    Head Hunger vs Stomach Hunger?

    I also thought syns etc could be used for treats.... surely treats are treats and often eaten when there is no actual hunger. Sian and Stacy you've both had incredible losses so far so it can't do that much harm. Zombiecakes you also are showing the plan works the way you have been using it...

    Big Meets Bigger

    I've watched both of the first two programs. The Greece family have something in common with the American sisters and that is they are in denial of being bigger than they once were. I myself think of me as being smaller than I actually am, and because of this avoid mirrors and photos etc. It's...

    quick hexA question

    There is a syn-free rice pudding recipe on here somewhere... saw it a while ago but I've never tried it out. The HExA choice is for calcium so yeah its pretty much milk or cheese, or cheese and milk regardless of what day you are following.

    Head Hunger vs Stomach Hunger?

    Alice first of all congratulations on the 5lbs loss and focus on that. My 'head hunger' comes from habit more than anything else. I am used to snacking on crap throughout the day and as with anything that is suddenly taken away it takes time to realise that things need to change. I need to...

    17 Weeks, 17 pounds... can I do it!

    The only thing stopping you from achieving and possibly smashing through that target is YOU. Stay focused, remember your goal, stick to the plan and enjoy the thought of walking round in that bikini. Good luck.

    Egg noodles

    I used to eat the straight to wok ones but on cooking the dried egg noodles I don't notice the difference. The best thing is they are free free free.... mmmmm! Good luck Lynsey, you'll soon get the hang of it and it will all become second nature.

    Pigged Out...

    Thanks guys for all your lovely comments. I am guilt free today and ready to tackle another day of lb fighting. Square crisps are my saving grace with slimming world. I find the salt and vinegar flavour a real treat to eat on an evening. The multipack bags (22g) are 5 syns and are so scrumptious.

    .... I am so full and have eaten loads this evening. BUT I haven't eaten beyond my syns or my healthy options and have had a binge on free foods rather than the usual naughty stuff! DH is amazed as he has just watched me scoff 2 bags of Square Crisps!! I am so proud of myself. :)

    I had this for a quick lunch today. I have never attempted the SW chips before, but I have to say I added peri-peri seasoning and they were the best chips I have ever had, diet or non-diet! I know chips don't really go with salad but I really fancied some with caesar dressing mmmm.

    First shake down... please tell me it gets better

    Thanks guys... I have no intention of giving up, I have too much at stake for this. I made it up with warm water (it was cold this morning!) and mixed it with a hand blender. I am just a really fussy eater and not liking shakes anyway. Going to give the soup a whirl in a bit.
