Gobolino's Food Diary - converted to ww now!
- Thread starter gobolino
- Start date
Saturday:
Going out tonight for food and drinks at a local pub. I'm planning on having jacket, cheese (HA HA ?) and beans with a salad, which I know is boring for a night out, but at least I can save my syns for a drink.
B- HB flapjack (thanks to cocktail princess in the recipe section), yog, banana
D- red lentil curry with brown rice, HB flapjack
T- jacket, cheese (HA HA), beans and salad, brandy (4syns per 35ml, will keep count of how many)
I've saved 13syns from the past few days, plus 15 for today and will possibly use some of the next few days on our night out too

Hello
Well I dont feel like I've been around too much this week either! Our night out was lovely thanks.
Here's my food for the weekend:

drinks - 1.5 brandys (4syns per 35ml, so 6syns), 2 x 250ml glasses of red wine (17syns)
(tea was good, I didnt take a chance on having cheese with it though as I would have no idea how much cheese they would use. On the down side hubby ordered a salad and forgot to mention 'no dressing', so I had to pick at the bits of salad with no dressing!)
Total 26 syns
Sun
B- wholemeal bread (HB+2syns), quorn sausages, egg, flapjack (HB)
D- cabbage, broccoli, peas, roast carrot, sweet potato and normal potato (in fry light), veg gravy (1syn), stuffing (6 syns)

Looks like you have had a good week I do think skipping the cheese was a good idea.
I am having a hungry day today too, monday is one of my hardest days !

I think part of the monday is its the beginning of the week and the other part is its the day before weigh in! So far, I'm on plan but eating lots of food:
B-1/3rd of a large pasta quiche, nectarine, 2 flapjacks (HB HB) (I'm not sure these should strictly be counted as a HB as the fruit is chopped and then put in the oven and as such would be considered as syns..... I'm not making them again)
snack- 1/2 a banana and 2 scan bran (1 as part of the HB oats in flapjack +1 as 1syn), milk in tea (HA), 2 apples, 2 plums, 1 mini baby bel (1/2HA)
D- red lentil and butternut squash curry with brown rice, vlf yog
T- quorn bolognese, tablespoons of leftover rice, 14g cheese (1/2HA), banana, 142g custard (5.5syns), 71g custard (3 syns)
Total 9.5syns
Class- Body Jam (this was something new for me and a bit of a laugh!)
As long as I stick to plan today I dont really care if I eat alot! I'll just try to steer myself to superfree foods. What about you, any tacticts for dealing with your hungry monday ?

)Well - I lost a pound I'm pleased with that as TOTM is imminent. I've had 2 mars ice creams as a treat. I've had a thumping head ache all evening through class so I attacked the ice creams when I came home. On the plus point, no HiFi over indulgence. A new week starts tomorrow and I'd like to have a good one

wow that does look good !
Thanks! I'm doing your trick of planning a few less syns each day or at least some days, so I have a few to treat myself if I want to
Today, I have a challenge ahead. I'm going to make apple crumble for my hubby and here are the challenges:
1. Not to eat any of the crumble mixture (not even a spoonful!) DONE!
2. Not to have any of the finished crumble One crumble gone, one left in the fridge. So I'm half way through challenge No.2
3. To make some portions of HB stewed apple, all measured and SW friendly (if I need the crumble effect I'll crumble a digestive over for 3syns!) DONE!
4. To really enjoy this with some custard made with skimmed milk Might actually have this with some lemony vlf fromage frais/phillidelphia light mix (3syns per portion) instead, we'll see
I'm determined to do this, but if I've commited to it on here I'm going to be even more determined.
I'll report back!
