I weigh myself in scales in super drug as the wii and my ww scales have totally differant weights for me sometimes they differ by 1/2 a stone so try get a set of good scales or use boots/superdrug but stick to the same ones :)

I just started ww online yesterday and im trying to work out how many pro points in Batchelors cup of soup original chicken I can find it online but not sure if im pointing it right online it says 100g seving is 1pp does that mean that the box of 5 is only 1pp as the full box is 102g? if so...

I done slimming world and lost 2 1/2 stone i find sw easy to follow in winter (big bowls of soup ect) but very difficult to follow in the holidays wen im out and about with the kids (seen me sitting in macdonalds with a fruit bag ) or grabbin a sandwich as the bread allowance is very low it...

Thanks got 2 1/2 off with sw but finding the hot weather a stuggle as in winter i used to stock up of home made soups and winter stews ect . enjoying my white bread lol

changing from sw to ww but not got books yet any basic 0 point foods i should know couldnt wait to start lol just been sticking to 20 points all ww meals but enjoying my 2nd day so far :)

Does that mean the veggies are free thinking of changing from sw to ww but dont really want to go buy all the books just yet as spent a fortune on sw stuff (lost 2 and 1/2 stone but put 10 pounds back on ) so feeling a change might help

one of my friends is at target she tends to have an extra b choice every second day as she also uses 15 syns a day and this seems to work for her (she also dosnt go to class the weeks she goes over / under her 3lbs and pulls it back and goes the following week )

think rotisserie chicken is high in syns or isnt free because they inject the chickens with stuff to keep them moist

You have maintained so thats not to bad you may find next week you get a whopper of a weight loss as sometimes its just water ect stick with it and you will get there . The main thing is its not a gain :) xxx

Thats why I love sw u dont feel as if your on a diet :) have faith :)

cant see it in 2009 directory but had a flick thro and if i have to go there im gonna have breaded plaice with chips n peas 20.5 on red day 14.5 on green day instead of steaks which start at 30 odd for a small one

I always have a couple of boxes in as its a great standby very filling (well i eat the whole pack ) asda always seem to have in stock but morrisions it seems to come and go its about 85p a box

rump steak 10oz n baker is 32.5 but not sure how filling a 10oz steak would be . look online at the menu and ill see if the items are in the directory for you

a gamon steak is alot less syns than a steak they have steaks soaking in oil thats why they are so high a gamon steak and baked pot is 19syns

sorry 53 syns thats 60 was with chips

that would be a mixed grill in the directory a mixed grill with jacket pot and dressed side salad is 60.5

wetherspoons is really high for steaks will have a look for you

Such a good feeling isnt it :D. I have to buy loads of new clothes . I cleaned out all my bigger stuff and have since changed wardrobes with my oh and given him the big one cos mines has no clothes in it .:cry: have no skinny clothes as been overweight for 15 years now :eek: spent about 300...

seems good for the price :) love my gadgets

oh bugger:eek: thought that the chipolatas were 1 1/2 each had them all week too and have been top end of syns:mad:

:break_diet: Just had to have a glass wasnt even bothered until I read this post earlier. lets see if it turns to two glasses

you may not have put in the free foods part in the calculator

those ones are free:)

oh and shes now a skinny size 10 almost at target

I always use more at weekend but everyone is differant . you will need to trial and error my mate can can 15 every day no bother and still has 3-4lbs losses I get a pound :( but she eats loads of fruit takes me all my time to eat a banana

its rosie wine i lurve 26syns a bottle but so worth it :break_diet: tempted to open a bottle tonight had a takeaway last night but I did have good choices:)

well done xx find what your weakness is and find a sw alternative since EE came out I stick to it alot easier as I love my spag bol :)

I feel sorry for you I love my tin toms in spag bol and my kemma curry enjoy them while you can xx

you just have 1 healthy extra A and 1 B the rest of food thats free on red and green is free on extra easy also syns you take the lower value syns

Think it would be okay as a quick lunch the odd time as I wouldnt eat micro dinners all the time just great for the freezer :)

yeah saves me sitting in macdonalds with a bag of fruit starving myself the kids are quite good and say no we will go to pizza hut or carvary so mum can eat:D

what brand is the tinned spaghetti bolognese ?

