The pack came today. I can attest that the Crispy Caramel Flavour Bar was delish! Later I plan to try the Chilli Con Carne meal. For ordering further "new user" packs, I expect that a new Credit Card and Delivery Address might be required in addition to an email address. Though I might be...

Thank you Pierce. You are a gentleman and a scholar. Thanking you for your help. Ian

When I try them I will let you know. Just to clarify, I thought the price was great value but it is a 1st time customer offer rather than a pack that can be regularly purchased.

I have restarted using Minimins after a long absence. My sig still shows SW stickers though I have edited everything but the U2 Quote out of the "signature" link off my profile. This time I am not using SW and feel bad about claiming Awards that I have regained the weight from. Does anyone...

I just ordered "VLCD Taster Pack - All you need to start including Free Shaker" for £30 off Slim & Save. This will allow me to try each of the shakes before I start the 8 week cycle in earnest. Kind regards, Ian

Pierce, Thank you for your reply. I managed to get rid of one large "sticker" through that signature link you pointed out. However, the half stone, club 10, Bronze and Silver awards are not in that link. I must continue searching for the info. Given the number of people who return to the...

MillieCat, You are welcome. The MSE site really is superb for the consumer rights thing. Looking at the "bargain" prices Slim & Save products I can imagine that you could EASILY be way over the £100 mark for credit card (consumer credit) rights. It is *not* unreasonable that if someone sells...

Some years ago (7 I think) I was using this site to support my weight loss journey with SW. It went pretty well for some years but I am embarking on a new weight loss attempt in an effort to reverse diabetes. The thing is my sig has a lot of "Awards" etc from my previous attempt. Could someone...

Thank you for your reply Shrinkingvioletnomore. I think I will be one willing to learn from other's experience and avoid lipotrim upon your description. From what I can see online Slim & Save do 28 day packs that are sufficient for 4 weeks at £130.00. That would bring an 8 week program to...

Hi MillieCat, I can't imagine how aggravating that must be. You should consider exerting your legal rights in the transaction. From Martin Lewis' Money Saving Expert site. " DON'T think buying online means fewer rights You've MORE rights buying online (or by telephone/catalogue) due to the...

Professor Roy Taylor's book "Life without Diabetes" offers a possibility of reversing Type 2 diabetes through diet and weight loss. Step one involves an 8 week weight loss phase. The goal is to lose 15 Kilos in the 8 week programme and then start going back to more sustainable weight...

Hi, I came here looking for the skinny (pardon the pun) on Noom. Doing some quick searches on the forums I see no mention of it. Should I talk a family member into trying a less "magical" diet plan? Regards, Ian

One and a half pounds off this week. This reverses last week's gain and indicates me starting to move in the desired direction again. Planning to leave beer and cider to the gym bunnies! Have a great week everyone. Kind regards, Ian

Something tells me that in years to come people will consider monitoring weight loss on a weekly basis as being unhelpful. Over the period of a month the weekly measurements do help show us trends but the individual weeks can give us jarring results. Not entirely sure that the problem with...

It certainly is Mary! Beer & Cider have given me a 100% FAIL rate on the SW plan. Someone who is better at the tech than I needs to explain to me why Beer and Cider seem to weight more than lead a week after consumption. As it is, I plan to give up beer completely, ignoring Lent to make it a...

Sadly I must report a gain this week. I will attribute it to the Beer I had with my sisters over the weekend and being a bit fast & loose with interpretation of "the plan" over the weekend. I am switching back to whiskEy and plan to have reversed this blip by this time next week. Congrats to...

The Iceland Slimming World branded sausages are Syn Free on EE and I find them tasty! Get some money off vouchers from your SW Consultant and give them a try. Kind regards, Ian

2 1/2 lbs off means I continue to move closer to the next room. Seems like the program works if we do not sabotage ourselves. To those that gained. Draw a line under it and amaze yourself with your results from staying on plan this week to come. Kind regards, Ian

I am really pleased with this week's result despite a bit of a (beer free) session on Saturday. I lost another 2 1/2 Lbs giving me my 2 Stone award and I got my Silver Body Magic award too. All in all not a bad week. 2015 might not be a complete bust after all. Congrats to all who have...

