You could probably do it yourself with paprika, chilli powder, bit of cinnamon - all free.
 
I should add, it's not a lot of syns especially if you're splitting it between a few people. It's just a case of whether you want to save them for something else!
 
Good day for me so far and a bit of a roast chicken dinner later with lots of sprouts yum! Only thing I dont like about sunday roasts on sw is bisto gravy :/ I love ladles of homemade gravy :( lol a small sacrifice for now I suppose as I used most of my syns already only got 6 left and I cant remember how many homemade gravy is
 
Thank you for the porridge help ladies. I made a massive lentil and bacon soup for lunches this week. Having a good day today, had mackereal in tomato sauce for lunch, god help any one coming in for a kiss!!
Paprika chicken for tea tonight, i'm going to add the corn flour tonight because I haven't had any syns today and it helps to thicken it up a bit. Hope you're all having a good Sunday.
 
on the food diary online does anyone know why some of the free foods are in green writing and some in red? i thought it may be for free on those days as im doing ee today so can have both but even drinks are red and some veg green some red
 
If you are doing ee I wouldn't worry about it to be honest. They are for what is free on green and free on red, things like yogurt and eggs could be in either colour, so if you had selected to be doing green, if it is free on both it'd come up in green, and vice versa, but on ee it will use either colour.

Had a lovely dinner of pot roast and gratin potatoes, Nate ate everything other than most of the meat (he is a bit rubbish with meat. So after his yogurts I let him pick a stocking treat and he has just handed me a third back that he is done :eek:
 
I only like your comment Ciara because we are both in the same situation. Today and yday have been blow outs but back on it with work tomorrow...booo to work, yay for SW!

I know I don't wanna go to school :( my flights delayed an hour I've been so bored. I lost the plot food wise this weekend. My laptop broke yesterday and it was the last straw and sent me running straight to the fridge for some reason!

thats ok then was starting to worry that i had been drinking diet pepsi on a green day aswell as red and wasnt supposed to lol
 
i love pepsi max i have been drinking that instead of full sugar for about a year now and i cant really stand the full sugar stuff anymore as i can taste the sweetness ten times as much as before
 
Another Wednesday Weigher here!

Girls, it's on - the OH and I have just booked a holiday in the Dominican Republic for Oct 2013! So excited because we've been putting off having a proper holiday but we kept talking about it and not doing anything. I AM going to feel good in a bikini by then! Bring on target!

Woohoo this is exciting news :) I'm well jel :) look forward to proposal news too! ;)

I'm having a good second day back on plan. low syn so far but its me and oh 5 year anniversary today so we're chilling at home and then going to an italian later! So tomato based sauce all the way!

Happy anniversary x
 
Ok so it's d day -2 back on plan tomorrow and rejoin on tuesday so rather ashamedly have eaten everything in sight today not helped by having family visiting! Meals planned for tomorrow and I think I'm ready :) strangely Yesterday i did a bit of sorting myself out, just in strange little ways like eyebrow plucking and painting my toenails for the first time since Xmas I feel like I'm starting to take care of myself again. Is that weird? X
 
Wow how exciting Emily, that would be an amazing place for a proposal but can see what you mean about wanting to celebrate straight away. Sounds like it would serve your brother right haha! 2 weeks time we will be away skiing and I keep dropping hints about how amazing a mountaintop proposal would be but he isn't biting! Haha! Well done also for the fab loss!

Aww happy anniversary tata! Great you are back on plan, such a good feeling getting back in control!

Christie very jealous of your roast! I could drink pints of homemade gravy, best thing ever!

Skinny that chicken sounds amazing! Do you have the recipe pleae?

Your dinner sounds amazing too fran! Finally stopped feeling queasy from the greasy curry last night and now want to eat everyone else's dinners! Bless Nate for giving the treat back, he soun like he has some lovely little ways amongst the pickle ness! :)

Hope your first day goes well tomorrow Jenna, how long is this position again? I know you said but I've forgotten! Is there a chance of it being lengthened or is a fixed term thing?

ciara you're brave flying back night before! Hope you've had a lovely time though and tomorrow goes well. Never easy going back to work! I went back Wednesday last week and its amazing how the shortest working week of the year can feel like the longest!


Can't remember if i told you girls but My mum surprised me with Robbie tickets for wembley the other day! We couldn't afford them when they were released and thought they had all sold out but after she got her inheritance through from my nan she decided to check and there were a few tickets left for 5th July so we are going then! So excited! It's only a week before my birthday too so even better! I love Robbie so actually can't wait :)
Just been trying all my ski gear on to make sure it still fits! Bought it all quite a few months ago and sure my weight is a bit higher now than it was then but it all fits. Phew! 2 weeks today we shall be having out first evening in the hotel preparing to start our first day skiing the following morning! Been doing my pre ski exercises this evening, they are tough! Bit like the shred in some ways so in hoping they will help with toning me up a bit! Will also get back into shred this week to give myself an arse kicking before we go.
Loved dancing on ice tonight, off to bed now to dream of being an ice dancer! Haha xx

Thank you!

It was too late as he had made it. Little gutted. Although haven't had any other syns. We always used to use our own but it's just easier for him to grab!!

Any chilli mixs that aren't synful!! I wonder why there are so many! X
 
Yay! that's great news about the tickets! and that everything still fits. Maybe your fella is just pretending not to bite so it'll still be a surprise.

Nate can be cute sometimes. He offered me one of his mini smarties yesterday (he ate all his dinner then too) from his smarties penguin. Usually I make him giggle and hide his chocolate by pretending to try to eat it. He never hands me some back. Before dinner he was really hungry and trying to steal food (he had some fruit in the end, too cruel to keep him waiting). Another reason why I like cooking, I know it is ready when I said it'll be ready.
 
Well I am stuffed! I always cook way too many sprouts so ended up with at least half a plate superfree lol good job I only did potatoes, mushy peas and chicken with it or I would have had no room lol for the gravy I used a bisto original gravy powder (0.5syn per tsp I believe? so 1 for the amount I used) and the veg water with a beef stock cube and it was actually pretty nice, alot nicer than using just the bisto granules and water so will be using that from now on. Its still hard to believe that me being this stuffed isnt a bad thing as im stuffed on good food!
