EATING OUTT!

[lauren7769]

Weekends are my biggest weakness when dieting. I weigh on Fridays and use all my syns on the weekend and manage to eat free foods through the week.

I tend to eat out a lot on the weekend as I spend time with my family and boyfriend who all want to eat out and get take away. I was wondering what the best option is for eating out, where are the best places to eat and if having Chinese what's the best option?

I don't have the slimming work syns books to not sure how many syns are in take away etc.

Thankss

Hi Lauren,

Have a look at the eating out sub forum. There are loads of threads and great ideas on there that will answer your questions.

There are a few things from Chinese that are free. Plain Rice and noodles are free on Extra Easy. Boring I know but it's something. According to my Food Op book it says 5 prawn crackers are only 1.5 Syns. I wish I knew this a few weeks ago! Beef in black bean sauce, 5 Syns. Steer clear of sweet and sour chicken balls! 17.5 Syns or 25 Syns on Green. Duck pancake = 30 Syns. Ouch.

Hope this helps

Have fun

I always opt for chicken chow mein at 7 syns, however you do have to be careful on portion size!! X

Any one know syns in curry sauce, my weakness!

Me too Lauren, did you find out the syn value of curry sauce?

What kind of portion size for the chow mein?