So sorry to hear that Orla. I'm sure that you and Donna will reverse your gains over the next week. To everyone else continuing to lose - congratz and keep up the good efforts. Kind regards, Ian

4.5 lbs closer to the next room. The last few weeks have been tough but at last I am making some progress. Best of luck with everyone else's efforts to start posting in the 16s! Regards, Ian

I am very pleased to report 4.5 lbs off this week. Seems you might have been correct about the efforts being enough Orla. This also gives me my Club 10 :D I trust that everyone else has equally pleasing results for them. Regards, Ian

Be very careful with beer Amanda. I do not understand the science of why it is such a problem on this eating plan but I have found beer and cider to be the two most problematic things to consume.:eek: Spirits and wine to the same alcohol content do not seem to have the drastic effect that beer...

@Orla - I was pretty good most of last week but the weekend saw my "hollow legs" return. (Good days, bad weeks. Good hours, bad days...) :17729: Even where I was being naughty I tried to make sure I was having some superfree with it. - A LOT of salad has been eaten which is saying something as...

Congrats on that Orla! You are SOOO close to goal. I expect that you will have a bottle of Syns or two in celebration when you get that target! If I lose that much I'll have to run around in the shower to get wet. Trying to get my head around the plan again. It's my old Bette Noire of not...

Put up two lbs this week. No major transgressions I can think of, just the standard "salad dodging" of old. Forcing myself to have side salads with everything this week. I shall return and I shall get that club 10% before the end of the month! Congrats to all who lost and comfort to all who had...

Congrats to Snow and LianneJane on their inspirational losses! I lost 1lb but hope to do even better next week. Have a great week folks. Kind regards, Ian

Best of luck to everyone weighing in today/tonight. May there be many happy losses for all. Kind regards, Ian

I am pleased and surprised with a two pound loss that marks my return to the downward trend of my weight. The surprise is that I was away from home eating out on Friday/Saturday/Sunday and doing a LOT less exercise. I was expecting to have put on weight or at best STS. I am determined to...

Another 2lbs closer to joining the 16s. Well done to all losing and support to those struggling with the new variant of the plan. Regards, Ian

Congratulations Guru!

Three and a half pounds closer to the desired exit this week. That door will be in my history! :cool:

A steady flow of losses this week. Well done people! I managed to lose 3.5 this week and that seemed like a poor showing compared to most of the class. There were several people with twice my loss! :eek: I am happy that it is heading in the right direction again. Only one more pound to get rid...

... then Ian appeared. Best of luck with today's weigh in folks. Not too sure how I will have done. I really did not give the new plan any space this week. Having looked at it last Wednesday and thought - perhaps after I am back to where I was before my 5lbs gain. With any luck I will have...

Hello again hello. Happy New Year! A half pound off over Christmas and New Year sees me qualify for this room again. This time I hope to exit by the other door. I expect there will be others here entertaining the same plan.

Hi all, I've been AWOL for a while now :missing:, since my big 5lbs gain. Things have been pretty full on over Christmas and I went to Budapest for New Year. When I went to weigh in yesterday there was a half pound loss over the previous weigh in. Only 4 and a half more to get back to...

Hi all, I missed my weigh in on Tuesday as I was attending a carol service that my nieces were singing in. I should have attended another meeting yesterday but did not get out of the shop I am volunteering for before the kick off. My plan is to weigh in at yet another meeting at 17:30 Thursday...

Hi Nicole, :welcome: Last week was not a great one for me, that is why I found this thread to help pull me past my recent - wobble. :break_diet: For not feeling connected to the image magic (I think that is what it is called) part of a meeting, I heartily recommend volunteering to become a...

Thanks Elvisfan, Alykins and Blanco. I knew the beer would carry a price though I was not aware of just how high a price. A months loss gone in a weekend. Still, onward and downward. I have been on plan since the morning after the weigh in. The switch to proper cold weather seems to have...

The consultant in my group mentioned it at our last meeting. I believe that it will be called extra extra easy - or some such. We were not given many details but I gather than things like the food directories will no longer be 100% valid. I guess they do it every so often in order to generate a...

Seeking a friend for the end of the diet plan... Hi Ian here, Hope men are welcome too. I have been on plan since August 1st and have been happy enough with my progress, until this week. :gen147: At weigh-in on Tuesday I came in with a stonking 5lb gain. A weekend of drinking beer and being...

5lbs on sees me at 18 stone even. I hope to return next week. A catastrophe of a week for me taking me out of the room and back to the 18 to 17 room. May those seeking to exit through the other door make great strides towards or through it in my absence. :wave_cry: Ian

:eek: Up 5lbs and not a happy bunny at all about it. Seems that the beer has done me in again. Props to everyone that got a STS or a loss. I hope to join you in celebratory mode again next week. Kind regards, Ian - and then depression set in! :break_diet:

Being really good all week but still I fear that the beer and a few treats over the weekend will catch up with me tonight. :sigh: Still, I'm reminded of Sean Connery's tagline in Family Business - "Don't do the crime, if you can't do the time." I will have the same stoicism if faced with a...

