you could be going way over like i was :(
no wonder i gained last week lol x

My cutlery set is really big. I've never used them when measuring things. Always use my measuring spoons.
On the sugar front, I started using sweetex sweetener in work but still had a small sugar in my coffee in the morning. When I switched to Alpro soya milk I didn't need any sugar/sweetener any more. I find soya milk sweeter than semi skimmed.
