[Blondeshavemorefun]

Wondered if wouid help us all to have a thread where we wrote what we eat each day

To give other new ideas options etc

B toast b - scrambled egg beans spinach ham
L chicken salad and mayo light 1
T potato bacon onion bake - sw mince and veg and salad

@twinkledag I admit I do at home without classes as I work different times so can’t make same class and time

Anything I’m not sure I google or ask this lovely lot

But seems pretty much the same when I did it years ago tho muller lights aren’t free

For stirfry I usually marinade my chicken in Chinese five spice then flash fry it in fry light.
I add some soy sauce, sometimes a small amount of stock and lots of veg.

Nando's pittas aren't a b choice. I think I'll stick with their salads. Does anyone know how many syns are in their green and grain salad?

Oh and my chips. Admit they were ok but not sure why as rave about them

And Nando's chicken in pitta is actually 18 syns!

Nando’s butterfly chicken breast is 3 syns, and a portion of their spicy rice is 2.5, that’s what I always have when I go, plus either a side salad or a corn on the cob.

Did pretty well yesterday, WI tomorrow morning so definitely going to be good today! Yesterday I had:

B - 2 choc weetabix (HEB) with Milk (HEA) and strawberries

L - leftover beef and roast potatoes with salad and light mayo (1)

D - tuna pasta bake with cheese (HEA)

S - fibre one bar (4), hifi bar (3) and haribo (2.5)

Hey all!

Breakfast today was a banana and coffee. Lunch is a ginormous bowl of mixed bean salad with capers, cucumber, santini tomatoes, ham and white wine vinegar. All very yum!

18 syns how. 6 for pitta so 12 for chicken ?? Wow

Can anyone who is a member please tell me the syns of these please

Thank you

Here you are @Blondeshavemorefun

Thanks @dexterslockedintheshedagain 😘😘

My chicken stir fry with noodles for 5
I should R.E.M. to buy dry noodles next time but was yummy

@dancemom I have found this the easiest diet to stick to! And I feel like I have tried them all... takes a bit of getting used to but once you're in the groove.

I always have fruit and yoghurt or bacon and eggs for breakfast and save my HEB for 2 hifi as I always need a midafternoon snack

Today was a baked potato with chicken salad vinaigrette 2.5 syns (grrr) and butter 2 syns

Dinner was aldi cod lightly dusted in flour which was 7.5 syns!!!!!!! I wish I'd checked before I bought it. But it was nice - with mashed potato (butter 3 syns), steamed broccoli, runner beans and courgette.

All my syns now used up I think I will get an early night!

I messed up today as went out for lunch. Hard when on holidays but then I find it hard when at work so I think it's just me 😆

Will start again tomorrow even though am away now for a few days and food is harder to control,

What did you have @twinkledag and tomorow well today is a new day :)

@TigerJoy I agree. Don’t like using my b for breakie but often do

The frittera I made was nice and filling and easy to heat up

The sweet cous cous filling as well and feels like a b

Tho love a fry up and weekends is good time wise

@blondeshavemorefun I missed your request for a stir fry recipe

I usually peel then grate a big chunk of ginger (about the size of your thumb), 2 cloves of garlic and chop a small chilli. Stir fry chicken, bung in the above in the last minute or two of cooking. Remove chicken, stir fry veg for 4 mins, put chicken back in pan with noodles /rice, a tin of sweetcorn, and stir fry with about a teaspoon of sesame oil. How was yours?

@TigerJoy yours sounds lovely. Mine was nice but very basic

Cooked chicken. Put aside. Added bag of stir fry veg. Cooked. Added the cooked noodles 5syns as didn’t have any dried Added chicken and soy sauce and stirred

I didn’t even think of sweetcorn and bloody love it

Also a lot of dark green cabbage in packet and bit sour. Might next time chop my own cabbage carrots onions and add BEan sprouts

But was nice. Filling and have spare portion that I will prob have tomorow before night shift at work

@Blondeshavemorefun we had Mexican and I can't resist the nachos!

Starting again today - just about to weigh myself.

Does anyone know the syns in one of these?

@twinkledag - it's not on the app but the version they serve in Starbucks itself is between 2.5 and 5 syns depending on size. Hope that's helpful!

@blondeshavemorefun I add in extra mushrooms as well - I agree the packs often don't have a good balance of veg.

I'm glad it worked and it's good to have good leftovers

The only thing I hate is mushrooms

B friterea and beans and apple

L pesto 3 pasta and veg

T bacon potato onion bake - and prob with rosemary and onion sausage and fried eggs

Pissing down here. Was meant to be a fun day out but going to friends instead for indoor picnic with kids and she always has cakes

I’ve being prepared and taking chopped Melon cucumber peppers banana and apple

I will not eat cake !!!!

@twinkledag
Using the syns estimater it comes in at 2syns per 100 ml

Thank you for the syns help!

Yesterday's menu:

L- Frittata and salad

D- Steak fajitas, 2x tortilla wrap (one as a HEb, one for 6 syns) and fat free yogurt mixed with garlic, onion and chive.

Today:

L- All Day Breakfast - Linda McCartney sausages, fried egg, bacon medallions and mushrooms.

D- Jerk Chicken (1.5syns) Roast Garlic Sweet Potato (2) and peas. I'm having fat free yogurt mixed with a Cadbury Fudge Highlight got 2syns later.

Ha, sorry @blondeshavemorefun!

Feeling gutted at weigh in that I only lost a pound

Usual for breakfast, lunch was leftover pasta bake.

Made carbonara with mushroom, bacon medallions, egg, parmesan (which I should probably syn due to lunch) and tricolour pasta. Was only moderately successful.

@TigerJoy it’s a loss

R.E.M. 1 lb a week is 4stone in a year

@WeKnowFrogsGoShaLaLaLaLa why was the sweet potato syns?

I was good today. Didn’t eat brownies cakes biscuits or crisps

I ate my melon cucumber and apple

Thanks @blondeshavemorefun!

Made carbonara tonight with bacon medallions and I have to say it was not that great.

Cheering myself up with a measured quantity of mint choc chip ice cream

Oh no. WHy not nice

I made years ago when did sw. think was pasta and eggs mixed at end and cheese and bacon