Snowbryneich, I've seen this post several times since you posted it and feel compelled to respond. I imagine that drawing a line under it and moving forward is likely a better strategy than giving a blip power by giving it a name. There will be blips in any journey. Treat them as such and get...

You'll have that shiny sticker next week Amanda. Delayed gratification is the name of the game. Well done you! 1.5 lbs off for me this week. Feels like a cheat as I ate more than I thought that I should have and even indulged in really poor eating and drinking for my Birthday. As it's behind...

I tend to worry more about whether they understand me. There have been occasions where mockney Londoners have not understood me as a tactic in discussions about solutions. I struggle to retain a Christian attitude in the face of that but ... "Beidh cuma cad a bheidh a" - whatever will be will...

I understand that back in the dark days of soviet Russia, Moscow university language school taught Irish (Gaelic) as a gateway language to the other European languages from the Cyrillic (sp?) languages of the USSR. They don't even use the same alphabet. As I recall Irish is very easy (ha!) to...

It is excellent to hear of someone getting to mark a check next to their achievement list. The sheer hope that conveys for all of us is superb. You are already at a BMI that is lower than my target will put me at. Attainable goals and step by step, spoon by spoon, fork by fork we will get...

Thanks SummerDiary and Orla, That lets me do the math and see that I got the 8lbs off :checkmark green: that then seemed like an awful lot of weight. I guess it is the same thing they talk about with people in service industry roles. £90 (130€) to fix a tap seems a bargain when the water is...

Two and a half pounds off this week. Not fast enough to get out of this category this year but five times faster than last week! For myself I actually feel better now. At this point the energy/lethargy mix changes incline and the effect of carrying around a stone and a half less weight makes the...

That is an excellent result Orla. Looks like you will get to spend Christmas in the lower BMI category following your current trend. Well done! That has important health implications I understand. Do you (or anyone else) happen to remember which week we were given the Present Label to write...

2 1/2 Lbs off for me this week. Got my 1 1/2 Stone award but still feel like I should have got more. Will I ever be satisfied? I was writing the certificates for the group this week and it is an eye opener to see how important every weigh in is for the person that is weighed. It really is a...

I am optimistic of getting the 2lbs off that I need to get my one and a half stone award. I have been rather on plan this week. Today while at lunch with a friend who is back from Canada I had DIET COKE and CAESAR SALAD. Very unlike me but whatever it take to continue the journey. I am with the...

Welcome, :welcome:find someone to invite you to a class and avail of the plan. (Letting them get a free week from introducing a member) What have you got to lose apart from some unwanted weight? The slimming world website has a 7 day sample menu plan. The first day of which lists the following...

Half a pound off this week. If I do not get more with the program I will be here a LONG time. I need to be that (not so) Little Engine that Could. Have a great week folks. Ian

Lost half a pound. Like Snow this is better than I was expecting. The chill in the air, the darker evenings and life in general see me not as motivated to walk a couple of extra miles each day. I get that we are still ten degrees warmer than it will be by Feb but it is how I feel. Going to try...

Wow! Well done...

Perhaps it is the addition of chicken that takes it to "special" territory. Chicken is a free food but sometimes when we alter the structure of food we can no-longer consider it syn free. e.g. Berries that are cooked are no longer free. (Or so I'm given to understand) Lower calorie density food...

Hi all, A 1lb loss this week brings me into this category. Hopefully we all get to move on to the next zone really soon. :wave_cry: regards, Ian

Thanks Emma, 1lb off did it for me. I am about to post on 17 to 16. See you there soon!:wave_cry: Regards, Ian

1lb off which is better than I was expecting with my BUrger & Chips with drink on Saturday. Props for all this weeks losses. Regards, Ian

Amanda, You might get lucky and not have the effect register immediately. Do not make the assumption that the scale with do anything specific and even if it did. You draw a line in the sand and move forward, not back. Miss Slinky is supposed to be based upon you over a period of time, not just...

OK. Hopefully this is my last day in the 18 weight zone and tomorrow I will have lost that last half pound keeping me in this zone. If I post again tomorrow I will be looking for the number of someone who can do lipo for me! Ian

Hi Ladies, Tomorrow is going to be the most off piste day yet. Going to see The Imitation Game with a friend at the BFI tomorrow. Full on Burger and Chips for dinner beforehand and likely copious quantities of good Irish WhiskEy to wash the day along. To this point I have been rather good...

