    I ALWAYS do it! However I do syn it all out and make it up within the next week so I've never really gone over my syns! On Monday night after WI I had 28.5 syns, yesterday I had 17 and today I've had 2 which takes my total to 47.5, so I'm back to having 12.5 syns tomorrow :) jobs a good'un!

    I just copied and pasted this recipe but you can still use Oat So Simple porridge oats. They only took the sachets of porridge away from from a hex B because they were only something like 27g which 'wasn't enough' to qualify as a hex B. It's an unflavoured porridge oats though yes x
