LOL only been a veegie for about 5 years-just glad I manage to remember lol.
Had School sports day today so I was running all over the place which the kids found very funny! Wasnt until I took part in the egg and spoon race I realised what cheats most of the staff are lol
So there was also a BBQ but I took my own so it wasnt too bad.
Todays diary so far
B'Fast- Coffee, I did go to have pineapple but it wasnt ripe so I had to leave it.
Lunch-ASDA meatfree 1/4 pounder, 2 syns
with BNS wedges with lettuce and peppers.
Snack-Coffee
Dinner-will be making a risotto with BNS, peppers, onions, scallions, asparagus and broccoli!!
Right-does an end of term thank you cake from my form class count as syns?? I HAD to have a slither to be nice-I would have been able to resist but felt I had to have some. Prob only had about 40g if that.......what do we reckon??

U eat sooo many superfoods/veg zoe...no wonder the weight is flying off! well done 
Cake wise...i would say if it was like a victoria sponge type thing, maybe 6 syns for a small slice? just to be on the safe side - mr kipling slices have 7.5 syns each apparently!!

Will put it down as 7 whihc menas I went over my syns yesterday by 5 lmao-but I did 8 another day so I am kind of even-ed out!!
28g of a victoria sponge is about 5syns, so I'd allow 7
Yip def doing it as 7 (read above
)Thank god I have you guys to keep me on the straight and narrow! I was def not going to put it down, but at least for the week I am still in the right amounts for the week, even if I do like to stay in my daily limit
Thank you for the advice ladies!!!
I definitely think that eating the veg helps, same with fruit, I do try to snack on fruit during the day instead of syns, but have been cutting down on snacks altogether because I am not so hungry. ALways make sure you so 1/3 superfree!! Also I am doing my body magic-started with the bronze. So 45 mins spread out in 5, 10 or 15 sessions!! Maintained for 4 weeks, it is easy enough to fit in, and it is all you have to do!!
In short Monkey chops-yes
Bloody teachers with their long drawn out answers

Thanks, am impressed so far with how SW is going for me but will try and up the veggies, am not generally a fan tbh! Here I go again - ?body magic?? Not sure what that means, but I am not going to class this time around and my book is from July last year, so maybe it is something new?!!

Body Magic is the exercise program that runs in conjunction with Body Optimising. It encourages you to up your exercise but not too much too fast-all about getting more and more active so that you have an overall healthy lifestyle. Basically SW is completely trying to retrain us to be healthy happy people!! Hope this helps

So today goers a little something like this
B'fast- Tangerine, apple and pineapple
Lunch- Leftover risotto from last night with some extra asparagus
Dinner- Pasta n sauce with extra broccoli and BNS wedges, delicious, esp with al the extra herbs and spices I added yum yum
Syns- Tesco extra light soft cheese (added to the pasta)-had 50g so saying 3.5 syns
Then tonight I am having beer so 4x czech low alco mixed with 1 x crown 4% for a total of 10syns
Total synnage- 13.5
Hex A- 350ml sKIMMED WITH COFFEES THROUGH DAY
Hex B- Mint HiFI bar at 9
Lovely.
Went to chilli fest which was rubbish, wrong season for it so didnt have many chillis. Got 2 bottles of sauce which are syn free, because no syn ingredients YAY.
Also found a wee indian supermarket in Belfast which I didnt know was there so spent a fortune on spices-which I put in everything but it is SO much cheaper than the supermarkets.
Anyway thats about it. Tomorrow is a cleaning day, but I made SW quiche tonight for tomorrow!! woo hoo

Hi all
I am a little bored, and yet strangely not bored enough to do the housework that needs done prior to my dad's arrival.
So today has been a weird one due to a need for food shopping, but here goes everything so far.
B'Fast- Apple (nowt else in the house)
Lunch- Toast (hexB)-with quark, with baked beans (with celery peppers scallions and some inferno chilli sauce) Also 2 x Quorn sausages (2 syns)
It was delicious and now I am stuffed!!
Dinner- Was made last night- SW quiche with peppers leeks and scallions. Will have a side of a little salad(lettuce really) and some BNS wedges. Yum yum.
This means I can have syns later oh yeah!!!
Dinner
Cant believe tomorrow is WI day. So maybe tonight I will also make some BNS soup to have for lunch tomorrow lol, think light as possible, would love to have another loss
but am worried as I have my TOM 
We will see xxxx
