Iambe's Good Things - Attempt 2!

[Iambe]

Awww thanks Sarah. I have to be organised unfortunately, I tend to go totally off the rails if I'm not. Though I haven't done my meal plan for this week yet and I've been alright today. Been a bit crazy and I'm now off to the eye hospital!

Brekkie
Work brekkie
1 slice bacon (fat removed)
Mushrooms
Beans
Tomato
HEB Toast

Lunch
Chicken breast
Salad
Mayo (2 syns)
HEA Babybel

Dinner
Trago lounge
Balsamic ham with bubble and squeak and poached eggs.
Asked them to hold the parsley sauce and removed all the fat from the ham. It was sooooo lovely but there was fat in the bubble and squeak and fried sooooo (10 syns) is the estimate.

12 syns in total but it was such a good meal. I'm very happy as I got on the scales this morning and it was a lovely surprise! Looking forward to the proper weigh in on Wednesday!

BLOODY LOVELY! It wasn't planned but it was sooooo yummy! I really feel like the eating side of things is cracked as long as I can sort myself out in the 'can't be arsed, self indulgent moments'. My aunt is in hospital and is very seriously ill, we found out last night and it was close on my doing something very naughty today but I seem to have avoided it. Fingers crossed I'm ok.
