Steamed salmon, tomatoes, cucumber, egg, fat free yoghurt
Snack
Candy floss (8?), mini smarties (1), ice-cream (1)

I feel like I fell off the wagon today, but looking at it written down, it doesn't look as bad as I'd thought! I did have a lovely day out with my little girl in the sunshine at the beach though, and we walked miles, so it all balances out.

Hey, you seem to be really sticking to the plan - even when you think your halo has slipped!! We all need a sugary treat now and then - i'd go mad without my chocolate!
Im making some sw friendly snacks today/tomorrow so I can get back into it. Have thought about going to ww but I like the sw plan as I dont have to weigh much!
Have you tried the syn free bbq sauce?? Ive made some and im going to try it with chicken wrapped in bacon tonight yum yum roll on tea time!!
Have a good weekend!

Hi Kerry
Glad you are sticking with it - I have some friends on WW and all that counting would drive me mad!
I definitely need to sort out more treats to stop me from falling into bad habits. Saying that I've just had some homemade shortbread and it was divine!
You'll have to post the recipe for the BBQ sauce x

You seem to keep your syns low during the week so I'm sure you will be fine. 19 is only 4 over and your back on track today

BBQ sauce recipe
you will need
1 onion, peeled and roughly chopped
1 tsp mild chilli powder
227ml/8fl oz passata
3 tbsp artifical sweetner
4 tbsp balsamaic vinegar
1 tbsp worchestershire sauce
1/2 tsp mustard powder
salt and freshly ground blacke pepper.
balslmic vingar and worchestershire sauce provide the basis for this great tasting bbq sauce that is perfect for a dip, basting a chicken thighs or vegetable kebabs before a bbq, lady who gave me this recipe said she has them on spare ribs and cooks them in the oven so she has bbq spare ribs.
spray a pan with fry light and saute the onion and chilli powder over a low heat for 5 minutes until softened.
stir in the remaining ingrredients, bring to the boil and simmer for 10 minutes untill thickened. check the seasoning before serving hot or cold.
syn free on both days ready in 20 minutes serves 4 and freezer friendly.

Happy days!
Early WI this week, as I am away tomorrow, but it's another 2lb off. Yippee! Happy bunny
Plus, I've managed to lower my weight, as I'm using my wii from now on, and it weighs 2lb lower than the SW scales. So, I'll reduce my starting weight to 12st 1lb, and with my 9lb lost in four weeks, that puts me at 11st 6lb. I can live with that for a week - onwards and downwards.
