[Kate&Lucas]

Ooh, I went to Llangollen last spring with hubby and some friends, we went on a canal boat from Whitchurch to Llangollen and back, it was loooovely I'd love to go back!

So far this week I have been really good, no syns Saturday, 6 yesterday, will be 8 today...hubby is craaaaving Domino's, so I've decided that as long as I behave myself all this week, I am allowed a small ('personal' size ) Domino's tomorrow as my flexi-syns day. It will be 26 syns, and that will be it tomorrow, no other syns at all!!! If I can keep up the good behaviour for the rest of the week I'll still be well under syns count for the week, even with the pizza. I know you're not meant to save your syns up or count them weekly rather than daily, but everyone here seems to do it to some extent and still loses weight, so a bit of sensible flexibility doesn't seem to do any harm??

The shock I had with that muffin on Friday (ate it without thinking about the syns, had a heart attack and felt really sick after finding out it was 23.5!!!) has really 'clicked' this diet into place for me, my motivation is really good at the moment (I haven't had chocolate ALL WEEK ). Long may it continue!!

I'd love to get 2 1/2 lb more off this week, at least - I've dropped 1 lb already, and another 2 1/2 would make my half-stone! The exercise is going well, my fitness is returning fast...seriously, if I can run 5k without stopping, anyone here can! I'm half way to being able to run all of my 10K in July, I suppose it is helping that I've got people sponsoring me to do that, so I feel like I can't let them down by being unfit!

Glad you're feeling better Africaqueen, I've never had cystitis but can imagine it's awful :/ I hope it clears up quickly for you!


(p.s. please please excuse the smilie abuse, I've never been on a forum with such good smilies before!)

It is them thats crazy not us

Amy- Glad ur back on track hun x

Dani- Im glad someone has been a bit more naughty than me! ha x

Well i am gonna be sooo good tomorrow...aside from the pancake im having for brekky at my mum an dads... Ooops xxx

 

[Reedy]

Seeing as its pancake day and all - Are plain pancakes syn free if not how many syns??
Would really love one tonight but been bad all week so if they are high in syns I would rather not have them x

Got Zumba tonight & tomorrow

 

[Amy-Lea]

There is a syn free recipe (which is basically a very thin ommelette with vanilla essence in ) but I doubt normal pancakes are. I googled last night and its 3.5 syns for a table spoon of plain flour and you need 100g in a recipe!

 

[Kate&Lucas]

Aunt Bessies' frozen pancakes are 4.5 syns each
There's a way of doing them just using eggs and sweetener, separate the egg whites, beat them 'til stiff, add the yolks and sweetener and fry in fry-light. Apparently they're just as good - but free! I've yet to give it a go

Well I PUT ON this week!! Half a pound, but omg it's given me a boost. Soooo annoyed at myself - I'm going for gold this week I better lose at least 4lbs!

 

[Reedy]

hhmmmm might attempt them or not bother as dh wont go for the syn free ones lol I'll just deny I know how to make pancakes, that usually works lol x

Oh and I bought some WW dessert yoghurts & on the pack it says Fat free so are they free on SW?? The flavours are strawberry tart, lemon cheesecake, toffee apple & I cant remember the other, they just seem too good to be free!?!

Kate - sorry about the 1/2lb but at leaset its given you the motivation again for next week x you'll soon lose it again & more xxx

 

[Kate&Lucas]

I've not got my book with me but I *think* fat-free flavoured yoghurt (apart from Mullerlight) are 1/2 syn for 100g. I could be wrong! Are you on the SW online?

 

[Reedy]

No I'm not thats why I ask so many questions lol x I cant afford it x
I thought if they were fat free they were free on SW, oh well only having one a day so not like its loads x
Thanks Kate x

 

[Kate&Lucas]

Oh look at me chatting shit! Just had a look and they're all free

 

[africaqueen]

Hiya girls

Kate- u will soon drop that half a lb hun. EASY ;-)

Well today i have eaten a normal pancake for brekky at my parents. Had a drizzle of syrup and lemon juice on it and it was YUMMY! lol. I went and did a 40 min sesh at the gym after it tho... haha. Going for a mile walk later too whilst this weather is so nice and im off work I am going to have a beetroot sandwich now and a apple. Weird combo i knw but super good for u and tasty. For tea dh will be having pancakes as he has been at work and is coming home for one night. I will be having chicken stir fry tho.
