Right ladies i jonied 2-night and this time i will do it.

anyone else joining me?

deegward well done for staying around target. it must be such a great feeling. would love to get there. maybe one day (sighhhhh)

Woo Hoo I found some low sinned veggie curries (in cans) Asda Smart Price Vegetable Curry is just 1.5 sins a can, and even better Asda Chick Pea Dhal is FREE I don't have to give up one of my faves But I can't have it with Bombay Potatoes too (8 sins )

I am still dropping in here, I have just had a really crap 2 weeks, I changed classes to a new consultant, was good for 2 days then MIL pissed me off BIG TIME and I am such a comfort eater it led to bread and buns Then I was away on a business trip for 2 days - only food on offer was picky sandwiches, crisps, chocolate and wine. Then once I had planned to go back to a later class DD1 got chicken pox I felt life was saying something. Also BIL was over from Austrailia which meant chinese Takeaways, champagne etc So I went to class on Monday and had put on 6lbs in 2 weeks I did have all that crap and it was the wrong time of teh month and I was wearing the wrong skirt So I reckon about 3lbs was not actual weight gain.

Next week I am in Centre parcs on holiday so I am planning an exercise rich week ? and I will only take good food with me (like hell!) Oh well in 2 weeks at weigh in again if I have lost 1lb, I'll be happy

Just made my first ever meal with quorn ! Was having a green day and so we had giant jacket potatoes with quorn chilli con carne. It was absolutely delicious. half way through i asked dh if it was ok and he said "ummmm very nice". Which is when i told him it wasn't meat ! If i'd have told him before he wouldn't have eaten it, or he would have said it tasted funny.

Am very happy as i now see new vistas opening up to me - large plates of spag bol, loads of chilli con carne and rice, burgers and sin free chips...ohhh yummmm yummmm

Am off out for a curry tonight and having a green day.
In the old food directory there used to be a list of approx sin values for eating out places (i think) but there isn't in the new one.
Can anyone tell me what my best choices are ?
I am assuming pilau rice or plain boiled and a vegetable curry - but which is the lowest syn curry sauce ?
Thanks

I would go with the old directory and hope that it's not changed too much. Saying that my dish (from Supermarket) went up 12 syns!!. If it's only a one off, you'll probably be OK.

I chucked my old directory, so i am up shit creek ! I'll try and stick with rice and a veg curry in a dryish sauce. I'd assume a dry sauce would be less syns than say a creamy one. Who knows ?! The hardest thing will be keeping away from the naan bread.

kayleigh, I would say a tomato based sauce, with spinach say, instead of a korma would be great. Just remember some of the rice is coated in oil. Sorry, but enjoy your meal and remember always make tomorrow a no syns day to make up for today!!

I was very virtuous in my menu choices. Had bolied rice and a vegetable bhuana (sp?) which had a dry sauce and not creamy at all.
But polished off three large puppadoms with mango chutney plus 3 glasses of wine. And half a naan bread
Ah well...todays another day.

I'm still here !!
Anyone else or have you all given up ?

I'm here had a bad couple of weeks but i'm back

Nice to have you back fairydust. How's your dd doing ?

I'm also plodding along, got my 1st (this time round) half stone award last week

Congratulations Furball. I got mine today too! Lost a pound making a total of 7.5. She didn't give me my sticker straight away and when I was about to leave i realised what my total weight loss was and went back and ASKED for it. How sad am i !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

well done furball and Kayleigh - got my weigh in thurday night - as had to change cause of dh's shifts.

Have been really good so fingars crossed.

i found something really nice today only 2.5syns each and there lush.

Caxton Pint and whites - there quite sugary and biggish and there soooo nice.

What's a "Caxton Pint and whites" Fairydust ?

(and please don't answer "2.5 syns" )

sorry it caxton make them - there called pink n whites.

two waffers with a kinda sugary marshmellow in the middle - from farmfoods there sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
nice

Oooh fairydust that sounds rather nice. I lurve marshmallow. Can you get them in Tesco/Sainsburys ?

havn't looked to tell you the truth. -

I came across them by accident really at a frieds house -

there in a pink packet

sainsburys on line do them

and there was me just about to do a tesco order. think i'll do sainsburys this week !

2.5 this week

Fairydust well done (I hope i'm right in assuming that is 2.5 lost and not gained).
How is your dd ?

yes a lost was a little disapointed but when i worked out how many syns i'd had all week i think i was a little over.

DD is getting better
