Thread: New to Slimming World

Hi, i am a newbie to sw, only started 16/01 and i am doing this on my own, don't have the time to go to classes etc. I think i have done pretty well so far and have a little understanding of what to do but i would be very grateful if anyone could give me any tips and also any syn free or low syn recipes.
Does anyone know also where i can buy the food directory from.

Many Thanks

Nice username

If you spend 5 or 10 minutes looking around the forum you'll see there is a whole section dedicated to recipes. There are hundreds and thousands of them listed on here that you could try out.

With regards to the food directory, I believe you can only buy them from group. Although someone may have put one on eBay, but it is likely to be a lot more expensive.

Thanks Stevie

Hey. There have been some changes to healthy extras this year so when I can get onto the website (its playing up at the moment) to check for you I will let you know. I'm not even totally sure they are still a healthy b x

I was on the SW website earlier. They are still on the food diary as a hexb and its 1 not 2 that you're allowed.

Yes, but according to your info you don't follow SW anymore, you follow slim n save, so you may not have been up to date with all the changes & it would be a shame for the OP to get incorrect info.

Jaqs - gutted about the oats so simple - especially as I bought a bunch on special offer 2 data before new year!!!!!!!!!!!!

As they aren't a free food you can work it out using 1 syn for every 20 cals x
