Yes hun, sweet potato would need to be syned on Red, but on the plus side, its not a lot of syns xx

Thanks lovely... lord knows how I'd work it out, it would be such a small amount per serving, i'd probably just say 1 syn lol. There again, it was perfectly nice without it, so I'll just save sweet potato for green days silly me!

Here you go hun, I got this from another post on mins xx

Hi sweet potato is 1 syn raw/boiled/steamed 28g on red or 1 1/2 syn for flesh only baked 28g on red.

Wow, thanks Kay... I'll file that in my SW folder just in case. I do miss being able to look online as I did when I was signed up to sw online but it was ridiculously expensive for what you got, so I just muddle through. I really appreciate it though, that's you and Sheila that have supplied great syns info today and kept me on the right track.
I've just been out to pick more runner beans, so think I'll have veg, not salad, with my peppered quorn steak this evening. Oh, while I'm here, I ordered some of that chicken style quorn too, so will be using that for something later in the week, I popped it in the freezer though as not sure when.

I’m so tired today that my meal tonight, after being changed from stir fry (because the veg turned out to contain too many sins and looked pretty yukky) was an omelette and veg. I’m not feeling too good, sure its just being over tired and aching - I’d better not be getting hubby’s cold or I’ll be cross! Early night tonight, fingers crossed.
Good luck for Day Four tomorrow everyone.

Well done Niamh on a fab day 3 hun . Your chicken & veg soup looks delish. You've done brill on the water intake, you've not had any syns, if your ok with that, that's fine but make sure you are having them in the week, or you will get cravings later on. Good luck with day 4, I know you'll do fab, looking forward to your soup tomorrow xx

Well done L fab day 3 hun. Sorry you've not been feeling well, but you made good food choices today for the challenge so well done for that. No worries about being slightly over syns, I know you were under yesterday and you top up on exercise sometimes, so your still on track . Your soup sounds delish, same as Niamhs, chicken & veg popular choice. Hope you manage a good nights sleep and good luck for day 4, hope you do smashing ! xx

Hello hun well done on a fab day 3 . Nope veg on Red is free and your doing fine. The one Cloudy6 was talking about were shop bought ones, which I think Sheila mentioned might contain oil. But home cooked are fine, I think peas are the only ones that need to be syned and also sweet potato if you use it on Red. Most other veg is free . Well done for hitting all your targets, your soup sounds super delish ! Good luck for day 4, I know you'll do smashing xx
