It was amazing! Super tasty; had to use swede as couldn't get turnip, but it worked perfectly. I also added prawns and asparagus. It's on the make again (real soon) list.
T_T's (hopefully!) dimishing returns!

I don't really use the little handle bit; being left handed, I have it kind of back to front!
2lbs off; not bad, but was hoping for a bit more. Hopefully will show next week.

L - jacket potato with cottage cheese. Edamame, cress and sugar snap salad.

Thank you. If I do the same this week, that's my 3.5 stone award?! Crazy... I guess I was a bit disappointed because I know I've had weeks with cheat days where I've lost more. But good things come to those who wait!

Oh hey weekend! Hurrah! Well, after a stressful afternoon and a dying bus, I feel that gin is much needed. To ensure I don't consume an entitle bottle, I have gone the gin in a can route (M&S, diet version, don't you know) x2 (5 syns)
Had my HEXB of toast with HEXA of LC light blue cheese triangles.
D - tandoori yogurt marinated cod loin with roast veg.
Dessert is going to be quark with options (2) and PB2 (2.5)
Total syns for the day: 9.5

I think that 5 syns worth of gin was reasonable! Urgh... just realised there's F1 again this weekend. May be taking myself off for some long walks...

Great body conditioning class and got some additional body magic in as well! I'd forgotten my keys and my OH was doing the laundry, so had to walk a bit further and collect his keys on my way home.
B - had blackberries, strawberries and banana before I went to class.
Brunch - planning on heading out for a walk, so wanted to have something a bit more substantial. Odd mix, but it will keep me going! Made up some instant mash and made it into potato cakes with egg, sweetcorn, spring onions a LC light cheddar triangle (1.5) and some parmesan (1). Served with fried tomatoes.
I may include the LC in my HEXA if I'm short on syns later. We're out for leaving drinks tonight, but I think I'll just stick to diet coke
And will be snacking on lots of fruit, because I've stocked up now!

Well... just got back from my walk. I was out for over 5 hours and must have walked over 10 miles with the meandering around! Tan well and truly topped up!
Had 2 x Alpen lights as my HEXB and a packet of crisps (3.5)
D - pasta bake with HEXA of cheese.
Alpro (5.5)
Total syns for the day: 11.5
I think I'll just stick to diet coke tonight, because one won't be enough if I do drink!

Well, after yesterday's mammoth walk, I've just cancelled this morning's classes. My glutes are really sore and my ankle's a little tender. I will probably take myself off to the gym a bit later, but I think giving classes a miss is sensible.

Breakfast was yummy - fried off red onion and sweet peppers, added kidney beans, tinned tomatoes and baked some eggs in the top, served with fried tomatoes. Delish!
L - will probably feature HEXB wrap with HEXA of cheese. Will update properly later.
And I think dinner will involved spiralized swede, because I have some to use up!

It actually wasn't too difficult, have to peel it and have a good flat edge to work from.
So, I've decied dinner is going to be a variation of these: Spiralized Sandwich Bun with Avocado-Goat Cheese Spread | Inspiralized
The bun will be made from sweet potato and swede and I'm going to make the salmon burgers to go inside (0.5 for the curry paste)
Had a clementine and a plum, will head off to the gym in a bit, but going to do a bit of clothes sorting first. Then I'll probably have my HEXB wrap with HEXA of cheese and veggie bacon with burger relish (1) and a packet of crisps (3.5)
Quark for pudding tonight with Options (2) and PB2 (2.5)
Syns for the day: 9.5
