Bad Week Syn Values Required

[Moshiandindianasmum]

Hi,

I've had a bad week, I ended up having Pancakes with Lemon and Sugar on Tuesday and yesterday I had ginger and chocolate chip cookie from the Hilton Hotel and this morning I had a Choc au pain from the bakery :sigh:

Can anyone tell me how much damage I've done? I don't expect to lose any weight this week as result as my lunch consists of 7.5 syns each day :cry:

Thanks

well small pancakes are around 4 sy ns and the ones you make in a medium frying pan around around 7 syns.

sugar is like 1 syn a tsp i think.

cookie could be up to about 15 depending on the size and thickness.

and a pain au chocolat for the normal size i used to buy is 15 syns

Just curious why is your lunch 7.5 syns. I would never stick to the plan if half my syns went on lunch each day

Thanks, didn't think Pancakes would be that bad! Was half a pint of semi-skimmed milk, 1 egg and 4oz of plain flour. Looks like no more pancakes ever again for me.

I have a Pot Noodle at lunch as I don't have much time and end up eating at my desk. I was having fruit and yoghurt but got sick of it and I wanted something warm. I hate Mug Shots so they were out and the Noodles in a mug don't keep me going all day. Open to suggestions.......

Sorry if this post sounds negative but really struggling with SW at the moment and very close to quitting.

5 syns per once of flour and if your milk wasnt your hexa then thats another 6 syns

OMG there are so many other things you could be having instead and they would be so much better for you and more filling than a horrible processed pot noodle. It's just takes a bit of planning ahead but you could get a food flask and have soup, curries, stews, chilli etc. There are loads of threads on here packed with ideas so why no do a search and I'm sure you'll find things you like. It would give you another 6/7 syns a day to play with instead of wasting them on plastic noodles.

Thanks Circles

I'm going to try and come up with something I can have that doesn't involve Pot Noodles! I am bored of them as well so good time to be moving on. There must be something I can find that is syn free. I have a flask that I could put food in so I need to just organise myself and get back on track instead of feeling sorry for myself.

Thanks for the nudge in the right direction
