I would - as then its a true measure of your week. I think you were in need of a 'clean start' or new week, but don't let that cheat you out of your syns
Exactly what I wanted to hear

I love new food finds - pate is one i have never thought of synning! do they do a light choices one at Tesco, i am sure i have seen one - you might get EVEN more on a slimming one (sounds odd a slimming pate! haha)

Thank you so much for your comment! I've been a bit up and down lately and struggling to get my head back into the Slimming World way, but I think I'm finally there. This weekend I felt like I let my hair down, enjoyed what I wanted to have, and now I'm back on it. The biggest thing is that, for once, I don't feel guilty about it. And I think that's been my biggest hurdle in the past. I think I'm finally starting to find the balance, like you say
Well isn't that good news, how nice that you're finally accepting you can lose weight & enjoy yourself & that's ok x

Thank you! I'm really enjoying being back on plan this week so I think I'm going to have a good one! I'm even looking forward to stopping in at the weekend - I've planned an Indian takeaway and a glass of wine with my Syns on Saturday night, yum yum!!
Loving the Pate at the moment - will deffs keep a look out for the RF one! I also saw on the app that Tesco do a mushroom pate which is only 1.5 Syns per 25g
Will be hunting that down in Tesco tonight lol!The Finn Crisps which count as a B choice are the thins - the ones I use are the Thin Crisp Original, you can have 6!! This is what they look like (there are a few out there so it can be a little confusing):
Our Tesco used to sell them, but now they have stopped (ours is a bit naff like that!!) and now I can only get them in the health food shop.
Hope you're having a fab week! xxx

Thanks Michelle! I think I needed to stray a little bit to rediscover the beauty of SW. As the saying goes, "not all who wander are lost" - I am simply taking the scenic route

Ended up having a green day today! Went to Tesco for chicken etc. for tea, but ended up forgetting the carrots for my 'chips'! I knew I wouldn't be satisfied without them, as I fancied something 'carb' like. I also picked up some Quorn Swedish style balls so I made pasta instead. It was gorgeous! I ripped up pieces of mozzarella and stirred that through, it went all stringy and gooey. Devine!! Feeling thoroughly satisfied. I really enjoyed the meatballs, that was the first time I've tried them

Sounds so good! Really want a Daim now!

Only just rediscovered them myself! Can't believe they are so low in Syns. When you consider a Freddo is 5 Syns - a Daim feels soooo naughty for only an extra 2.5 Syns. Love it!!

Is that a full size daim bar for 7.5syns? I need to buy some! Love them, the chocolate is so thick on the top of them
what a lovey food day you've had today though, could just eat all of that you've made x
Yeah, just a standard size Daim bar! I bought a pack of three for £1 in the little news agents over the road from work. Can't believe they are so low in Syns when they feel so naughty and , as you say, the chocolate is so thick :drool: Delicious!
Really enjoyed my food yesterday. Didn't feel like a diet at all, especially having a sandwich, crisps and chocolate bar for lunch! The joys of SW

Woop, Happy Friday!! Feeling really happy and positive today
It will be a bit of a relaxed day in the office today (always nice on a Friday!). One of my colleagues turns 30 today, so we're going out at lunch time. She's decided on Pizza Hut. At first I was a bit unsure, but I did some research and found out I can have a pasta dish for just 6 Syns, which is pretty good! I'm also going to ask if they can do me a side salad (without dressing) just to keep me full up. The main reason is we're out again after work - another colleague is leaving after today. He's moving back to Scotland (where he's originally from) to a new job. So we're going out for a few drinks. I'm not going to have any alcohol though. In fact, I'm only staying out for an hour or so, just so that I'm not even tempted. And hoping that by filling up at lunch time I won't be hungry - I'll be able to make it home and then make myself a nice pitta toasty for tea, without munching along the way. Sounds like a plan!
I know I've been a bit rubbish with getting round peoples' diaries lately, so I promise I'll catch up with you all at some point today! Have a great Friday

You know what, I'm not too sure! It's years since I've been to Pizza Hut - I always avoid it with it being too high in Syns. I'm going to order the pasta and then I think I will ask if they can either give me a side salad or let me help myself to some from the salad bar. I'm looking forward to it! xx

Was going to say about the salad bar but people have beat me to it Have a lovely time, sounds like a great plan and you cant go wrong with an evening toastie, itll feel like a treat. You could even bung a bit of tomato puree in and itll feel like the pizza you missed out on x
