Yep 28g branflakes plus x1 ryvita sesame/original/dark rye counts as x1 HEB

I just had the most tasty tea! made Jamaican chicken curry, added lots of spinach, fresh chilli, onion and tomatoes etc and it was lush! had it with brown rice and some grapes for dessert

Did a hr in the gym today too so feeling good as i usually go mad at the wkends and bugger up. lol. Made enough of the curry for work tomorrow too so that saves me being tempted to eat junk and il take 2 mini merginue nests with me as a snack with my coffee.

Hope everyone has had a good wkend xxx

Hey ladies, hows it going? I was wondering if anyone knows the syn value to the collmans mediterranean bag and shake thing, thats whats in my oven...I hope its not too bad...was in the cupboard and needed used. Also, would any of you lovely ladies know any nice dessert recipes (low in syns) that require pears? I have a whole load that are almost ready for eating and would like to do summit tasty with them as a wee treat x

 

[africaqueen]

Palmtree- Not sure of desserts for pears other than having them sliced up with a vanilla yogurt and some cinnamon? if u cook them they develop a syn value so i dnt usually bother really... Where abouts are u in NI? I am going there in April to visit my cousins for a few days she lives around half hr away from Belfast xxx

 

[lozzy21]

Stayed the same, better than i expected realy. Going to go to asda tomorrow to stock up of fresh fruit and veg. Iv got frozen and tinned stuff but unless its staring me in the face i wont eat it. I realy need a fruit bowl for my front room

 

[Amy-Lea]

I had that as my plan Loz to encourage me to eat as I don't eat during the day but love fruit! I had a fruit bowl and Hallie during the day actually cleared the lot! They were NOT good nappies haha

 

[daniandbaby]

I've lost 3lbs since monday!

Really chuffed, and i've eaten loads. Gonna have to stick to my weekly planning , it seems to work for me!

Also has anyone else heard that drinking green tea boosts your metabolism? I've started to have 2-3 cups a day to help, but also I want to reduce caffine, which I also heard can help fertility! Oh and it helps your immune system and prevents some cancers, good stuff this green tea.
If your gonna give it a go, dont buy the cheap stuff cause it tastes rank, try and get clipper organic tea...not too bad

I don't know about boosting metabolism but a lot of the girls in my SW group drink it because it can work as an appetite suppressant. Twinings do a good flavoured pack, my SW leader reccommends orange & lotus flower (for some reason I've also noticed it's the best at suppressing my appetite), but the apple and pear is looovely.
A lot of people don't like the taste, but you can really perk it up with some sugarfree cordial