Not sure if the lean mince woulkd work out the same as extra lean as when the put extra lean the cut all fat off with the lean some fat gets minced as well so even with draining (I do that with extra lean as well) dont think that would be much differance think its 12% fat in lean and 5% in extra...

I have a full breakfast about 5 days a week lean bacon , egg . sausage (syn free) beans and sometimes have french toast with my b choice . You could make it better on plan with mushrooms and tomatoes but I dont really do fruit/veg I find if I have full breakie in work I dont snack on rubbish :)

Also 1-2 lbs loss is what sw say you will lose on the plan but alot peeps get more than than me personally im a pound a week person but i dont eat a lot of fruit and veg so it may have been more if I do

to be honest it would be worthwhile going to class and buying the new books that way you have uptodate version and learn about extra easy xx

I personally find that if I cut down to around 1/2 my syns it keeps my weight loss as normal (tried cutting syns out completley and found I maintained or in some cases gained ) Just get back on the plan and you will be fine . :) xx

Nutri-grain Elevenses bar raisin 45g 8syns on all plans

You would probally be cheaper joining a class getting the books you need and then doing at home . I find ebays always way over priced for these items

ps thanks very much

:Dnot very good at maths does that work out 4.5 per portion then

the only go ahead i can see thet might be is (go-ahead yougurt breaks plain twin pack 18g 3.5 on all plans ) is it these ones? and the elevenses bar it depands on flavour

Any ideas how many syns in arribiata from pizza hut :) thanx

Who makes the go-ahead and what flavour is the bar

yes no added sugar squash all varieties are free

yes you can :)

in my directory Aberdeen angus beef burgers twin pack chilled 142g each burger on red 6.5 goes for the quater pounders as well

They may still have syns some brands are low in syns others are higher think its the asda ones that are low 1 1/2 or somthing but would need to check brand.

What kind is the express rice and ill have a look in directory for you :)

no they have syns and quite a few for tiny wee sausages . Morrisions eat smart sausages are free I have them with bacon and eggs . you can add mushrooms and tomatoes . I find it diffucult just on red day for snacks I use cold meat mostly

Well done xx

It makes a differance have a good consultant I just wish mine hadnt moved days she moved the class to the only day that I cant go:( Had classes 15miles nearer but liked her motavation .

depends when I miss for a few weeks its cheaper to rejoin but I always pay for keeping my record ( feel as done so good that I want it on my record ) bummer tho pay for missed weeks and you still dont get password!

when I am at work I like a warburtons roll filled with free sausage bacon and egg seems to stop me pickin with all the rest of the work

well done almost got your 1st sticker you must be so chuffed :)

My wee ones school is open but the schools car park is a skatin rink so cars cant go down it (council says its not likley to get done any time soon) so we have to pull in on a busy road with quarry lorries flying up and down its also a main road used when moterway closed/busy so how is...

:eek: I still rinse my extra lean mince just hate to see goo on it:jelous:

I struggle to eat fruit and veg and I had salad/cucumber ect the only way I eat tomatoes is tinned . Maybe thats why my weight loss has slowed alot been doing ex for about 8 months and only drop 1/2 -1 and gain quite easy Might go back to red green to try get rid of the weight gained at xmas...

My class was a real mix of things from cans diet coke to fry light as well as the super noodles n fruit and always full to the brim there was 110 last count to that group:) I sometimes would put in a pack morrisions eat smart sausages as they are a pain to get hold off most days

I just bought the wii just dance hoping that will get me a bit fitter and also have fun with the kids:)

yeah whole jar :) might give that one a try

I have the same problem not that I was ever very regular tried more water and just need to pee a lot more . I am goinfg to try a colon cleanser at the weekend see how i go after that :(

Good luck dont stress if you dont lose millions on my 1st week I lost 3.5 lbs but the two girls I joined with lost 7 and 9 but in overall I have lost more just being steady low weight losses
