It is doable to lose 94lbs. I also do Slimming World from home and have lost 70lbs so far. I have found various internet sources which are invaluable for support. This place is good as are many of the facebook groups.

I'm going to try these tomorrow, I have mixed the porridge with banana and custard mullerlight as my local Asda had no vanilla. Hope they taste nice. Will probably just do half the mixture. I usually split my HEB on extra easy day so I can still have a slice of bread later in the day.

I went to the Drs because my periods had stopped. The blood test showed nothing but the scan showed cysts. I also have a small patch of facial hair on my chin. Ask your Dr for a scan/further investigations because even if it isn't PCOS heavy and painful periods need to be checked out.

I love the Thai style salmon fishcakes with sweet chilli sauce which are 1 syn each of red and EE.

I have PCOS and have been doing SW at home since January and have lost 4 stone 5lbs. I do mainly green as I love carbs. I usually do around 4 days green and the others EE or red.

I wondered if anyone knew the syns for the tendercooked gammon in a cheese and leek sauce. I thought it was free until I double checked and think it's a different range of gammon that comes with two that is free. It tasted far too cheesy to be free. Thanks.

I didn't weigh myself this week!A bad week, my Gran died unexpectedly so I've not done so great and didn't wanna feel more down. I've alternated between not eating and binging. But I've been back on Track yesterday and today, my measurements haven't gone up so that's something!

Well done on all your losses this week. I lost 7lbs! Which is only 5lbs really as I put 2lbs on last week. Plus 2.5lbs for last week and this week. I've felt quite sick all week so not felt like snacking as I usually do and mainly had just my 3meals a day. My target is to lose 4stone by June...

I did the butter chicken and the custard tart, both were delicious but I thought that the custard tarts didn't need the orange zest.

Noodles with prawns and peppers with a 1/2 a packet of blue dragon chow mein sauce (2.5 syns)

I did this last week. My weigh in is a Thursday and I spent the weekend binging and when weighing myself I had put on the same as you have. I got back on plan(sort off) and ended up with a 2lb gain but I know I can get back on track. We all have these days, if healthy eating was easy we'd all...

I resisted the half a bag of galaxy counters my boyfriend left on the coffee table!Hope they're gone by the time I finish work

Has anyone seen these in the supermarket?Where are they kept? I've tried Asda, Sainsburys and Tesco near me and none of them seem to have them unless I'm looking in the wrong place.

Sorry for the late update was miffed off at myself all day but I'm over it now. I gained 2lbs, I know why as I binged at weekend. This week is going to filled with plenty of fruit and water.

Honey-glazed pork, mash potato, cabbage and carrots.

I was thinking of giving up fizzy drinks or bread.I drink a lot of fizzy drinks and it can't be that good for me. With bread even though I have nimble or weight watchers danish I end up using my HEB on them as well as some syns and it would be nice to try some more cereals or cereal bars. I...

Well done everyone on their losses was a great week for us all. My aim this week is to do some exercise. I think I've mastered the food side but I'm still so lazy when it comes to exercise.

After weighing myself today I've lost 5lbs :) and also realised I'd lost 15lbs before now not 14lbs. So that's 20lbs since January :happy036:

I weigh in the mornings, I'm looking forward to it this week as I've been the best I've been since starting and have had 2 bad weeks. So got my fingers crossed for a good loss to kickstart things again.

I find when I use my full 15 I lose more than when I try and stay under 10.

I really like peppermint tea it's so refreshing, Aldi do a great one. I also like Twinings Camomile and Spearmint and their flavoured green teas.

They sound like they are going to be yummy, especially the roasted red pepper.

I don't ever weigh my pasta. I usually use the tricolour for pasta shapes, although I am trying to have more wholemeal pasta, like Britmum I have PCOS so unrefined pasta/rice is supposed to be better for you.

How's everyone's week going?I'm hoping for a good loss this week as I've been really good, no cheating at all! Debs I'm outside of Manchester towards the Bolton side so not too far away!

I do Slimming World from home and weigh-in on a Thursday. I've lost a stone since January.

Doing the plan from home I'm guilty of weighing myself alot. I am getting better at controlling the urge to weigh. Last week the scales showed STS most of the week and it was only the last few days the numbers started to fall.

You need to have your syns without taking between 5-15 syns the plan won't work as you need all components of the plan.

I've just come across these and wondered if anyone knew the syn value? As I clicked on a link saying it was 4 syns on facebook advertisement but on the nutritional information it says 43.1 kcal per 100g so surely using the rule of 20=1 syn then it would be a little over 2 syns. The nutritional...

I like peppermint tea and it helps with digestion. Twinings also do a spearmint and camomile which is great. I agree with other people on this thread that fruit teas are always a disappointment. Twinings often have freebies on the website which lets you choose two teabags to be sent to you.

I use beechams powder which I assume is free as it's powdered asprin and caffeine Beechams Powders - 20 powders - Bootsand add some hot water and sugar free cordial.

For salad dressings to be free they need to be less than 40kcals per 100ml. Kraft light french dressing is free.

sw quiche made with broccoli, ham, onion and pepper with lettuce and tomatoes.

I do 7 shifts in a row every 4 weeks and work 00.30 until 9am. After the first couple of days I can change my eating times, so will have breakfast before work, dinner at work and tea when I get in. However, on the first day I'm up for most of the day before I go so I try and keep everything...

I am doing Slimming World because I am really, really fat and always have been. However, now I'm getting older it's affecting me a lot more aching knees, low confidence and trying to stay in the house as much as possible. I have PCOS and want to have a baby so I need to lose the weight to give...

I was wondering the same thing, thanks eveyone for clearing it up. I love eggs and have 2-3 everyday.

I have to stop doing this. I weigh in at home so can't chuck the scales. I find if I've lost a bit more than I thought I will be a little less strict and if I've put on I will get all depressed. I haven't weighed myself for a couple of days though so hopefully can go until my next weigh in!

Can anyone tell me the syn value of these crisps? Nutritional information: Calories 82 Sugars 1.6g Fat 1.7g Saturates 0.2g Thanks :)

I have soda water and add some sugar free squash into it, my current favourite is the robinsons kiwi and strawberry

Glad this was asked got a raspberry one made up at home for after work treat:) off topic but Cityredgirl are you a Salford City Reds fan? if so, me too!

Glad to hear others have been successful at home. I have done the classes in the past but have decided to start it at home this time as I feel I have the motivation this time.
