Bought a 6 pack and thought were syn free? They are pack of 3 strawberry and 3 cranberry and rasberry Can anyone confirm syn value please?

I know this post is a few months old but wondered if Tahini ha now been removed as a HEb? In my books ( 2 months old ) it is not listed under nuts and seeds?

yes totally understand... I am aiming to follow a low carb meal plan using SW as for me, low carbing will work. I agree with you that most foods doing this anyhow, will be g/f and so, am just having to tweak my menus to suit my diets...

Thanks both, yes I did tell consultant who admitted knowing nothing and so left me "to it" , did get the booklet... I really was hoping someone else had same conditions who we could do this journey together....lol...but its ok. I am reading so much info on here it really is helpful!

Amazing achievement! Well done you...so inspiring too. Thanks for sharing

Need to lose at least 80 pounds in weight . My aim is to have better blood sugars results and control. In addition, cannot eat anything that contains wheat, rye, barley or oats. Have been advised that as a diabetic, eating low carbs will help achieve desired blood sugars Just wanting to know...

Thanks both x

Just trying to get my head around the both plans As a diabetic type 2 and also Coeliac am advised that the RED days will suit me better ( lower carbs ) Just looking for tips / advice re red days and menu plans - link to them? Any help appreciated, thanks

This sounds lovely . Can I ask, did you use fresh tomatoes or tinned?

Bumping this up! I actually went off SW and now am back as need to lose weight properly. Have tried eating a lot more low carb and it has worked but need to focus on what I do eat and SW is really good to lose.. Thanks to those of you who are T2 who replied....hope we can be of support to...

Just bought some M&S reduced fat Butchers sausages ( 8 in pack ) and they look nice for 1 syn each on EE & Red and 4 syns on green

well, well, well, am in!! :)

Tried that first and she wasn't - she said call HQ! lol ...thanks for the suggestion

Thansk Peggy, I was unable to get online until now and HQ closed grrrrrr I really wanted to get my access to the site and start my diary, add info, etc etc, recipes and so on...:cry:lol

Thanks, meant to add that I have been trying to do so exactly as you mention, this morning, to no avail! OK, have gone thru process of creating new password and entering my card and PIN and still not able to log in. Have to wait til HQ open but now feel grrrr...

rejoined group last night and was told I didn't need a new card or change anything to log in on their website, well, just tried and low and behold, it says my card is already registered and I need to enter details of pin - that is same pin as I used as before apparently, but its not letting me...

Great achievement Lydia!

So glad this recipe has been shared, def one to do on my list!!

An interesting question - does anyone know? thanks x

Think I am going to start this Success Express tomorrow as have struggled to remain on plan this past weekend and want to have a good result at weigh in on thursday. Hoping I have understood the basics of the plan... Was wondering if I can still use this recipe...

thanks for that, I had noticed and edited my post as you answered...:sign0007:

in the optimising food book, there are quite a few fruits listed with SS (superspeed) but none on the vegetable page? There are a few on the starchy vegetables and pulses page though.... Am I missing something?

Thanks Fitzylou...am def going to make these tomorrow...

Am hoping to join you all...I didn't see this thread before but since joining SW a couple months back, have lost 11lbs altho in between that had a massive blip and found it hard to get back on track.. my latest weigh in showed me I had put a pound on so taking me to 14st 4lbs I am so wanting to...

ok, am armed now with my cheese n onion packet mash, 107g and quark or can have cottage cheese with chives. Just checking for actual measurements as have read several ideas on this thread... For the 107g would you use 3 eggs? Or is it best to stick to 88g?

o my dayz!! Just spent the best part of thisafternoon reading the 35 pages on this thread lol Dying to try these out... Love the sound of using quark, and the CC as well as a base...

I was wondering the same thing? I have some of these wraps and want to do a pizza....any help appreciated, thanks!

exactly...maybe we are to be mind readers LOL Am taking a season n shake rustic chicken mix, tonight, at 1 1/2 sins per person should be ok.... Wanted to take some other bits but as I will be around for a while, plenty of time....

