I just looked on the off chance! I couldnt find any fromage frais with lower fat than that. I was happily eating away at it, thought I would make some 'free' ice cream and checked just in case!!

Hi there I was wondering if anyone could tell me if the eat smart fromage frais is synned or free? I have looked it up and says 4 1/2 syns. Then I look what others have said is free and this is on the list......could anyone confirm please Katie;)

mmmm I just had these with banana and my HE milk for dessert! They do turn the milk brown! My kids dont like them so thats a bonus for me!!

oooo I like the idea of keeping all the weekly syns in a box! but I suppose that way if you wanted to syn meat or oil etc, may prove a little difficult! I may try next week with the weekly syn thing!

Hey, just echoing what others say! I lot 2lb on my first week and ws gobsmacked! even my husband was shocked a the amount I had been eating! the 2nd and third week I was abit naughty, involving chocolate countain and choccy cake ;0) I still lost but a less amount 1lb and 1/2lb. This week I have...

I am very happy to say I lost 2lbs this week!! I WI at boots and also measure fat, I have los another 1% fat this week too!! I know 2lbs is not much compared to the people losing more (sure they have hidden secrets lol Jokes) but I feel really happy with myself!

Thanks Spuds, i'll let you know how I get on. I too am surprised of the things I can eat and amounts etc. Before I was really naught and just skipped meals which left me tired and grumpy and not shedding any weight! But I feel alot better, so far so good. I do feel motivated as I this site...

oooo thanks for the quick replies guys...I am new to all this, sure I read somewhere (not on this forum) that you could just have 1. But maybe that was 1 as a serving opposed to 2 x alpen lights. well this is my second week and not sure about my weight loss as I had problems with my scales but...

The title says it all really! I have had one fibre plus bar already today. (i'm doing a green day). I havent had my 2nd HEB so was wondering if I can have another bar, as I have the munchies as I am having wine which I have saved my syns for!! Thanks Katie :)

This was my 1st week and I STS :( I'm drawing a line as the scales I have at home are dodgy (honestly! lol I fluctuate up down even if I have just weight myself!):rolleyes: I am now going to WI at boots every tuesday morning. However, I lost 1% body fat since joining the gym 4 weeks ok so...

Thanks guys! Hmmmmm I actually dont feel like eating anything else today! will one day without 1 HEB be ok? Although thinking about it, could it have been a EE day? never done one as I dont know much about it but have only had 1 of each HE. i've eaten soooo much fruit today i'm feeling a...

Hi I have been doing a red day today which has been going ok, although continuously feeling hungry today. Anyway we had Spag bol for dinner and I was planning on having the pasta as one of my HEB, however we didnt have any wholemeal pasta, so do I now have to SYN this and find another HEB...

Yeh, I'm guessing i'll have a better picture of how I am doing next week. As my home scales are a bit rubbish kind of change how much you weigh almost each time!

HI, I was wondering the same! I asked an instructer at the gym and he said that I would probably notice i'm getting slimmer by the way my clothes fit first. As Tracey1000 explained your muscles are built, also bones become denser (a good thing means they are stronger!). I go 2-3 times a week to...
