 Morning, fellow slimmers!  :-)
(and everyone else)

Breakfast of fruity pancakes was, as always, totally delicious!

Bacon, sausage and beans for lunch.  I didn't have an egg in the end, it wasn't necessary.

I did end up using quite a lot of syns in this cauliflower macaroni cheese but it was worth every single one (I used light butter and carefully measured the flour so I didn't go over).

Look at all those speedy veg - sprouts, cabbage and cauliflower.

Today's meal plans:

B:  fruity porridge

Porridge is so simple and it's a great way to break ones fast.

SW:  half a healthy extra A for milk and one healthy extra B for the oats.  The rest is free/speed

L:  roast chicken dinner; fruit

Dinner rather than lunch; Beth is over so I'm doing two mains because I really fancy a roast.  I will cook (reheat!) her a Higgidy Pie of some kind - she loves them.  Roast chicken for me (the leftovers will feed me through the week) and we will both have roasted root veg and a selection of otherveg.  
SW:  If I boil up some cranberries and add sweetener, that will be free and I am fine without gravy.  I may use spray oil for the roasted veg but if I don't, that's two syns for one tsp

D: (tea really)  A sort of coronation chicken sandwich with some salad; yogurt or kvarg

I know I've had one healthy extra B already but that's OK.  I might make it a filled pitta or a wrap instead of slices of bread.

SW:  one healthy extra B, two syns for some light butter, up to two syns for some mayo, one syn for some mango chutney

Body Magic:  An online something or other, I haven't decided yet.

Summary:  one healthy extra A (for the porridge and milk in my tea), two Bs and five to seven syns

The nice thing about roasting a chicken is that there's plenty of leftovers and a good stock for the coming week.  Happy chickens are not exactly frugal but I will get the most out of mine, that's for sure.
