Ooooh I'd do success express but its so complicated! Posted my day on the last page!
So today I got news that I won't see my OH for another 2 weeks. Totally not his fault and out of our control but it's got me really down.. I can't believe we have to go through this.. BLEH!!!
Breakfast : Weetabix, strawberries, banana, milk (Both Hexs)
Snack : Grapes and 6 syn chocolate
Lunch : Subway chicken salad with fat free sweet onion sauce (think this is free!) and can of coke zero.. Treated myself as I haven't had any other fizzy juice all week!
Dinner : beef stew of sorts, got lots of veggies in the freezer so trying to use them up! Had some with some peas for tea (2 syns for gravy) plus water and a ferrero roche for dessert 3.5 syns
Treated myself to an Aero mint hot chocolate for 5 syns as I have a few syns to play around with! Hoping it will keep the chocolate monster at bay!
Syns : 87.5/105

Good day everyone!
So I've been up and at em' early this morning and went to HIIT class again! Definitely better in the second week! Although, the lady trainer seems to prefer squats and push ups which isn't my kinda thing but I grumbled and got on with it!
Breakfast : Weetabix, Milk, Strawberries and banana - Both Hexs
Lunch : Yesterdays stew warmed up with some potatoes - 1 syn
Snack : Grapes and 3 syn chocolate
Dinner : Going out! So I went to an indian! For starters I had some side salad and a small taste of a sort of aloo gobi with some cauliflower in a very weird coating! Then I had a small serving of rice which had veggies through it and 3 tablespoons of different indian sauces. It was a buffet, but I didn't get dessert, no wine, only water! Going to call it 10 syns to account for all the extra oil in the sauces. It's not ideal as I have WI tomorrow morning. Wish me luck!
Syns : 101.5/105

Oh no! I'd hate that! I'd love to be able to go to group! I'm sure you will do fine anyway. I always weigh at home in the mornings as well!
I'm so unmotivated to do anything today. Can't wait till * week ends and I feel like I am back to normal!

Right, going to try and get my house in order this week and plan some meals! I usually never plan dinner which always leaves me in a mess!
Friday : Attempt to make Shepard's pie
Saturday : Grilled chicken breast with Aloo gobi
Sunday : Leftover Shepard's pie
Monday : Salmon, veggie rice with extra veg
Tuesday : Tomato soup (easy to reheat after work)
Wednesday: Leftover salmon in pasta with philly light
Thursday: ?
Trying to use up what is in my freezer and also, make one or two dishes that my OH doesn't like as he isn't here this week!

Thank you!! Food looking good for today- I'm getting a little but obsessed with weetabix with maple syrup on top (in fact I'm convinced it assisted in my loss this week because I had it a few times!)
Off to feurteventura on holiday- we went this time last year and it was lovely- can't wait! Hoping I dint put on too much whilst I'm there. Will make sensible choices food wise and drunk water during the day. I can't compromise drinks in the eve though!! Haha !

I'm actually not weetabix biggest fan but I eat it cos it's very high in fibre!
Oh your holiday sounds lovely, enjoy your drink!
I love cocktails but they are so high in syns they aren't really worth it! I'm struggling today tbh. I don't know if it's cos the OH isn't here or what but I'm feeling very down and I don't want to turn to food for comfort! I usually always do!
I need to go to the shop and get some superfree but I'm just not in the form.. Weird or what

Aw sorry you're feeling a bit down. It's horrible being apart from OH. Maybe get yourself some pampering goodies (face mask, nail polish etc) and have some 'me time' and read a book or a magazine or something!
It's hard not to turn to food and getting some superfree food in is mighty commendable!! You're a stronger woman than I am! Cadburys chocolate is always my comforter!! X

Well if you check my day above.. I did give into it! But you know, I could have not wrote it down and pretend it didn't happen but I'm not and instead I'm putting it in my diary and being accountable for it!

Hey today looks like this :
Brekkie : cup of tea, splash of milk (1/4 hex A)
Lunch : Went out so I went to somewhere that I could pick my ingredients! Had pasta, tomato sauce, courgette, mushrooms and peppers with a diet coke
Snack : Went to the cinema and had a sparkling water with the guilt free popcorn from M&S (7 syns). After, I stopped at costa and had a skinny latte which is normally 4.5 syns *I think*.. But I didn't drink half of it and I still have 3/4 of my HEX A so I think I'm gonna syn it at 2 syns
Dinner : Homemade shepard's pie with added veggies and potato topping.. 2 syns for gravy granules (I use the brown bisto box, more syns for your amount!)
Snack: Realised I didn't have my hex B today so I'm having 20 almonds! Yummy!
Syns for today : 11 syns
Syns for week : 65.5/105

Hey guys
im new to this and trying to lose a stone and a half before summer!! I was hoping someone could tell me how many syns are in asda chosen by you reduced calorie chicken sizzler and in the weight watchers frozen ready meals and also in oven pizza and oven chips.
I work in a shop doing different shifts so just wanting to know these as they are handy for me to make when I come home or when I am at work to put in microwave.
Thanks in advance.
