Yesterday turned out really well. The oat pancakes were tasty, second day spicy food is always better than first day and I also enjoyed the savoury rice. All very satisfactory - but no photos, sorry.
Today's plans:
B: pancakes with fruit and yogurt
I know I had pancakes yesterday but I wanted to try something.
When I first started SW, I had a chat to my consultant about wholemeal/wholewheat flour as I made my own bread and we decided that 35-40g wholewheat flour would be the equivalent of a healthy extra B. Yes, a bit of a fiddle in that flour is not considered a healthy extra but it's all about the fibre and if 60g of wholemeal bread is a heB, then I reckon so should 35/40g of just the flour, bread being more or less 2/3 flour and the rest other ingredients, mostly water. I've just checked the calories and 35g seems just about right. It's not Slimming World, strictly speaking, but it should be a workable equivalent - for me, anyway.
This is a very long way round to say I shall try making some pancakes with wholewheat flour and see how it goes. 35g flour, one egg and one mini yogurt drink (may as well, seeing as I have it anyway!) plus some vanilla and some sweetener. If that works (a big if, I know), I might have a go at a neutral or even savoury batter.
SW: one heB for the flour, two syns for the mini yogurt drink and one and a half syns for agave nectar. Also, I've realised that I'm out of natural yogurt for the topping so I will have a Mullerlight for half a syn
L: chicken saag, fruit
From the freezer, this is the leftovers from an Aldi ready meal so I've now crossed it off the list.
SW: free
D: sausage, chips and veg
I think it's time I had a more 'conventional' meal and, as Beth is dining with me, she can have a veggie burger while I have two skinny sausages and we can both have chips and veg, of which I have plenty!
SW: one syn for the sausages and one for oil for the chips (I'm sharing them with Beth)
S: easy peelers
BM: I'm feeling quite weary after a very intensive training session yesterday so will stick to the stretching and balance exercises. I might also take a walk to Morrisons for some bits and bobs, including a yogurt top up!
Summary:
one heB - ooops
six syns
nothing too expensive today - fingers crossed the pancake idea works, lunch is leftovers and dinner won't be too bad either
