Monday 3rd October
Had a red day today. Its been a really long time so i really hope i have done it right.
For tea I made Chicken Parmigiana, i have attached pics. Got the recipe from Slimming Eats here:
http://www.slimmingeats.com/blog/chicken-parmigiana
B: Fruit n fibre + banana + coffee (heb1, hea1)
L: Chicken salad with el mayo (0.5 syns), chopped apple, grapes and raspberries + muller light
D: Chicken Parmigiana with 100g cooked wmeal pasta (hea2, heb2 + 4.5 syns). This recipe was really good but i didnt read it properly so underestimated the time and effort it would take. Was really yummy though and will make agai. It also went down really well with OH. Its actually only meant to be 2.5 syns but i am a bit paranoid about my measurements so i added a couple on to be safe.
Syns today:5
For week sa far: 52.5
I got the flu jab at work today and am feeling a bit rotten now

Feeling pretty sorry for myself. I had the flu jab at work yesterday and ended up ill all night last night. Fever, headache, shakes, aches UGH! :sign0137: Hardly slept a wink. Woke up at mid night and was clinging to OH for dear life to get some heat! Was about 10 minutes until i realised that the poor man was drenched in sweat! I am still feel like crap but feel to guilty to not go in to work tomorrow as one of our major unions (not mine) is striking. Hardly any nurses will be at work as it is without me being off too. Fingers crossed i am feeling ok tomorrow.
Well i have slept for most of the day so just ate in between:
B: Fruit n fibre + banana + tea (heb1 +hea1)
D: Cheese and mushroom omlette with SW chips and ketchup. (hea2 +1.5 syns)
Didnt get my heb2, oh well! Maybe i will have a muller light before bed. Not that its a healthy extra, i just thought it might be nice!
Syns:1.5
53 in total for week

Thanks Jules. I ended up leaving at about 11, i started coming over with sweats and stuff so they told me to go home lol! There was a good turn out though so i didnt feel too guilty for leaving. In fact i probably would have been better off just staying in my bed! I am feeling better now, hopefully i will be well enough for tomorrow. xxxx

Wednesday 5th October
Green Day
B: Weetabix minis + banana + coffee (heb1, hea1)
L: Had a sort of veg burger sandwich: 2x tesco meat free burgers (1 syn) with salad and el mayo (1 syn) in 2 slices of small wmeal bread (heb2)
Snack: Peach, apple and raspberries
D: Made slimming eats Quick Pasta Bake (hea2 + 1 syn) from here:
Quick Pasta Bake | Slimming Eats - Slimming World Recipes
Served it with a quarter of a low fat garlic bread (7 syns) and salad.
Was pretty good. I was worried as i thought it was going to be too watery but it turned out lovely and OH liked it too which was a relief because he spent half the night nagging for a dominos. Think he was hoping that since i am not feeling well he might be able to talk me into one! Talk about kicking a woman while she is down!!! He is usually so supportive, think maybe he is getting fed up of all this healthy food and craving some junk!
Syns today:10

Meeting a friend for lunch who has picked Starbucks. Ugh!!! Have had a look at the nutritional info and it hasn't really helped. I know we will be having meat of some sort tonight so today is going to have to be an EE day so have already used up my heb. I might just go for a skinny muffin + americano. At least I know the syns already for that.
Suppose it depends on how hungry I am just had a nice filling breakie so I might be ok.

Didn't get lunch in the end yesterday so didn't have to work out my starbucks syn. Still met my friend though. She is expecting baby no 3. I love hearing all her stories. Can't wait for a family of my own.
Went to Tesco to do a "cheap" week shop andv spent £63!!!! This is not cheap! How does this happen? So annoying.
Bought the new onken mango and passionfruit (I think) was so excited to try it and it wasn't until the third spoonful I realised something wasn't quite right....it was full fat!!! LOL! Was so disappointed LOL! Gave it to OH to enjoy!
Tea last night was chicken and black bean sauce from the chinese, was pretty good. It says in the book 5 syns but I ate the whole lot to myself so will say 10.
Yesterdays syns: 10 (pretending the yogurt thing never happened hee hee)
