I like ameretto but have been avoiding it as I don't know the syn value..I generally have white wine or a spritzer, normally too many! :0) I have been having cobra 0% from alidi (1.99 for 4 bottles) in the eve, very refreshing and as its alcohol free only 3 1/2 syns per bottle..

yay! well done! enjoy driving! xxx

I normally put fresh chillis, lots of chilli powder, paprika or mexican spice mix in mine...i like it very hot though! have you got any tabasco? that could help...

oooooo whats this fake cream recipe? do share! :0)

made it with chocolate orange options and stirred in some zest and a teeny bit of juice tonight...ooo and a vanilla and choc muller to thin it out a bit...was gorgeous!!! mmmmmmm

I made these with banana muller today and thought they were nice, not going to syn them, could only eat one anyway as they are filling! going to try one on friday with some low fat custard! yum!

thanks ladies! It didn't put me back at all anyway so was a good treat :0) xxx

just had a yummy tea thats really simple.. diced up pork with paprika, chilli powder and cumin and stirred in a little yoghurt and popped on some skewers with red onion and red pepper and baked in the oven...but you could grill, bbq, griddle...so quick but very tasty!

how many syns is ammeretto? i've been wondering this for some time...i love it in coke!

I had a veggies breakfast today but didn't eat all of it...I had- 1 veggies sausage, 1 fried egg, 1 hash brown, a tblsp beans, 1/2 grilled tomato and had 2 bacon as a side but left fat and blotted it as it was very greasy!!! any ideas on the damage people? i'm on a red day! thanks in advance...

well I've already used all my syns and maybe more on a wetherspoons breakfast...i'm on a red day so on top of that i'm having gammon,pineapple, jacket potato (HEXB) and veggies for dinner and have already munched a banana and 2 nectarines...

yeah I like george...especially as I just got in their size 14's...silly I know but it made me happy! but I totally agree with you all on sizes...suppose it's hard to standardise because everyone is built differently..it is a pain having to trail around all the different shops!

everyone deserves a little treat every now and again! like we say, you would go mad if you didn't and end up eating lots of other rubbish! as long as we stay on track after the treat! I brought home lots of chocolate yesterday as i'm a teaching assistant and a few of the kids bought me pressies...

I've lost 2 stone and have gone from size 18 to 14 (bought first size 14 trousers today! - don't care how generous they are they are 14's yay!) about to have a glass of vino to celebrate!

I just made this with quark and options, added raspberries and crumble 2 little meringue shells in and it was gorgeous!!! and only 3.5 syns! yay! xxx

I have been avoiding them for the same reason (wine and cream!) but that sounds yummy! farm foods do a huge bag of mussels for a great price if I remeber rightly, but thats just the meat, but they would work just as well..thanks!

feeling very pleased with myself and my will power today, there were so many really yummy looking cakes and biscuits on offer in the staff room today and I resisted!

I got that yesterday when I said I had two stone left to loose, I've lost lots tummy up but its clinging around my bum and thighs, so I think thats where the 2 stone is! bought a size 14 top today (which fits nicely) and got in a size 14 jeans but they were skin tight! a bit to go yet! but yes...

I just tend to treat myself to choc etc within my syns, if I completely let go and had whatever I wanted even for just one meal I just worry I'd fall off the wagon...really don't feel like I'm missing anything as yet but its only been a couple of months, I guess that might change! mind you I...
