Went to a local soft play with Reece and a friend today 
Had a really good time seems as Reece is at that age where he wants to play and climb through the obstacles- even though I have to try and get through as well sometimes!! Not easy when this one is designed for 2-5 year olds! I bought Reece a teeny fairy cake but he didn't want all of it as he was too busy running around and diving into ball pits so it was left on the plate- a small bite taken out... I felt sorry for it so I ate it! I miss cake. But it was tiny and I've had a similar sized one before so can make an educated estimation on the syns!
Todays food-
B: Half a satsuma.
L: 2 x stuffed mushrooms (2 large flat mushrooms, 50g philadelphia light part hexA, onion, red pepper topped with cherry tomatoes and 15g reduced fat cheddar part hexA) Looked like a pizza with a mushroom base!! Yogurt.
D: Homemade spaghetti bolognese (250g 12% fat mince beef 5syns, onions, garlic, mushrooms, tomato puree, tinned tomatoes amd stock on spaghetti). I had half so 2.5syns.
Snacks: Teeny fairy cake 5syns. Yogurt. Frozen raspberries. Mini bag pretzels 5.5syns.
Drinks: 3 x cups of tea (sweetener and dashes of skimmed milk 1.5syns) Pepsi max cherry. Flavoured fizzy water.
Syn Total- 14.5syns

I am going to pick some of those crumbles up - it's handy to have stuff in for when you don't fancy cooking. I don't think I could have left the cake abandoned either!

They are tasty Snow- and boil or steam some veggies and you've got a full meal with superfree!!
Happy Halloween ladies!! Hope you are being good with the treats!
We've had a few trick or treaters so got rid of some of the sweets! Although got funny looks from Reece when he realised I was giving away his treats!!
I couldn't find him a Halloween costume- was so annoying! So we made him into a DiY zombie using some of his old clothes. Reece even helped by smearing his face with paints

Would it maybe help changing your WI day since you want the treats on a saturday? Maybe a friday so you have a week to work them off? lol
I bet you'll still have a good result next week when you weigh, you've done so well!

Thanks MC!
I was going to WI this morning instead but was up all last night with a little sickness and the "other" (TMI sorry!) Didn't feel too good after my dinner yesterday and thinking the prawns may have not been the best- I generally buy frozen and defrost when I need them but maybe I didn't defrost them properly...
Has impacted on a lack of food today due to a delicate tummy and a very tired brain!!
Todays food-
B: Nothing.
L: Yogurt. Grapes. Satsuma. Special K chewy bar hexB.
D: Quavers 4.5syns. Banana.
Snacks: Chocolate biscuit from an M&S selection approx 2.5syns (around 50kcal). Teeny slice of chocolate cake (and I scraped off the buttercream) approx 5syns?? Someones birthday in the office and I couldn't say no...
Drinks: Starbucks medium skinny caramel latte (skimmed milk hexA and syrup 3syns). 1 x cup of tea (sweetener and dash of skimmed milk 0.5syn) Water.
Syn Total- 14.5syns
Caught out by the office treats! It could have been worse though as they bought in a box of Krispy Kreems! I was drooling at the sight of them (even though after a mouthful I usually stop due to sweetness overload!!)

Just an update about the work situation.
Had a meeting with the department manager about the complaint I put in about my team leader last week- he wants us to try and resolve our differences. I said I would give it a bedding period to try and see improvements... Not to sound defeatist but I'm not holding much hope!
Ironically things have improved since I actually wrote the complaint without my team leader being told about my grievances. But its still the flippant remarks that need to be addressed- I'm not willing to be discriminated against because I work part time and have a family!
Todays food-
B: Nothing.
L: Yogurt. Fruit salad (pear, grapes, apple and kiwi) Space raiders 3syns. Banana.
D: 2 x tuna melt (60g WM bread hexB, tuna mixed with 3tbsp lighter than light mayo 1.5syns topped with 25g reduced fat cheddar 4syns)
Snacks: Banana. Yogurt. Satsuma. M&S chocolate biscuit 2.5syns.
Drinks: Starbucks medium skinny caramel latte (skimmed milk hexA and syrup 3syns) 1 x cup of tea (sweetener and dash of skimmed milk 0.5syn) Water.

Really enjoyed my late dinner- really fancied it and it didn't disappoint! If I had more syns to use I'd have seconds!!

Glad things have improved slightly- even if its coincidental! Hopefully you will be able to resolve things- it's so awkward when you work with people you don't like. Fortunately i only have to work with OH really, but I don't always like him haha.
Mm tuna melt- I haven't had one for ages! I like how we get a good chunk of cheese for a Hexa, it goes quite far on things like that/pasta. X
