My consultant sends out text reminders as well as most of us including myself are not on Facebook

The cous cous balls were so so easy

2 packets of Ainsley Harriot cous cous made up with water wait to cool add 1 to 2 eggs

Mix together shape into balls and bake for about 1 hour on 120 to dry them out turn them after half an hour or so

Brownies in tin 2 dips spicy bean and salmon cous cous balls and coffee meringues and chocolate meringues

I have another batch of cous cous balls in the oven and I'm done

All low syn or syn free

All looks very nice.
I think my c is just very disorganised!! I also think many members will weigh and not stay. That's the thing about morning meetings, people are busy; especially this time of the year.

 

[Jaffa Cake]

Ours isn't a proper class no IMAGE therapy just weigh and go or weigh and stay to party

It's open weigh for 1.5 hours same as next week but obviously no party next week

I am properly aching now as I really did too much today and too much standing.

Not really eaten properly either just been picking at what I've made

 

[janetelizabeth]

I'm tired too...been a long day and to be honest I'm not taking anything tomorrow except the gifts for c & two members of the social team. I'm having a family problem over Christmas day and that is wearying too.

Time to put your feet up!

Due to cooking and baking today I've picked at a lot of food but it's all SW friendly

Banana
A few cous cous balls - free
Couple of brownies maybe 0.5 syn as whole mixture is 5 syns and I cut it up into loads of pieces
Meringues the coffe ones are Syn free the chocolate ones 4 is 1 syn I think

Fruit salad
Popcorn 5 syns
Jelly sweets 3 syns

Celeriac soup Wholemeal rolls hex b x 2
3 hovis biscuits 9 syns

Total 22 syns but a real guess

 

[janetelizabeth]

So the syns aren't really coming from the SW cooking...just some extras. Oh well...consumed now so move on. Always amazes me how high biscuits are...I've been gaily saying the number of biscuits I've had....they were actually waitrose shortbread fingers...just checked: 5.5 EACH! Oops!

 

[Jaffa Cake]

Nope syns all from snacking as not a proper meal today

 

[janetelizabeth]

Oh well, another day today.
Hope you have a good weigh in later.

 

[Jaffa Cake]

Thank you. I've not weighed in this morning

 

[janetelizabeth]

Good, less stress for you! Will be checking to see how you did...I had a STS.

 

[Jaffa Cake]

Fab news

I never weighed this time last year so this is new territory !

 

[janetelizabeth]

I'm sure you'll be fine too.

 

[janetelizabeth]

How's work going today...everyone in the festive 'mood' ?

 

[Jaffa Cake]

I also had a sts which I'm thrilled with so 0.5lb under target

 

[janetelizabeth]

oh :wow: Jaffa!! That is brilliant!! well done you!! :bighug:

 

[Jaffa Cake]

Thank you I know I won't be saying the same next week

My food went down well but I have loads left so that's lunch sorted tomorrow as dinner is our usual completely non sw friendly full cheese platter

 

[janetelizabeth]

Ha ha...guess who ate the box of florentines after lunch? And very nice they were too!

 

[Jaffa Cake]

Mmmmmm

 

[janetelizabeth]

Just going to list my food today...not at all SW friendly but sooo good!

 

[Jaffa Cake]

Ha ha mine was sw friendly as I only really ate food at the taster night and I was super good before weigh in
The only bad things I've had today has been a couple of handfuls of cashew nuts and some chocolate
