Oooh those new potatoes sound lovely - must try those!

Does anyone have a list please of the syn values of quorn products - in particular the ready to eat 'cooked' ranges - like chicken pieces, scotch eggs, sliced replacements for ham/beef etc, and the frozen packets of chicken pieces?

liking the sound of SW pancakes! - think i need to make those!

Oooh those sausages sounds really nice - i must try them - thanks

Thanks for that recipe Looby - ive just printed it off and im going to make it this weekend - and the lemon curd - sounds lovely!

Thanks for these suggestions, eating out chinese tonight - and i was panicking!

Quick chicken curry - cooked chicken in chunks, quark mixed with tikka masala paste, tomato, mix it all together and heat in microwave. Only syns are in the tikka paste - serve with rice, pasta, jacket tate etc

think i need a bigger slow cooker!

Anyone know the syn values of these http://groceries.morrisons.com/webshop/product/M-Kitchen-Fresh-Ideas-Chicken--Chorizo-Paella/210530011?prevPageIndex=11&from=shop&tags=%7C105651%7C104268%7C104474&parentContainer=%7C104268%7C104474_SHELFVIEW Thanks!

Yes thanks - ready for Xmas - works party tonight, but far too many parties with food to go to - must be good - happy slimming over the festive period - serious diet head on for me in January!!

remained the same this week - which reminds me i need to update my signature block lol - how did you do?

Oooh - danger point off to London overnight tomorrow and a meal out in an italian - i must be good!

Good look Muaddib - im sure you will get there!

thanks for this list - im not a great cook and look for all recipes with the least ingredients!!

Cooked my first 'roast chicken' in the slow cooker this week - it worked out great - sat it on four foil scrunched up balls as suggested and just left if while i was out at work (about 11 hours actually in all) it was lovely when i got back - moist inside but the skin still went crispy -which...

Thanks Scooter Boy - actually lost 4 pounds on my weigh in on Friday - but then had a big xmas lunch out this Sunday - so will see what damage ive done on the scales again this Friday - good luck to you too :-)

Thanks Folks - didnt do too well on my first week weigh in - but that was just the aftermath of the weekend before i restarted the diet - i will do better next week!

Thanks Scooter boy - not a successful first week - but i know why lol! - i will get back on track :-)

Hi Xtina66 - thanks for your message. Its a hard time of year isnt it to start again with Xmas on the way - but i just so want to try and loose a few pounds before Xmas - so that i can get into the right mindset! Have you just restarted this week too then?

Thanks for your encouragement. It does help. Not feeling great this morning - started my diet properly again on Monday and have my weigh in date (at home) each Friday morning - and ive gained 0.75 pounds. I know its a knock on effect from what i had last weekend before i started on Monday - but...

yes - logged back in after lunch and ive been able to add my picture now - thanks :)

Ooh thanks for that Kathy, i need to get more confident with my slow cooker so might try a roast of somekind now. I was a bit like you the first few times ive used it - in case it dried out/ set of fire or something i would only put it on when i was in the house lol!

Oooh - i wish i had that willpower - as a child we were taught to clear our plates - so feel guilty if i leave food - so i just need to use smaller plates or make sure its all healthy foods!

Thanks - i seem to have got to 20 posts now - but its still not removing the message at the top or letting me add a pic :-(

Thanks Llamasoks - i must try and leave healthy snacks around to grab instead of filling up on extra syn values i know - i WILL get back to target!

oh thanks for that - i love cheese and onion anything!!

oooh must try sweet quark - i eat loads savoury - but never thought of the sweetner and vanilla extract - thanks

i use quark for a creamy carbonara - spagetti, boiled, mix in grilled lean bacon chopped up, a beaten egg, quark, garlic paste, and a few syns with some parmesan on top!

thanks for this - im gonna try this one soon - sounds yummy!

How many syns is there is 35g of porridge with SS milk rather than water, dont think i could eat it just with water? - id have to put sweetner and a banana on too - but not sure of the syn difference?

Oooh i love my curries - think im gonna have to try that one this weekend!

liking the sound of the sweet couscous and the rice puddings - im off to the shops now to buy the ingredients!

chunky soup with pasta in - thats what i do - make it as thick as possible so its like a full meal and you dont need to dunk!

Hi 'Toliveordiet' - can i ask when you do a roast or a chicken in the slow cooker - do you need to put any 'moisture/ water' in there too - or coat the joint with anything - or will it just cook like that on its own? Im not the best cook - and like slow cooker recipes with the least ingredients...

Thanks Circles - ive just printed that off to keep with me when i go shopping to make sure i always get the free ones (apart from the Thai migshot which i just love!)

Can i just ask - is a post a new thread that you start yourself - or is a post counted as when you reply to other threads?

Ive done both SW and WW - and find SW much easier - and i hate to cook. Yes there are convenience foods on WW - but for me the SW attitude of healthy eating is a much better way of doing things for a 'life style change' rather than a quick fix diet. I eat lots of quark and pasta on SW - really...

Hi Baxk - well it started well - had the right mindset on all day - until later that evening when i was dashing around with too much to do - and ended up having a quick and easy tea (pitta and reduced fat houmous) as no time to cook. Just ate too many pitta bread thats all! :sigh:

that sounds scrummy - deffo gonna try that one!

i have this all the time with strawberries or raspberries - both are superspeed foods. Instead of cream - try the Muller Greek Yoghurt (only half a syn) - vanilla and coconut - lovely - add a little canderel for a sweeter taste

Thanks Baxk - i will try that today for sure. I do always try to refer to it as 'healthy eating' rather than using the dreaded 'diet' word!!

Anyone know the syn value of the new big bowl sachets here? - original variety - thanks
