I really need to get myself some frylight. I forgot to pick it up at tesco yesterday... Gggrrrr!!

There seems to be a couple of different ones, is one better than the other? Olive oil, sunflower or the butter one??

What do you recommend?
 
I prefer the olive oil one.. it's in the green packaging. However, I don't really like any of them they seem to me to have a weird smell that puts me off wanting to put it in my body haha! But other people rave about them and I did find the olive oil one the best. I use oil spay that is 2cals a spray, I only syn it after 10 sprays as 1 syn, but as I'm rarely cooking for just me it gets spread out haha
 
Hope your day is going ok hun? xxxx
 
Today has gone well. It's busy one. Our usual baby group this morning (where I avoided the biscuits :D)

Then this afternoon I've made a syn free salsa to go with our fajitas for dinner this evening. Unfortunately I hadn't realised quite how many syns were in our normal wraps and its too late to get different ones now :mad:!!!.... so tonights dinner will be a little naughty (im not sure only having one will be enough for a main meal)

Anyway the salsa turned out amazingly :cool:, I made loads, so I've blended the rest down (using the babies blender) to use as a pasta sauce for meatball pasta on Friday..... I havnt decided yet whether it will keep in the fridge untill then or need to go in the freezer for a couple of days o_O

I've been enjoying the weather.... it's been so hot here, I'm very thankfull to be on matty leave! Nothing better than being out in the garden with a good book working on a bit of a tab!

How you geting on Jules.... I keep meaning to look if you have a diary here... but I'm so forgetfull :oops:
 
Well done on avoiding the biscuits.... i will be doing the same on thurs

I also need to find some low syn wraps as love fajitas too.

I have only been back on plan for 4 days but hopefully I can stay on track....fingers crossed

Loss of 4lbs

I'm dead chuffed :D I feel like I've done really well this week.
Aims for the week ahead: use healthy extras each day, use syns more evenly through out the week (rather than having very few on one day and too many another.)

Unofficial week 1 = -1 lb (*)
Unofficial week 2 = -4lbs :)

Thanks jules :D

I promised myself I'd be good today but now I've realised it's "pasta wine Friday" eekk!.... Fridays bottle of red wine is the one thing I'm really struggling to give up.... It's become our tradition for the husband and I to open a bottle of wine over some spicy pasta once the baby has gone to bed on a friday :oops: I'll really struggle to stick with just one glass!!

On the plus side.... My referral came through the post today. So come Thursday I can go to my local group :woohoo:
On the letter it said my welcome pack has been sent to my work place, as I'm on maternity leave, this is a bit of a pain! I've asked the admin to let me know when it arrives. Hopefully it will be before Thursday so I can get on with things properly :cool:
