oh well, it was a good thought whilst it lasted!!!!!

Yep! Theyre tescos own and theres 6 in a pack. I bought them yesterday for 'treat day' and didnt end up eating them. I nearly threw them away thinking theyd be too high but im glad i havent! I still dont think i quite trust the website though!!!

Well i used dried potatoes because its in the ingredients and i calculated it per 100g because thats the only amounts on the packet. Ive just re done it in case im doing it wrong and it seems that theyre only 1/2 syn each!! (that is if the nutritional information on the pack is right!!) I just...

Hi everyone Im baffled!!! Ive tried syning some potato cakes on the slimming world website and theyre coming up as 1/2 syn each if I use dried potatoe as the green food allowance (which they do have on the ingredients) or 45syns each if i use no free food allowance! I know potato cakes arent...

Look at things youd usually snack on before sw - sweet or savoury things? Or do you usually take sugar in your coffee or tea? Is there anything particular youve been missing? Ive found i lose the most when i have between 5 and 10 syns. Id offer to take your syns off your hands for you......

Eeeek....im having to weigh in at 9.30am wednesday morning instead of my usual 7.00pm and im a bit worried that ill be a lot lighter first thing in the morning and next week when im back to normal ill have 'gained'. Does anyone weigh in at different times from week to week and how do you get the...

Mine was shallow too!!! Mine is my hen do (abroad), wedding and honeymoon! ive always felt self conscious in a bikini and get that feeling of dread when it comes to holiday time but this year, im determined to not have that feeling for the first time. And i hate having to dress to cover my lumpy...

Use your syns on whatever your feeling like! I find that i lose most when i have about 10 a day. If i need some chocolate and havent used any syns, ill have a crunshie (9 1/2) but other than than, it can vary. I prefer whitener in brews so if i use that is 1 syn a cup. I like crisps so i can...

I plan a week in advance. We shop once a week so we need to know exactly what were buying as well not have time otherwise. It sounds a bit ultra organised but i have a notebook where we make a note of the week and what were having for breakfast, dinner & teas. Ive found its the best way to stay...

Haha well congrats to you and your friend!!!!! I have operation hen do, wedding and honeymoon!!!!!! Were going to spain for the hen do with loads of skinny minnies and i cannot look like 'the fat one'!!! I have to loose about a dress size to get into my wedding dress which is 7 months away...

Well what a set of B%*@!£$!! I can understand not wanting to tell people at work. I had the same when i first started where i thought everyone would be winding me up and saying what are you loosing weight for but when i told them i found that they were all actually 'secretly' dieting anyway and...

me and my partner go together and dont stay for a few reasons. Our weigh in is at 7pm and by time it comes we are starving and need some tea! We used to stay when we first started but after a couple of months our consultant moved and since weve had a different one every week because they need a...

Were going to enjoy ourselves, have the stuff weve been craving (like maccy d's!) but stick to plan where we can. Get christmas out of the way then, hopefully, well be glad to get back on plan!!!!!!

Obviously everyone has a different view on this and i can see why....after eating a meal i dont fancy going peeling a load of fruit to then try and force down when your already full. Id rather have something with my meal. But saying that...if your like my partner who will eat very few...

When youve decided on your 'target weight', whether its your official sw target or a figure you have in your head, how have you decided on it? :confused: I have an idea in my head but thats soley going off other peoples weights of a similar height and how they look. x x x

In that situation, i dont think thered be many people who wouldnt do the same! Youve done really well so far to get back on track so dont beat yourself up over a pack of biscuits (even if they were luxury ones!) If nothing else, youll think twice if faced with the same thing again. Youve had a...

itd have to be something like a full box of chocolates for 1 syn (but theyd have to be good chocolates!) You know what, id even settle for a mint aero for 1 syn...lets not be greedy!

I have about a stone to loose. Good luck, especially with christmas temptations looming .....:angeldevil:

My wedding dress! Thats tucked away at our house ready for next year. And to be able to have a hen do abroad and not feel ashamed of myself around a load of skinny minnies in bikinis! x x

Seriously, take it 1 day at a time. If you binge one day or have something bad, draw a line under it and start again the next day. Try not to think of it by the week at the minute. Think about it a day at a time. A lot of people would just decide to have a break from it if theyre going through...

