Morning cookie. Never had a subway salad have noticed a couple of times you have mentioned them in your blog. What's types do they do and roughly how many syns? Hope you have a good day and you look quite back on track!

Hello all, we've had a lazy morning, going to the pub for lunch mmm.
Persimmon is a fruit that tastes a little like a date/mango/apricot/melon thing, I quite like it.
Subway salads are good. The ham, plain chicken, turkey & veggie patties are free as are all the salad stuff except the olives. The dressings are syns though but the calories are listed so you can work out the syns. I have honey mustard (1.5) or sweet onion (2). They suit me as I struggle with too much bread, and I find them really tasty. I'd def recommend them.
We're going to Applewood Farm so I may have a roast dinner, I've been before they do the most amazing & biggest cakes I've ever seen. Not for me though, I've a scan bran cake ready for later on. It looks quite cold, wet n windy out so I'll wrap up. I'm so hungry
Anyway I'll take photo of food if I can and see you all later
Have a good day xxxx

Ooh I love mango, apricots and melon (though not so keen on dates!) so I'll have a look for that next time I do some shopping. You get so bored of the same old fruit don't you? Enjoy your meal out!

Large plate roast dinner at the pub. £6.35 for mine £8.35 for Brett as he went for the Mega Plate.
I left the Yorkshire pudding, roast potatoes & the roast parsnips, well Brett ate those except the parsnips. It was gorgeous I ate Turkey, ham, 3 new potatoes, tbsp mash, carrots & swede mash, cauliflower, green beans, mushy peas, onion gravy, tbsp sage & onion stuffing & tsp cranberry sauce. Xx

Oops I forgot the sprouts. Not bad I think I'm counting 7 syns to be in the safe side (0.5 for cranberry, 1 for gravy, 1 for stuffing & extra for any butter in the both mash) or should I count more syns? Either way it was gorgeous, I had a little bit out the Yorkshire pudding before Brett ate it, I loved it though but want to be good and besides still got tonight.
Was proud of Brett though he didn't have any desserts either so no extra temptations to deal with.
How's everyone's afternoon been? Xxx

Oh good luck for wi, feels weird saying it on a Monday, I like the sound of corn beef hash not had it for so long mmm
Hehe it feels weird getting weighed on a Monday but the good thing is after tonight I have 9 days to have a good crack at a loss for next week
I love hash if I make it I have to add dumplings to it for son he loves it. The boys have decided to have minced beef pies now so ill make the hash another night or for my lunch on Weds when theyre out at the pub. I may have burger n chips for tea tonight im starving lol x

Good morning, I'm still in bed but were getting up in a bit, going to do a little exercise, shop for dinner tomorrow, I fancy roast turkey after my nice lunch yesterday so I'll pick up a small crown from Iceland. Tonight were not doing anything at all, going to see what we fancy to drink later and still need to decide what to eat today.
To say I'm off work I'm not organised at all we've plenty of fruit and veg in, stuff in the freezer too but keep thinking its time to celebrate, so should we get a takeaway or should I do us a little buffet? Decisions decisions!
I'll have a ponder over a clementine xx
