I've not updated my diary since Friday! Tut tut to me!
Had a really busy weekend as I went to stay with some friends. My weekend wasn't exactly angelic BUT it certainly could have been much, much worse! On Friday I had a syn free day at work, then drove down to my friends house. She greeted me at the door with a glass of prosecco! So it would have been rude not to! We went out for tea and I made, I think, some good choices. The menu was quite small so I chose a mushroom and goats cheese starter and salmon with crab and prawns with veg. Then tiramisu!! Oops! And I had wine too. Drat!
On Saturday I then went to stay with another friend, she cooked a lovely dinner of falafel, meatballs, salad and flatbread, so not exactly slimming world, but not too bad. we went out at night to see a band and although I was drinking (again!) I was on spirits and mixers, so hopefully I've not been tooooo bad! And when we got home I had a salad wrap which is much more restrained than the usual takeaway option!
So although I could have been better, I also could have (and previously would have been) much worse! I've no idea how many syns I've had so I've decided to let it go and try to have a well behaved low-syn week.
Today's food-
Brekkie: 2 alpen light bars (HExB) whilst waiting for the car to defrost, brrrrrr this morning!
Lunch: jacket potato with beans and a blob of Branson pickle - 2 syns
Snack: crab sticks, apple, muller Greek lemon - 0.5 syn
Tea: spicy spag Bol (2 syns) remaining from last week with 28g light cheddar (4 syns) - total 6 syns
Total syns for day - 8.5
