Hi ya.
I'll go through each day.

Tuesday - No HEB choice ( you can have 1 A and 1 B on EE)
I'd have wanted something more substantial for brekfast. (maybe 2x alpen light bars as your HEB)
could have done with some superfree with potato

Wednesday
Again no HEB, but as you said you used oil you can have 1 TBSP as a HEB so knocking 6 syns off the total of 33.
Again remember on EE your meant to have 1/3 superfree at each meal.
There are lots of low syn salad dressings ( some are FREE) that would help

Thursday
again No HEB. What is Tablet for 10syns?
and need more superfree.

Friday - much the same.

Try to vary what you have each day, your metabolism works best when you keep it on its toes.
Lots of superfree ( not just free)
and hunt about for the low syn things like salad dressing to help keep the syns down. If you think you there isnt anything else you'd use your syns on then by all means keep the salad dressings.

Thank you for your reply. I will hopefully start adding HEX b on to my diet. Tablet is a scottish treat like fudge, made from lots of butter and sugar.

For EE to work properly you need to make sure that every meal you have has 1/3rd superfree. It doesnt look like this is happening.
Also make sure you are having your healthy extras and dont be afraid to eat proper meals eg breakfast.
