Monday 18th April
Another 1-9 shift today :sigh: Sometimes i wonder if i should have became a nurse, when i was training i couldnt think of any other job in the world that would be right for me. Now only 2 years down the line and i dont know lol! Maybe i just havent found the right nursing job yet.
Anyway! Todays diary:
B: quorn sausage and scrambled egg roll (HEB + 1 syn) FF yog Coffee (part hea)
I have to take to work: pesto (2 syn) and quark wmeal pasta, banana, FF yog and an alpen bar but still dont know if i can eat the alpen bar lol!
Hopefully just 3 syns for the day then
And will drink lots of water.
Edit: half a egg salad sandwich (heb + 1 syn for marg)
When I got home I was starving! Banana sandwich (heb 3) with flora light ( 1 syn)
Highlights hot choc (hea)
Nibbled on tomorrows pasta lol
Total syns today: 5

OOH that looks yummy. And not very synful at all. What I normally do with meals like that when I don't know is pick a fairly high syn value out of the air that would account for like a tablespoon of oil and a few other random bits like, say 10 syns. But I don't even think that would be 10 syns. Depends how safe you want to play it!

Well, the corn looks naked (as it's got a bit of butter on the side) so 0 for that
Did the salad have any dressing on?
The olives are definitely 1 syn for 8 olives
I'd suggest 2 syns for an olive oil dressing so 3 altogether! :clap:

Thanks guys!
LOL! No i didn't have the butter with my corn on the cob! It was nice though, Nandos chicken (which no one seems to know how synful, some people say its free others say its very bad!), olives (which i only had a couple of), salad, couscous, peppers, tomatoes! No dressing. Then i had half a bowl of the Low fay Yog. When i got home we had Bday cake!!! Nom nom nom!
I think i will say 20 syns for the whole evening
3 for the day so 23 syns
78 syns for the week so far

Gem_bear said:OH NO!! Weighed myself on my friends scales. Terrible mistake! I'm 6 pounds heavier on them than on mine! Freaking out
Oh Gem, it doesnt mean your any heavier though!! You have to go by your own scales. It's horrible, my mums scales are heavier than mine so I don't go anywhere near them!! And..... You look fab so don't worry!!!
