Cricky 2 A's aswell as 2 B's thats quite alot. hmmmmmmmmmmmm intresting, i like that idea. When checking book, cant believe how many laughing cows you can have a day. Little confused about Ryvitas, is it 2 ryvita as one HE or 4 as one HE?:confused:

I cant believe i totally somehow had the wrong idea about healthy extras, ive been having only 1 A per day and 1 B. I follow the red day and green day plan, and never realised you can have 1 A and 2 B's. Could this be why im not really losing weight? Only realised this when discussing...

im toying with the idea of getting one, but not to sure. What do you guys think of them, and are they worth it?:)

Hi Guys Just wondering if any of you have the syn value for the above :)

Does anyone know the syn values for 250ml glass before i open and start drinking it? :)

I found these in my freezer so thought id use them up before my big winter shop, funny thing was all this time i thought they were fish fingers, and i didnt even realise they tasted like chicken, opps silly me. Does anyone have the syns? i can post the details if needed. Cheers ;)

cant find in my directory :( Does anyone know the syns? i can post the details if needed.

Yeah i seemed to be on a mission yesterday, after all that cooking i cleaned the kitchen from top to bottom. I must admit i found the cooking quite relaxig for a change. It helped with getting great bargins on the veg from aldi.

Im having left over chickpea curry (which i made on tuesday) with rice, cant wait, really hungry today

I had beef casserole which i cooked all day in my slower cooker, and got enough left over for my dinner thursday. :rolleyes:

I made some for my roast dinner and it was yummy. Bisto gravy powder (2 tsp = 1 syn) with a chicken oxo crumbled in.

Ive just brought the wii fitness coach for my WII, done 30 minutes cardio monday and 30 minutes core yesterday. Im going to do another 30 minutes tonight and tomrrow. I will increase in time, but just thought id ease myself into it, ill tell you my legs really ache so must be doing something hehe

Is it me or is food shopping getting more expensive....... since being on this diet (only weeks) my food shopping bill has risen quite abit, is funny how it cost so much more to eat more healthier. Has anyone else noticed it or is it just me :confused:

ive noticed the muller light offer ( 8 for £2) seems to rotate each week between tesco, sainsburys and asda. my mum shops in sainsbury so will find out if the offer is in there this week when she does her shopping on friday.

Thanks Brightonrosie, yeah i think 1 banana is enough feel abit like im turning into a monkey hehe, i think i might try and train myself to try strawberry as they might not taste to bad if i add yoghurt to them or sweetner, hopefully my taste buds may change. Todays munch:Green Day (wednesday)...
