[zoe302]

My day so far.....

B'Fast-More french toast (hex B) with quark and Jam (1syn) with lots of strawberries. Side of a lovely coffee with sweetner and milk (hexA)
Snack-Apple and Cherries with a coffee (milk from hexA)
Another snack-French Fries (4 syns)
Lunch-Have made a big pit of curry for lunch and dinner, for lunch I had a small bowl because it is WI so will leave loads for after
It had the following in it
1 green peeper
1 onion
1 courgette
5 asparagus spears
2 chillis
2 cloves of garlic
lots of curry powder, cumin, garam masala, ginger ets for flavour.
a tin of chopped toms
A handful of pasta
A handful of red split lentils.

Hoping that by adding in the little bit of pasta and lentils I wont have LOADS of rice with it.


So I will have that later after WI, between now and 7 I will try to just stick to fruit and maybe some FF yoghurt. Also another coffee, try to fill me up without weighing me down lol.....really want that 3 pounds off!!

Any hints for filling but light foods, more than welcome xxx

Hi all, well I had my dinner all ready and I am still absolutely stuffed.
B'Fast- 3xScan bran (HexB) with quark, Jam(2syns) and lots of strawberries and raspberries
Snack-2xScan bran with quark and left over jam from breakfast with the last of the raspberries and strawberries.
Lunch-More of the sausage casserole from last night
Snack-Coffee with milk from Hex A and sweetners
Dinner-Some pasta with Last of the sausage casserole.


Still stuffed, but have enough milk for a few more coffees so I suspect I will squeeze them in, and maybe something which is a little delicious-although at the minute I cant imagine putting anything else in my belly.

OH I forgot to say I only figured out on mOnday that peas and sweetcorn, are NOT NOT NOT superfree's woe is me as I have been using these a lot to help bulk out my meals-S**T!!! So need to come up with something else so do instead. At least they are free so not too bad!

Rant over-just cant believe i WAS so stupid!!! Doh

Ah well we live and learn. Any suggestions for something nice but which is also very low in syns-and that I may have in my house?? Think I may have a choc hob nob with my coffee later for 4.5 syns, bringing me too 6.5. Then if I am hungry later will maybe have an apple then possibly some french fries to bring it to 10.5 lol. Although this depends on hunger which is 0 now

What about meringue nests hun? They are cheap and only 2.5 syns (depending on where you get them from) ... yummy with strawbs/raspberries etc and some squirty cream (1 syn) or yogurt

 

[zoe302]

Oh I may have to get some on next shopping trip!! yummy!

PS still can only put up one sticker on my signature, it is doing my bap in!!!

Have this one on me, lol

Copy this, Click on the right of your 1/2 stone sticker then paste

If it doesn't work contact Pierce the Minimins tech guy xx

I have lots of treatsize chocs in, does that help? You know, the multibags, my fav is crunchies & buttons (4.0syns). Also mikado and jumbo caramel snack a jacks.

I bulk out my meals with courgettes, leeks, scallions and carrots. Though things like kohl rabi etc are also good.

 

[zoe302]

Hi all

Ended up having two coffees

Then some french fries, 4 syns which put me to 6.

Then a granny smith and some strawberries-shared punnet with OH

So I am definately stuffed and cant even fathom having a choc hob nob.....so will just watch bones then bed! Oh yeah!!

 

[zoe302]

Hello everyone-been a weird couple of days. Went to my friends house on Thursday and her waters broke-lol. So I stayed there for a while then brought her daughter and doggie home to look after. As a result I dont have a clue what I really ate that day but I can tell you the horrible truth about Friday

SO here goes................................
B'fast-Started well with a whole punnet of strawberries, with 28g of special K sustain(Hex B) with half a big tub of FF nat Yog on top
Also a coffee with skimmed milk (hexA)
Snack-Pear, Apple and another apple
Lunch-Leftover dinner from the night before, which was pasta with broccoli, BNS and in a passata sauce-quick and easy to make on the thursday whilst babysitting
Snack-French Fries with a cofffee (4syns for crisps)
Dinner-A sort of very odd take on spag bog made with Quorn peppered steaks, peppers, onions carrots and passata, served with boiled rice. Was delish!!

So you are thinking so far so good-why yes it was, until I decided to 'wet the babies head'' oops!!! at times like this I wished I liked spirits, but no I have to be a beer hound to i HAD 4 BEERS which is 24 syns FFS so after a good day I had 28 syns Crap!!
But!!!!!!!!!!!!!! everytime I drink i GET THE NIBBLES, BUT YAY me last night I boiled some paste and had the second serving from the dinner I made, instead of eating lots of crisps and choc and pizza like I normally would!!


So ultimately BAD NAUGHTY ZOE for having 28 syns but YAY ZOE WELL DONE for not pigging out and saying "ah well I have already gone over syns I may as well go really over" which is the
normal attitude.

The other good thing is I feel like crap this morning-yuck, so has put me off doing it again for a while. But I am feeling very bunged up this morning and have a scratchy throat better not be getting something, as I am off Tuesday Wednesday Thursday-which woukd be typical!

Anyway-I will stop boring you xxxx

Laters xxxxxxx

First off, congratulations to your friend!

Yeah, you didn't want to have 28 syns, but like you said, imagine how much worse it could have been!? I'm a sucker for the chinese when i've had a few. So 10 deep friend chicken balls in sweet and sour sauce and egg fried rice is shockingly high in syns. You didn't go down that route which is fantastic. You realised where it could be headed and you were proactive rather than just caving in to the munchies - that's brilliant, well done you
