is plain chow mein just soft noodles? sorry for my ignorance ive just never had it before! if it is, itll be low syn but you will have to allow for oil xx

I have a syngapore Chow mein and count 9 syns for that on GReen and EE. Its like a special chow mein but only spicey . Then add a drizzle (very wee drizzle) of sweet an sour and count 3 syns. Really yummy too . I love spring rolls, but not sure of what the syns for those are, so haven't gone near them yet. x

thanks folks for your input.....
was really worried had gone off track until weigh - in 2day. lost 3.5lb so it might not have been that bad.x

I stick to having chinese once a week, just after weigh in so I don't have to count all the syns (I'm a one for sweet and sour chicken balls, lol). then I have all week to sort myself out. have never had a bad gain. started jan and have only had 3 gains so far totalling 2 lbs.