If you know that its every night you fancy something, save your syns!!! we try (if we can!) to do that at weekends and well have a crunchie on a saturday & sunday night. is it savoury or sweet things your craving? If i havent got many syns left and want some choc at the end of the night ill have...

Hi everyone.... Im sure ive seent his somewhere on here before but ive searched and searched and cant find it!!!! Im looking for the syn value for Asdas chocolate eggs...the only like mini eggs but even smaller. Theyre called teeny weeny eggs....but i think they used to be called something...

3 1/2 off this week. Yay!!!! That the biggest loss i have had so far!!!!!! :scale:

LOVE this idea.......think id have to work on how i could do it on a cheap scale though x x x

Haha i like that idea! Booking days off for yourself like you do at work!!!!! x

Today was chopped banana with total 0%, honey (1 syn) and a chopped kiwi and grapes. It meant i could have my bread for dinner. I usually alternate something like that with poached egg and beans on toast (or scrambled if i crack the yolk!) dippy egg and soldiers...yum!, bacon and cheese on toast...

This is our first christmas on slimming world and weve said if were at parties or out anywhere, we'll eat and drink what we want but try to stay on plan for the days in between. What are you planning on doing during the season of chocolate and alcohol (and very little in the way of exercise!)...

Who the freaking hell keeps voting for Wagner?!! :doh:

Love the idea of a game lila loves! Were not sure what our favours are yet so we might have to consider that when we choose them. Ive heard a few people that have make biscuits..... id love to make some biscuits of some sort i think theyd be a really nice personal touch. Maybe ice peoples names...

Aww thank you all!!! I think im going to dose myself on the lemsip, honey and lemon and soup. I may have to get my oh to make me soup! Love the sound of the spinach and leek muso mama!!!!

I feel like im about to die!! Im full of man flu and ive now lost my voice! I dont want to go off plan and i know that the minute i start on the medicine and lozenges i been on my way down that well known creek without a paddle and no chance of making my way back! Does anyone know of any low...

Hi Everyone Im looking for some ideas or displaying little quotes or sayings at our wedding next year. Ive got a nice little collection of my and my dads favourite sayings that id love to include as part pf our day but i dont want to just scatter them across tables in case people dont really...

Weve had chilli, wedges, rice and i tried a homemade garlic bread which was actually quite good - bread sprayed with frylight, sprinkled with a finely chopped garlic clove and cheese and put in the oven for the last 10 mins. YUM!!!!!

My inspiration is my dream wedding dress! I get married next August and i bought my wedding dress whilst is about 1 dress size smaller. So its a case of i HAVE to fit into it!!!! And to be able to feel comfortable on honeymoon in a bikini! I think buying a dress is a brill idea, as long as your...

Stacey, how long did you cook it in the slow cooker for? And was it on low, med or high?

Ive found on sw ill try more new things that i might not have done. One of the first things we tried is bacon and chicken pasta, just bacon, chicken, pasta, passata/tin tomatoes and whatever veg you fancy and cheese on top. Great as a tea with leftovers for tomorrows lunch! As well as searching...

I do our shopping online so on a thursday/friday night, i sit down with oh and see what each of us fancy, what weve got on through the week (for quick meals, etc) and what we have in the cupboard and work from there. I just try to do at least 1 new meal every week (we tried the smash pizza last...

I have the ww brown danish and i think its the best bread you can get for the amount your allowed. 3 slices for a heb. You honestly cant find a replacement for bread. But just choose where you use it carefully. I find you enjoy it more if you have something like a chip butty with tea rather than...

We do this...we get chinese. We have a chicken fried rice, chips & curry sauce (between 2 of us that is!) Then a chocolate bar - usually something like an aero that we dont usally have enough syns for any other day. Your right it does keep you going. And i think it helps when youve been really...

Were having chips, lamb koftas, golden rice and peas.

Its not exactly 'treat size' but if i can save my syns for the day have a crunchie (9 1/2). Yum!!!!!!

Well done Stacey! x