Eat up your Syns. You earned them! I82much, Might well be that you need to eat more. Your loss to date would suggest that you would be aware but not eating enough can hamper weight loss. Our body goes into starvation mode. Enjoy ALL your syns for the week and revel in a better loss next...

I went looking to see if I could find a Mr Sleek one last night but failed to find one. That said I think I would rather have another stone off than a cert and an extra sticky. YMMV Props on your Mrs Slinky! We can never know where our example helps others to carry their burden; I expect that...

Thanks SnowB. Not sure that I deserve it, the guy I was up against has been a motivator for me but the boost was nice. :D Having small losses or STS when you are *actually* trying can be so demotivating. As I'm sure that everyone is aware - I expect we all have unlooked for good weeks and...

Thanks very much. Now to find code for Mr Sleek.:D

Looks like great results this week. Well done everyone! I managed to lose 4lbs This gave me my 1 Stone award I won slimmer of the week I was voted Mr. Sleek 2014. *LOL* All in all a rather nice meeting. If only they could all go like that. Have a great one. Regards, Ian

1.5 lbs off - thank God. I was beginning to feel like the weight was going to stay permanently at the same level. I have been naughty this week and still got away with it. I also need to step over my line and be extra good not to have it catch up on me next week. Today I handed in my fit sheets...

Hi Orla, In my class there will be both. I gather that it is one of the things left to the consultant's discretion. No doubt it helps with recruiting new bodies! Have a great weigh in all. I'm off to buy some running shoes as extra exercise is likely my next move. Regards, Ian

Very naughty. Put your line in the sand, step over it. Weight tomorrow and pray(hope) for the smallest possible effect. Next week be super on plan and work back towards goal. So long as it it not compounded, it's only a blip! I'm being a bit naughty today myself. I got my new Air Fryer that I...

Hi Barbie, Food intake wise I believe that I am doing ok. Alas the weather (in particular the wind) has me being a LOT less active. There is something of the bear going into hibernation for the winter about how this weekend has gone so far. Noting terribly off piste as regards the food plan...

Thanks Lentil2 and Samantha26, I went the side salad route and really quite enjoyed the chilli. I expect that I will spend some time searching out the hottest chilli powder I can buy in a UK supermarket over the next few days. Regards, Ian

How does this fit in with Easy Extra. How many syns per serving from a Chilli made in this way?

@snowsheep91 First off, commiserations it sucks to have a gain. :bighug: Brokenmirrors and I are keeping food diaries this week. I gather that BrokenMirrors is doing SAS which sounds even more extreme boot camp. Join us and take control again. @orla Do report back on your results with the...

Thanks for this. Just picked up a new slow cooker from Lidl today. I have the makings of the SW Bolognaise standing by. Cycling the machine through it's first 60 min boil of half a liter of water. When I clean it after that I will follow this advice. I had intended to brown it in a saucepan...

Half a pound on. I shall go hang my head in shame while I fill in the dunces food diary for the week (weaK?) Oh well, I'm getting that stone award next week. Not such a great 2nd week of a 12 week countdown, though I did get my Christmas Book and some of the stuff in it looks very tasty...

That's the spirit Amanda, refuse to BE the spanner! Every step you take, every bit of energy you exert is taking you closer to goal! Not for us the bikes of Tour de France winners... we need the bikes that are used on "call the midwife". The label needs to read "some effort required." I trust...

Yes ladies, I'm with both of you on this. Though my consultant did suggest that I might not have been having enough syns... Like the old Bob Monkhouse joke about people laughing at the idea of him being a comedian... they're not laughing now... There is no chance it is too few syns this week...

Gutted to have a STS this week. I thought that I was being pretty good though the scales grade me as "could try harder" - story of my life. Jensonbuttongirl & BarbieGirl - Next week we defy physics with astounding losses! Props to SnowSheep91 on her award and to all the losers for continuing to...

A shout out to the Ruby club! Best of weigh ins to all the ladies, (and Gents) May no-one find a gain! :scale: I've just consumed two mugs of espresso in the hopes of having a slimtea reaction! It is over 10 years since I have made espresso at home - strange that I still have a stovetop...

