Hi everyone!!
the OH has gone back home now, so i have 3 days to be super strict to get a bit of a better loss this week!!
Having a GREEN day today!
Had a very rushed morning, so just had 2 of the new hifi light chocolate and caramel bars (YUM!!) and a plum early on, then got some porridge whilst i was out, using an A and B choice. Then whilst at my lesson, almost falling asleep i wanted a coffee, but the only thing availible quickly was the starbucks doubleshot which cost me 7 syns
went to tescos on my way home, planning some nice low fat supernoodles for lunch.....they had none, so i just got fruit! Lunch ended up being a uncle ben's rice time curry flavour for 4.5 syns (Total syns so far: 11.5!) not planning any more today, eating grapes and considering something to do with pasta for tea! x

Morning all!!
Today's the late day of lessons, don't finish until 7pm :sigh: having a red day today!!
i've had a big brunch because i didn't have anything to make for lunch really. fry-up yum yum!! 3 tesco light choices sausages (3), 3 rashers of the low-fat bacon, 2 eggs and a dollop of BBQ sauce (1) YUM!!
still got my Healthy extras, and for tea i've got cottage pie (which was pre-made and has been sitting in the freezer for 2 weeks!!) which i think uses a B choice, may be a bit extra, can't remember but will update anyways!!
Had lots of grapes and an orange as well as a muller light vanilla and chocolate, with a 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon in it. It tastes quite nice actually! i do get a bit bored of the muller lights sometimes, so its a nice change!! i really hope it works!! :cross:
anyway, have a good day everyone!! x

weigh-in tomorrow!
so tomorrow is weigh-in day
, i'm praying for a 2lb loss to take me to my first half stone award! 
although i am a bit worried.
I have to admit, i tried my best to stick to plan as much as possible whilst the OH was over, but....there was a bit of icecream eaten over the weekend down to the weather.....although when it's hot i tend not to eat as much, and i've been very good since monday....so i'm hoping that i've done enough to get a small loss!
will let you know how i get on tomorrow!!! wish me luck!! :fingerscrossed: x

I have a question actually, if anyone can help.
A Starbucks grande skinny caramel macchiato is 9 1/2 syns. However, if i count the milk as an A choice, that knocks off 6 syns, which i know people do, and i have done in the past BUT!! if i get it with sugar free syrup (which is syn-free) then how many syns would it be? I guessed that if i worked it out, then the espresso is free, the milk is A, the syrup is free, and the only syns would be the sauce on top, which i looked up on their website, and works out at just half a syn.
SO, my question is.....does that make sense? or am i just making excuses to have this as an almost free drink, and should i just stick to just counting the milk and keep it at 3 1/2 syns with the normal syrup???
sorry if this confuses anyone!! xx

thankyou!! i'll ask my consultant on thursday aswell, but i'll count it anyway (might as well have had the normal syrup! )
evening update!!
went back to the grad fair to get my cv checked, very stressful and led to another pint (9). for lunch i had a mcdonald's grilled chicken salad (no dressing=free??- i hope!!) went for the coffee (3.5ish) and for tea i rummages through the cupboards and fridge for free foods and ended up with this:
Chicken, bacon, mushroom, onion and pepper stirfry with garlic soy sauce and a chicken oxo cube....surprisingly tasty!! (pic on its way!)
so total syns for today: 14.5! x
