Emily's Journey to a Jawline - including food pics!

ahh- sweet of you to remember Em. Had a fab time thanks and haven't stopped gorging yet :D
 
I'm not surprised, hope you're enjoying it all! :D

Today has been hokay. Found out I'm not working tomorrow either (my manager is going through some stuff at the moment), so I shan't be working until Monday now. I am determined to not sit around on my butt all day though! I'mma go walking and do 30 minutes of crazy dancing. I'll look awesome.

Got weigh in at 11.30am in the morning. I'm fully convinced that I'm going to lose a 1lb at most this week, but I've just gotta suck it up and carry on. I definitely need to do more exercise, I also think I'm due on my 'star week'. That'll be a barrel of fun!

Anywho, here's an up to date version of todays foodage, with a sloppy looking dinner pic. Woohoo.

Day 20: Extra easy

Banana
Left over honey and mustard chicken, rice, swede and carrots (2 syns)
Hifi bar (hexb)
Chicken, swede, carrots, sprouts, roast potatoes and parsnips with gravy (3 syns)
2 x baby bel lights (2/3 hexa)
Cup of tea with milk (1/3 hexa)
Bowl of strawberries and raspberries with a tiny bit of white chocolate options mixed with quark (1 syn)

Total syns: 7

Not feeling guilty about using my syns up. Oh no no! As long as I keep them under 10, I'mma relax a bit. In this for the long haul so I might as well enjoy it.

Bubble and squeak with half a tin of sainsburys stewed steak
Bowl of raspberries and strawberries
Some sort of pasta for dinner, not sure what yet!

So happy! :D

Wow that is fantastic!
 
Thank you both! Fingers crossed I get my 1 stone award next week and I can book my first achievement tattoo. :cool:

Just finished my dinner, little bit ashamed. It was MASSIVE. I'm so super stuffed. I really enjoyed it though, ended up making pasta with a really rich garlic and basil bolognese. I don't mind having a meal like that once a week but I definitely couldn't do it every day. Didn't have one third superfree either, but there were plenty of tomatoes and huge chunks of flat mushroom. Used my hexa cheese on top. Looking forward to my mock cheesecake for dessert!

Because my dinner was syn free, I'm going to have an extra hifi bar for 3 syns to bring my total up to 5.

*punches the air, breakfast club style*
 
Thanks Lindsay. It was really good actually, better than I was expecting. I don't think I would melt the hifi bar next time, just crumble it up! I think using frozen strawberries helped because they released some tasty syrup like sauce as they defrosted.

Here's a pic!

Just changed the syn values on my meals for todays, to be honest, I didn't weigh out my gravy ingredients properly, and it's better to guess too much than too little! Aside from the uber high syns, it was AMAZING. I didn't take a pic because we had a lot of people here, but t'was super tasty.

I've also been playing just dance all evening on the wii, which made me fully aware of how unfit I currently am! It's a lot of fun though, even if I do look like an absolute chump whilst I'm doing it. :rolleyes:

I also went shopping and got some ingredients for meals this week. I bought some tofu, so I'm going to try and do some healthy baked asian tofu this week! We're also going to have a tapas night on tuesday, can't wait! x
