Anyway, lets just say it did not agree with me & having seen my lunch again about a hour after eating i'm not sure i really need to syn anything. But i will just to be on the safe side. I also doubt i will eat tonight as still do not feel right at all.

Thanks! Taken me SO long - i've been hovering around the 13st 11 mark for about 2 months so its a relief to get a (for me) big loss in the book finally.

Frittata is amazing!
I slice up some new potatoes and microwave in water for 10 mins.
Meanwhile in a frying pan i cook up all my superfree veg - i usually do mushrooms, onion, peppers, spinach, courgette &
Tomato. Add some ex lean bacon chopped up as well if not on a green day. Then add the potato in.
Pour over 6 beaten eggs and mix in.
I then reduce the heat slightly Leave for about 10 mins. Then put under the grill to brown the top.
In my frying pan it makes 4 big portions.

Parma ham- i buy the really thin stuff from waitrose or sainsburys - on synsonline its 1 syn for 28g or 1/2 a syn a slice. I might be wrong and under synning it though! First time i've eaten it since starting SW.
