 Good morning - I mean afternoon - everyone.
Really sorry this is late.  It's been quite a busy morning what with an early shop and then digging down the allotment!

Yesterday's photos:

Breakfast was lovely toast and marmite - a bit more than usual and it seems to have sorted out the bunged up problems!  :-)

This was the roast lamb dinner and it was lovely.  I did loads of vegetables so the plate looks more loaded than it really was.

I totally forgot to photo the evening meal.  I used the leftover noodles from the chow mein, stir fried some veg, added bits of leftover lamb, some chow mein spice and some soy sauce and it was delicious!  I love a good leftovers meal.

Today's meal plans (more in retrospect than in advance now)

B:  a really naughty cheese and marmite how cross bun from M&S

I'd heard that this was a thing so, obviously, I had to, didn't I?

SW:  nine and a half syns for the bun and half a healthy extra A for some cheese triangles spread over.

And then I had another one when I got home from the allotment at midday.  Naughty me, but I'll swap it for a healthy extra B and the first one was instead of another breakfast so the calories will be fine.

L:  leftover Sunday lunch fry up

I cooked a jacket potato in the microwave.  Then I cut it up and fried the chunks with some onion in spray oil.  To that I added some leftover veg - cabbage, broccoli and cauliflower - plus the last scraps of the roast lamb and a dollop of gravy.  Lovely!

SW:  one syn for the bit of gravy

D:  jacket potato with chicken, mushroom, cheese and bacon topping, side salad; yogurt

I cooked another small potato at lunchtime so I can crisp that up in the oven while I cook the topping.  I'll serve with the potato split open, topped with the chicken, mushroom and bacon with cheese on top.

SW:  one healthy extra A for the cheese, two syns for some mayo and half a syn for yogurt (which I might freeze)

Body Magic:  Day 22 of the 100 day challenge:  I've done ninety minutes of work down the allotment, including quite a lot of heavy digging.

Summary:

one and a half (maybe two) healthy extra As

no Bs but I did have the buns

twenty two and a half syns, but most are substitutes for other things/meals so the calories work out just fine.
