well I was going to be good but my oh has just come home with a hauge Thorntons egg filled with treats. I don't know whether to jump for joy or cry. He said I deserve it cos I've been good but part of me feels he's sabotaging me even though I think Its a alovely thought. Am I the only one who feels like that?
To have chocolate egg or not to have chocolate egg.....

Louisedan I totally know what you mean...I have just devoured a mini Lindt bunny (13.5 syns) and feel absolutely rotten now. I think when I left work yesterday for the weekend I just unhooked my jaw because people have given me all this chocolate and wine! I would suggest having a little bit and putting the rest away for another day but if you're anything like me that is IMPOSSIBLE!

I've been given a Green & Black's milk chocolate egg. I've managed to give away anything I've been given but this was from family so I worked out the syns... 51 syns!!
I'm so glad I'm not usually a chocolate eater! I'm going to have to get some nice, accurate digital kitchen scales I think. Even half would be 25.5 syns, so I can't even chop it in in half!
I'm determined to have some though...

My OH and I decided that instead of having an Easter egg that we would have small popcorn when we went to the cinema, and a small bag of the pic and mix. Cos we went to see Clash of the Titans. I always think that Easter is too commercialised and the eggs aren't worth the chocolate that's in them, so this was our compromise. I also had a creme egg, cos I LOVE them! lol

I have pigged out so much this week. However, got a syn free picnic and a long walk around the park tomorrow to get back on plan. I admire those of you who have synned your eggs (I couldnt bring myself to lol) I've given up fried foods and almost all fatty things and it doesnt bother me one jot. I am however a chocoholic, and it's easter and therefore I shall eat ( and eat and eat and eat) Feel sick as a dog now though - that'll teach me lol
Still, a new week tomorrow so I'll start as I mean to go on then. Back to work, back to the gym and back to normality

My egg is a Thorntons one too. What I have done is had the egg part as part of my flexable syns and saved the chocs to space out during the week.
It's not really sabotaging. All slimming clubs expect members to treat themselves at Easter, birthdays, and Christmas. Some branches will even allow for a pound gain. My advice is to allow for the egg with Flexable syns (if your egg is like my mine, you are looking at 53 syns for the whole egg which spaced over two days isn't so shocking flexable wise) and then use the chocs (truffles are 3.5 syns but the moments are 2 syns) over the week and aim for a STS this week rather than a loss.
LOL! Was it worth it?
I got a Cadbury's Creme Egg as an Easter Treat - I told people I didn't want chocolate but my mum (bless her) said one little egg wouldn't do much harm. At 8.5 syns it's quite a lot for a little thing but I'm going to keep hold of it for now and use in my syns when I need a chocolate fix.

skinny minny here I come!
My OH got me 5 different things from marks and spencer for easter eggs! I had a bad day yesterday with eating out for lunch, and 3 hot cross buns I thought it'd be best for me to leave them for now as I don't want to sabotage my weight too much, and when it comes to chocolate, once i start I don't stop, so may even leave them till next sunday after weigh in!!

I'm exactly the same - gained 1/2lb last week so stayed on track except for 1 chocolate button my granddaughter forced me to eat............this is the same granddaughter that said to me a couple of months ago " how come you're always on a diet but you never look any different?" out of the mouths of babes hey lol!!