O my dayz thats awful lol

did you mean this? Cookasheet Baking Sheet | Kitchen Utensils & Gadgets | ASDA direct

oo how good!!

Our group leader didn't explain this to me when I joined but did notice others popping in a tin or packet of something, into a basket when paying, and I quickly caught on lol So, what kinds of things do you put in the basket? Wonder if someone has won the slimmer of the week and what was in...

Looks fab Emmaline :)

Crispy cod and syn free chips ( off the sw website ) with salad...delicious

I completely forgot it's tonight!! Any ideas what to take plese

Glad I read this thread... I was a bit bothered by the way the consultant went around the group etc and hadn't realised I could say pass on me lol...but then would prob feel more embarrassed if I was the only one...cor!

Here's hoping it's NOT Diabetes hun x

I found them! thanks

thanks for that Lilly!! gonna makethat whole meal and see...

Thanks hun, sorry, I also meant can't find the pulled pork recipe...sounds so nice but can't find x

well, I have searched and searched lol, and cannot find it...any link help please?

sounds lovely... have seen somewhere the recipe for pulled pork, but do you have the one for texas chilli fries?

I must find those B wraps in ours... :)

It sounds like if you do have diabetes , no matter what time of day, your blood sugars will show too high compared to someone who does not have it... The fasting blood test is probably more accurate so if possible, would go for that one if you can take a half hour from work?

My Tesco has several flavours and they are creamy and delicious ( am just having to get used to the yoghurt smell ) lol

Honk!

Braised pork chop, celeriac chips seasoned in Cayenne pepper and baked for 20 minutes, a fried egg and some baked beans...

2 great days in a row HONK HONK

I try to eat low carb and test Everything first-time I eat else I won't know what affects my bloods. I guess your doctor hasn't given you a Meter?

HONK!!!

44p is good! 89p per pot in Tesco but buy 5 for £3! so that would be 60p per pot

Tesco? great...are they in smaller pots like the "shape " yoghurts?

oo only saw the plain fat free ones...where can you buy the flavoured ones?

will be trying that this week...thanks My dinner tonight is roast chicken , all the veg, with cauliflower mash, but added some cabbage and bacon in it too..tastes lush!!!

Thanks Bingeater, good advice, altho I am ok with all the berry family...they do not move my bgs at all, so freely eat those. I prefer not to eat bread / pasta as being gluten free, some of the options are yuk...lol

Thanks. Yer it was coz leader said the syn value changes as something happens to fruit when blended or somet like that!

thanks...it was more of a case of just knowing. Now and again I may have a smoothie but like to eat fruit

thank u so much x

yup, lol

Recipe missed off the 400mls water!! lol. just watched it

Glad I have heard from others with this condition, it helps a lot to know it works! I have already seen my morning bgs halved in a week...so am really glad!

does BNS stand for butternut squash? please?

think am collecting recipes.... is that one on here? or can you share the recipe pls?

aww fanx for that x

umm yes, sounds lush, will see if I can see the recipe on daybreak....

I have the G/f wraps in my freezer so thinking will make a pizza too... How does everyone make a pizza out of them & what does everyone put on their pizza's? ta

Can't recall what my group leader said about the syn value if you make a smoothie out of the free fruit Any help please?

Honk!!

Have discovered the Irish Diet yoghurts in Tesco...66 kcals a pot and according to the syncalculator, they are SYN FREE!! Creamy and tasty...

thankyou both of you...great advice and am already looking at the red days instead of extra easy as a better start for me. CD, No, I was not looking at changing the Hex for full fat ( didnt explain myself properly) but reading more, I can see that there is a full fat milk / cheese and I can...

As a diabetic and having to eat gluten free, am on 2nd week of SW plan. The first week though, I have struggled to make sense of what am reading up on and if I can make it work for me..I did only lose 1/2 pound as I only really started the plan the day before weigh in ( last night ) I was...