Sounds so much nicer than my Mushy Pea Curry - again. If you keep to plan longer term and at least remain aware of the plan; it should only be a minor blip! Bon Appétit! Regards, Ian

I'm Ian and I'm a recovering serial weigher. Two years ago I was checking my weight after every visit to the smallest room. Weekly weigh ins and the sheer madness of how you can have good loses on weeks when you were *bad* and have gains when you were good as gold taught me to leave that trauma...

Tigz, How weight loss manifests is non linear, you can see good losses on weeks where you did not do so well following plan. It is also possible to see gains or STS on weeks where you feel that you were fully on plan. Draw a line in the sand and move on. Evaluate yourself over a longer period...

Hi Minimammy, Nice results so far! I would say welcome but I think that you took a wrong turn at the "Slimming world - weekly weigh in". This is the thread for the the other T - Tuesday. There is a Thursday weigher thread there (I checked). Not sure how to link to another thread; so I won't...

Ah, my Mom is the same. Even thinking about the smell of a coffee slice makes her ack! Possibly worth asking a question on a nutrition forum about what you could eat that would gently encourage return to a natural rhythm. This was how I discovered that I have an allergy to Kiwi fruit...

@Tanyalina: Try black coffee in the morning. Apparently it does wonders... Regards, Ian

Looks to me like we all need to agree to put a line in the sand and step over it. What is past is past, time to dust ourselves off and get moving in the direction that we want to find ourselves. I would *REALLY* like to get my one stone badge this week but am not really feeling the cravings...

2.5 off this week. That erases last week's gain from my memory and puts me within a hop, skip and jump of a 1 Stone award next week.:wavey: I did start doing body-magic after last week's debacle. Einstein is generally referred to as having said that insanity is repeating the same things and...

Isn't it great that the NHS has cottoned on to diet "plans" like SW and started to prescribe them to people in need of help with getting their weight in hand? Some years back I had a doc prescribe Gym sessions in a Leisure Centre. Brilliant concept but they were only valid during times that I...

A day late and a pound and a half on. :break_diet: I knew I was not being on plan but decided that I had to weigh in and take the hit. Missed my usual meeting yesterday due to family commitments so went to a different meeting. I do hope that the consultant doesn't think I'm trying to hide my...

STS. After two weeks. I guess I knew that I was not being 100% on plan. How many gallons of peppermint tea per pound off? Back to basics. The original 7 day plan on the main site I guess. Gratz to all who keep losing! Regards, Ian

Best of luck with the weigh in this week ladies. I am in Ireland and will NOT be finding a new group of people to humiliate myself in front of this week. Trying to be good and will get back into my own approach after I get back to London tomorrow. ... and a lot of Mushy Pea Curry will be...

The whole weightloss journey is an enigma, wrapped in a mystery. There seems to be no correlation between being good and getting a good result -that week. Or with being bad then seeing it on the scales at weigh in. There is often a lag of a week or two. As I do not write advertising copy I am...

Moolumps, I would not advise further reducing your Syns. The consultant gave you a number and you have been able to continue weight loss with the lower usage of syns. This fits the category of what do I do before I send my "gadget" back as defective. I would suggest that following the...

I have the same experience. Consultant told me that I should be having 20-25 syns a day. Previous "go around" did help in getting past the Catholic sins/syns thing. From observing my previous group and my own experiences in that group, weeks when syns were fully used had higher weight loss than...

Sounds like the correct behaviour of someone who is going to do the plan over the long term. It would have been easier to deprive yourself and set up negative associations with the plan for yourself. Instead you did what the plan told you to do, you did NOT go hungry and you STILL lost weight...

Finally completed preparation. That is an AWFUL lot of food to serve TWO. :candledinner: YMMV! Very, very, very Tasty. Struggling with the salad but I guess we need our 1/3 superfree no-matter what we are eating! I think that I will dial back on the lemon next time. Very tangy but more than I...

Congrats to all the losers. :happy096: :welcome: to our newest members. Some of those numbers look very impressive indeed. I am very envious. This week I managed 4.5 lbs off. (much to my relief.) It is going in the right direction again now! Have a great week folks. Regards, Ian

Well done Tracey. Barbie Girl you know that it could have been a lot worse. Best of luck with today everyone and may we all get the will to make it to our goals quickly - but safely! Regards, Ian

Munching my way thorough another week. To plan this time but it seems like an AWFUL lot of food I'm getting through. I guess the scales will let me know come Tuesday. Have a great weekend people. Regards, Ian

I am about to visit town to buy the ingredients of Mushy Pea Curry and some extra for a nice Butternut Squash Risotto that someone kindly provided me with a recipe for on this board. My understanding is that while YUMMY and disgusting sounding - Mushy Pea Curry is a great loss leader in the SS...

