Syn free onion bhajis? Sounds great :) Your food plan looks great!
Slimming world chinese?! AMAZING! I so want a place near me to do so! Curly Wurly's a good tip, I've needed an alternative to crunchies (9 Syns)

Also in this weather a frozen banana, tastes just like banana ice lolly- if you've run out of syns :)

Just took my onion bhajis out of the oven and had a sneaky taste, they are lovely! Hoping they will take the craving for cinema popcorn off me later :sigh:
 
Weigh In this evening :ashamed0005: here's hoping I'll be back with good news later !

Going out for lunch today, the place I'm going to actually has an approved SW menu though so I should be fine :)

Hope everyone has a great day :)

Craving chocolate like mad at the min, had my Curly Wurly, soooo hard not to go to the press for a biccie! :sigh:
 
Aaagghh help, I'm having a baaaad day, have a really bad headache and I'm craving chocolate like mad, just took some pain killers so hoping it'll wear off! so far today I've had:

2 x Weetabix (hexb) with milk from allowance, and a sliced banana

Lunch:
Bowl of speed soup, followed by a fruit salad of pear, melon, plums and strawberries

Feeling awful right now, just craving junk, I've just made some SW chips and they're almost ready, will have these and some fruit and a Mullerlight, hoping I don't get tempted to go to the bold press !!! Trying to save my syns for tonight as I have a friend coming over for drinks ... :wave_cry:
 
Hope you feel better fast. May I suggest some diet coke/pepsie etc to ease the craving?

Enjoy your wine tonight.
Good luck and best wishes.

Hi again everyone :)

Thank crunchie it's Friday ... or not .... weekends are always so hard for me :( and feeling so mad at myself, haven't been to the gym once this week (time of the month and feeling rotten) - but have been out walking the dogs everyday. Actually starting to look forward to being back at work soon, I'm finding it really hard to keep myself busy sitting in the house when I know that the biscuit tin isn't too far away :mad:

So far today I've had 2 slices wholemeal bread with 2tsp Nutella (3syns), and a cup of tea; for lunch I had my leftover syn free Cottage Pie with half a melon and some strawberries, sprinkled with some Canderel (for my sweet fix)!! Not sure what to have for dinner :confused:

Going to the supermarket in a bit so will see what I can pick up, will definitely be getting some Quark so that I can make my syn free cake, ohhh yum can't wait :)

Hope everyone's having a good day!
 
Breakfast: 2 x pieces wholemeal bread (hexb), toasted with Nutella (3 syns), tea with milk from allowance.

Lunch: SW Cottage Pie (syn free), and half a melon with some strawberries, sprinkled with Canderel sweetner.

Snack: SW Syn Free Roulade, cup of coffee

Dinner: SW chips with Uncle Ben's Rice Time Medium Curry (4.5 syns?) Mullerlight with fruit salad of melon, apple, banana and strawberries.

Syns: Rice Time (4.5); Nutella (3)

Total Syns: 7.5 :eek:

The Uncle Ben's curry wasn't that nice :jelous: so didn't eat all of it. However, I've heard that the Sweet and Sour flavour rice pot is syn free so will be trying that next time! :D Off for a walk with the dogs now, that is a workout in itself!
 
Where did you get the reciepe for syn free roulade?
