Yeh it's to easy to forget to syn little bits and pieces or guess portions I used to just guess but now I usually measure my HEs still have to guess syns for some things though! X

I might have to get sw scales n measure mine.

I'm so anal, I count everything but its surprising how it all mounts up! X

I think I need to. I used to in the beginning. Probably why it's slowed down!

Its surprising how they mount up if you don't keep track, so keep writing it down & I'm sure you will get used to doing it x

I should really get back into the habit of weighing everything again too. Usually it's just cheese or the odd bowl of branflakes and I just know how much a HE looks like from when I did weigh.

I also don't measure my milk but that's because I know I hardly take any milk in my cereal/tea and kara milk is something crazy like 400ml for a hea which is loads I struggle to use half of that on a day that has lots of tea! X

 

[lilprincessvic]

If im been honest i have never weighed but thats because I always used to use my hexb on bread and dont use my hexa. but trying to change that. Been having cereal as a treat at night n stuff like that so maybe should start synning!

I love having a heb and half a hea left at night for a bowl of cereal really stops me wanting all sorts of rubbish! X

Thats a good idea saving your HexB for cereal in the evening, especially if you have the munchies! I tend to have a choccie treat like a Curly Wurly or snack size Mars Bar x

Haha! Believe me Im tempted occasionally, especially when Im pre menstrual & would be like an UmpaLumpa in Charlie & the Chocolate Factory! In fact I sometimes think I look like an UmpaLumpa LOL!!!!!!!!!!!! No, in all seriousness, Im very restrained 95% of the time, its that 5% that b*****s me up!!! x

 

[lilprincessvic]

if i start on sweet stuff i honestly dont stop but if i dont eat it it doesnt bother me! Think thats why im so rubbish on using my syns. I dont like to eat naughty stuff cos when i do i dont stop!

 

[kim63]

You dont need to use your Syns on 'naughties', try using them up in cooking.......like olive oil, mayo, ketchup, hoi sin, extra bread, crispbreads....the list is endless! x

 

[lilprincessvic]

I dont like a lot of stuff thats the problem too.

 

[kim63]

Oh dear, must be difficult then! What do you tend to have for your syns then? x

Not a lot to be honest. I tend to either use no syns or millions lol. Im totally rubbish with it but ive been trying really hard this week!!!!!

 

[lilprincessvic]

Doing the whole restraint thing! I've got a bag of jelly babies and I have eaten 5 n put it back. So that's 5 syns! Made myself a crusha milkshake with soya milk. So that's 2 syns x
