16:20 hrs - munched a pear, a plum and a bag of ryvita mini's (HEB)

Thinking of having my last tub of mushy pea curry tonight with swede chips and maybe a bit of home-made egg-fried rice mmmm

 

[Tinnedtomato]

Tea last night was mushy pea curry with a jacket potato and 2 meat-free sausages (3 syns). Whilst waiting for tea though, I munched 2 left over potato waffles (7 syns).

Then last night, I had some Weetabix Crunchy Bran (HEB) with SS milk (HEA)

Total syns for the day = 10

FRIDAY 16TH SEPTEMBER 2011

I have got a looong day at work today. Got a meeting at half 5 til 7pm....on a Friday!! Who arranged that, I hear you ask....definitely not me!!!

Breakfast = Spaghetti hoops with a Light babybel (HEA)

Im not usually keen on spaghetti hoops, but with a babybel, they were totaly deeelish

 

[Tinnedtomato]

Lunch = Large salad box with boiled eggs.

I was almost very tempted into having bacon and egg mayo in it, but I resisted. Their mayo is totally gorgeous, so its probably loaded with syns, lol.

I bought a bottle of Jacques cider last night....anyone know the syns of it?? xx xx

 

[Louise24]

owch to the 5pm - 7pm meeting on a FRIDAY!!! That's well mean x

 

[Tinnedtomato]

I know....starving already too. There was mention of refreshments being served, but no doubt they will be cakes and buns, lol. Iv found out that Jacques is 7 syns for a 250ml bottle....so me thinks ill skip on the cakes and have a glass when I get home lol xx xx

Just had a bag of ryvita mini's (HEB) to put me on xx xx

 

[VITFA]

Hi

Im new to this group not sure if its the right one i should join ? im going to my first slimming world class tonight eeekkk im hoping to lose 2 stone, i have done WW in the past but was always hungry meaning i was cheating, just wondering if anyone has advice or tips

 

[Tinnedtomato]

Hi Jazzy, welcome to Minimins

This is my weight loss diary, so it only has limited people viewing it. You are more than welcome to stay subscribed, but I think your advert would be better off being placed in the introductions section of the forum.

If you look at the tabs at the top of the page, you'll find one called 'All Diets'. Drop that down, and place your post either in the 'Introductions' section right at the top, or scroll down to 'Slimming World' for a more specific place to put it.

Hope iv explained this right. If you have any probs, just let me know.

Good luck with your weight loss journey im sure you'll love slimming world xx xx

16:00 hrs - starting to get hungry now. Just had a pear, and still got plenty of fruit to get through, plus my ryvita mini's Trying to hold off them though because im having an EE day today, so I will have to syn them xx

 

[smills]

Why will you have to syn the ryvita minis? Can't you have them as your HEB? (You can have one A and one B on EE can't you?)

Sounds like your weekend went a bit wobbly, so hard when you're out with friends. Well done for drawing a line under it and not letting it ruin the rest of the week. Stick with it girl!
