    The 20 cals = 1 syn rule help.

    Hi all. I was just wondering about this. I've always used it and have been successful in losing almost 8 stone, but now I'm struggling and I was wondering if I need to review this.

    What would you syn 69-70 calories as? 3.5 syns or 4 syns. I'm concerned that I'm ending up with extra half syns here and there and it's holding me back. On the other hand I don't want to over synning everything.

    Many thanks
    :-) x

    I would always over-syn just to be on the safe side but I could be being too cautious!
