Izzyhew's dizzy start to diet......

I have music on my ipod but I don't find it distracting enough, I prefer to have something to watch!

Here's tonights food, well the plate on the left is mine, and I have to live with the man who can demolish the contents of the plate on the right and still be hungry in an hour :rolleyes:

I should have taken a sideways shot, his was a mountain on a plate. I had 4 sausages, he had 6, both had the same courgette/pepper/onion/tomato with cheese on top (he for me) and parsnip chips, but he had a pile of pasta as well.

Twas good though, I also had a banana to add to my list today, and 2 bars for my HEb. but still sat on 7.5 syns and I think it's been a successful SE day :) will do normal EE tomorrow.
 
morning minis :)

I'm not feeling too good this morning :( I feel a bit bunged up (not poo fairy failure, nasal) I usually suffer from hay fever but it hasn't been bad this year, I'll need to start using my nasal inhaler though. I also have an unsettled tummy, but I think it's because I had my tea so late yesterday ..... I've thought in the past that doesn't really suit me but I think it's fairly conclusive now, which is going to be a bit of a problem when I want to do my running in the evening and don't want to eat a meal before that :( Maybe I'll need to have my tea sorted to eat as soon as I've finished the run, then shower afterwards. I dunno I will try some things. Or half my tea early and half late.... I dunno lol, I'll think of something.

No idea what I'm doing foodwise or anything elsewise today, but I'm supping a cup of peppermint tea to see if it settles my tum.
 
Hope you feel better as the day goes on hun. i have no clue about food today either :( just had a late brekki of fruit and alpen light bar as i have been all over town trying to get everything done, now have to go out agin in 10 mins to get my phone fixed:mad: not happy as is peeing down! xxx
 
I forgot to add my sausages so yesterdays syns were 9.5, which is fine I want to stay under 12 :)

feeling a bit better and have had the rest of my scan bran cake with quark, berries and maple syrup, 4.5 syns all in which is a lot for a breakfast but was scrummy.

I'll probably have more of yesterdays soup for lunch and maybe have a wholemeal roll (HE) with ham as well.

Troops want pasta bake which isn't good for me so I'm not sure what I'll be having for tea yet.

Going to take a heap of stuff along to the charity shop today, no more babies here so no point keeping things and I have asked around and no one needs most of what I have. I am keeping a bag of neutral stuff for a friend whose sister in law is due a baby in August tho.

Just ordered new weed control stuff for the garden as it needs redoing, I'll moan about that later as gotta go for now! xxx
 
Not bad at all, although could have done with being a little sweeter for me, so next time I will add some extra, I might even see what the syns would be and add some dried fruit, because this is really low syn. I decided to chop it into 10, because it's quite a large cake, so only 1/2 syn per slice. Tis yummy.

oooooooh looks yummy! xxx
 
it's not as nice as real carrot cake lol, and I think the quark is actually a bit tangy for the the topping, but I think if I add some dried fruit, extra sweetner and a bit more of the mixed spice, and have it with yoghurt it would be nice. I remember seeing a recipe on sw for egg custard which is free, I might have to look that up.....

I was so tired this afternoon I actually went for an hours sleep! (hubby was here for the kids)
 
Hi izzy cake looks good hun - I used total yogurt on mine the 0% stuff and add a little essence to it, it makes a lovely topping
 
Thanks texty, I'll look for that and give it another go, I can definitely see it has potential just needs tweaking.

The recipe on sw site I saw was for baked egg custard, and it wasn't free as I though but only 2.5 syns, I think it's only the milk that means it has syns tho so could be a HE. I might try it sometime just for the sake of it as I love custard, love the little pots of ambrosia but even the low fat ones were around 4.5 syns if I remember right, too much when you can munch a mullerlite for free!
 
I have been lazy about tea tonight, but haven't cheated. I had a mix of parsnip and potato chips cooked the sw way, with 2 pickled eggs and beans. Going to have a yog too.

Then bit of a chill and bed for me, got the doctors again tomorrow to have my knee checked over and discuss all my other tests.
 
thanks, pretty sure it will be fine. Fairly sure it will be IBS, not sure about my knee tho!

Going to try for another SE day tomorrow. Still got soup so that will do for lunch, and my usual fruity breakfast, just need to plan something suitable for tea at night.

Off for snoozing now, sorry to be missing the rest of your party!