Thanking you kind sir. That's Worcester sauce, Parmesan and a lemon added to my shopping list. (The base of which is the ingredients for Mush Pea Curry and a Butternut Squash.) Will pick up some sort of a chicken stock cube but ordinarily I use veg marigold when most recipes call for it. I...

Not sure if it is appropriate to post this here but on the basis that I will offer an apology if I have broken protocol here...:confused: I am hoping to find a Butternut Squash Risotto recipe that is EE friendly. Would like to get one that others have said is good as I have had mixed results...

As predicted I had a gain, only half a pound though - which is less than I was expecting. So a qualified success! :break_diet: Congrats to Bethanie and donkeysaurusrex on inspirational losses. Back on plan now I guess. Plan. No sessions of Cider and pub Roasts at the weekend. Learn one or two...

Gratz in advance for your 40th! I feel the need to point out that 40th Birthday celebrations are NOT going AWOL. There is a well known dispensation for such monumental milestones. As I understand it the dispensation is similar to the St. Patrick's Day exemption for Irish people who have given...

Lumina :welcome:to our little group. Pull up a chair and join in any time you have something to say! Best of luck on your journey. Regards, Ian

Bethanie, Totally with you on the online shopping and veg/fruit choices. I once ordered stuff from Ocado online only to have them deliver two bags of spuds that were end of shelf life on the delivery day. I switched to Waitrose where they seem to have started their own service to damage control...

Hi Orla, Point One (1) I had seen the thread for the Ireland group. My Mom, in Dublin, is doing Slimming World and I pointed her at the thread for support with things like - Low Syn sausages. As other people on plan from Ireland will know, a LOT of stuff commonly available in supermarket on the...

Edit - Friday 29th. Managed to pick up three different types of the Alpen Light bars at Waitrose, Twickenham. For info, they are on special with 2 X 5bar boxes being £3.00 The Chocolate & Fudge ones are scrumdiddlyumptious! That's HEB sorted for the week! Regards, Ian

Thanks for that Bethanie, I expect that I will be visiting those supermarkets within walking distance of me today to see if I can pick up a box. I do like to have a stock of something in for when my brain switches over to "I'm gonna be bad" mode. Having tame bad options helps limit damage...

BrokenMirrors - Yes. Expat in London 25 years, for my sins. Still they are graceful enough hosts here in Blighty. Certainly they have not been starving me! Best of luck with that extra stone. Approaching the thing with "beginners eyes" might well give you the boost necessary to move on to the...

Our consultant said that she had tasted it and that it was like toffee crisp. Those with a sweeter tooth will be well served! Regards, Ian

Like Bill Gates realising that the internet was not going to be replaced with a M$ only version and turned Microsoft into an internet powerhouse in the course of a few weeks! Common sense is strangely uncommon but this sounds like the ideal HEB. :) Do Slimming World have to ratify the new...

Week two I managed to lose another 1.5 lbs. On the plus side this gave me my first half stone shiny sticker but to be honest I was hoping for better. :sigh: From reading minimins (rather than SW site) I believe that I never quite groked the 1/3 superfree rule for meals. Specifically that it is...

Nice to meet you all, I'm Ian. Tuesday was my second visit to local chapter of SW. I had an encouraging first week's loss of 6lbs. There's lots more to go so I expect that I will be posting highs and lows here again. I pray that my ongoing progress is in keeping with the other inspiring...

Syn Free Chips have to be considered a wonderful weapon in any arsenal. But I really do Love, love, love. Melon. Such a treat as a kid, Now I'm overdosing on the stuff as a free food! Regards, Ian

With contet of 300 g Chicken Breast 400 g arborio rice (Risotto Rice) 75 g Broad Beans 4 Spring Onions. 100 ml White Wine Vegetable stock 4 spray(s) Calorie Controlled Cooking Spray To serve 4 with a PP value of 10. I'm thinking that as most of the food is free on EE that a standard...

In response to Bindymag query "Does anyone know how many syns there are in weight watchers cookies?" From the Syns tool on the Slimming World site: Sultana & Cinnamon Cookies , each 2 syns on EE, Green & Red (original) All the other listed WW cookies are 4 (E/G/R) Hope that helps! Regards, Ian

Hi, First post on minimins! I have several Weight Watchers recipes that I am competent at making and was wondering if there is a way that I can get the SYN values of weight watchers recipes that have pro-point values? I'm thinking of the point free vegetable soup on WW and recipes like "...
