Thanks for the nice comment!! Yes beans are synned on red days but not on green or extra easy day. And Aunt bessies yorkshire puds are only 1 syn... i found that info on here someone was asking as On slimming world website, they are 1 sin each and in the food directory, they are 2 and half sins but as the website is kept up-to-date it was thought to go with the website... so yes they are only 1 syn!!

Ok yesterday was a bad day for me.... I ended up eating a Nandos chicken burger and then a whole packet of popcorn at the cinema too!! To top it off today I put 2lbs on too so now im going to try and stick to this diet 100%... The only days I will go off this diet is when I go out for a good meal as I dont want to start hating going out for dinner!!
Ok well today is a mix to max & success express
Banana
Breakfast - Wheetabix and milk (HEX A&B)
Lunch - Mugshot
Packet of Monster munch (6 Syns)
Followed by a load of grapes
Tea - This is what I am currently cooking Chilli con carne (Kidney Beans HEXb) and instead of rice I am having grated Cauliflower (I know it sounds bad but my brother cooked it and he said its nice with it haha so im trying it tonight)
And following tea I am going to have a muller light yoghurt!
Also I am writing the list of exercises im doing too... Today I went for a 30 minute walk and then went on the nintendo wii for 20 minutes too!
