I literally cannot comprehend how such a small portion of food has so many calories! Insane!

According to the syn calculator and the nutritional info from the spoons website, they are indeed free on red and extra easy! Woohoo!!!

Oh my god... Just ran the nutritional info through the syn calculator as these are my favourite... 48 syns!!! Aaaaaaaahh!

Wow! You have a gorgeous figure and that dress is fab on you :D Big inspiration for me here as our starting weight is similar! Congrats and good luck!

Galaxy Bubbles is another good one! 8.5 syns and the same size as a 'real' bar of galaxy :D

The honey is synned :) Have tried this recipe with beef, really tasty!

Thanks for this!!! Keeping it in mind for my next tgis visit:) x

And so you should be proud! :D

Haha yeah, best thing to do with dominos is ignore the syn values and be really good the next few days! So tasty!

TGI's is probably the most difficult place to find anything healthy - I would just enjoy whatever you want, and then lower your syns for the rest of the week :)

If you're doing extra easy, you may aswell have the meat anyway! But if you're doing green, quorn options are great. The syns depends on the kind of curry you have - some are quite high due to the use of cream, coconut milk etc. All of the average syns for takeaway curries are in the back of the...

Hmm that's strange. I think from the options it gives you, I used the one for 'forums' - give it another try hehe! x

Blimey! Congrats!!! :D After months of being a member, I've never got SOTW - every time I had a big loss, someone would just pip me to it! Gutted haha

I know the feeling, when I first got on the SW scales, I was 16.8 - my consultant saw how it made me feel and said "Don't worry, because you'll never weigh that again.", and that's something I've always remembered. Good luck!!! x

For some people, it can take a little longer for the difference to show on the scales! Your hard work this week will most likely result in a nice loss next week, so keep it up :D

I've just realised that I haven't actually lost any weight in the last 2 months because I've been going up and down every other week :( Starting to feel quite down now as I feel I'm wasting my time and money! Has anyone else been through this? How did you get out of the rut?

WOW! you look fantastic!!! massive well done to you! *claps* :D (I think the reason I couldn't see the pics before was because I had under 50 posts!)

You are right shenzi, just been to WI and only put on a lb, better than 5 haha! So that's probably the 9lb evening out a bit :) Gonna try and stay off the scales this week, it's so difficult tho!

Looks like it was a fluke, just weighed myself (I know I shouldnt) and I'm up 5.5lb :( Thought I'd been really good aswell. Had a staff meal/night out Friday night so allowed 70 syns for the food (BBQ chicken salad) and drinks and have had very few syns since. Made a lovely superfree soup that...

Haha yeah, if level 1 is tough, what's level 3 like?! :eek:

I've just finished day 2 aswell :D what level is everyone doing? I got it from iTunes where you can buy the 3 levels separately so i've only got level one at the mo :) Gonna push even harder tomorrow - want my 2 1/2 stone award this week!!!

Chinese tonight - chicken in black bean sauce with some boiled rice, yum!

Just finished my first session, ouch... bicycle crunches killed me!!! But I think I'm going to enjoy it - might change my mind on that when the ache sets in tomorrow though haha!

Asda Mexican chicken is only 1.5 syns for the whole tin :) its a bit like a spicy curry, really nice with rice or on a jacket spud!

Haha yes I'm scared too! Haven't even looked at it yet, going to start tomorrow :) Will let you know, providing I'm still alive!!! X

Thankyou!!! :D x

30 day shred... wish me luck..! :eek:

Haha yeah its driving me crazy, can't even look at my own profile! Only a few more to go though... :D

Hehe afraid not! Im flattered tho, thankyou XD

I think you should all start up a Lucozade Anonymous group - and my boyfriend can join you too! He drinks shedloads of the stuff D:

I always feel the same! I weigh on a Thursday evening aswell, should really stop weighing myself Thursday morning so I can't compare haha!

I LOVE homemade burgers! Even before I started SW, we always had homemade ones on the BBQ, yum! Have never tried putting soy sauce in though, might try that next time!

I do that with the greek yoghurt a lot, much creamier than natural yoghurt, and you get a nice chocolate hit! Works well with orange options too, for 2 syns you can't go wrong :)

that sounds tasty, might try it! :D

Thankyou! Hope I continue it with a loss next week now, a pound will do! Just don't want it to have been a total fluke :(

Hehe thankyou all! It's lovely to hear these things, very motivating!!! Xx

Amazing! Can't wait to wear tiny topshop jeans again xD

Wow! Bet it felt incredible to get in those jeans and be half the size of them!!! :D

Haha yes I do :) thankyou NiaX! x

We make Szechuan chicken, so easy to make and delicious! Chicken marinated in plenty of soy sauce for as long as you have time for, then stir fried with grated/julienned carrot, spring onions, chilli and any other veg you fancy really :) then pile it on top of noodles! mmmmm!

I don't think you could use your HEX as the portion is a lot bigger than the portion you can have! According to syns online, all six inch subway rolls are 9 syns, except Italian herbs and cheese which I believe is 11 :)

Share you recipe Roziee! Hehe

It looks as though the only thing you'd have to syn would be the flour :) I fancy some chicken now haha!

You look so different! Well done!!!

It's so sad that people can be so irresponsible with words, not considering how a throwaway comment can affect a person :( I can only echo what others have said - DO NOT forget what you have already achieved and what you WILL go on to achieve, and don't let some stupid worthless idiot make you...

thanks all :D i'm sure you'll do it chloecat, stay motivated!!! :D x

Ahh that's a good idea, thanks! :D

thankyou all! :gen126:

<3 bodycombat! :D

Congrats on your amazing loss! Are the pics showing up for everyone else? I can't see them :( Would really like to as we are the same height, have a similar starting weight and I'd like to get down to around 10 stone aswell! :)

Roughly how many syns would you estimate for this? Just so that I can have a rough idea of how many syns to allow when eating out in case oil is used :) thankyou x

Hello! I'm joining this group, but hopefully not for very long as I only have 2lb to go :D hehe:D:D

That's a fab idea - they should roll it out nationwide!!! :D

Thankyou all :D I agree Happyem, its much too easy to let a gain dishearten you into carrying on with the bad eating habits, but then you feel even more accomplished when you get back into it! Good luck getting it back off silly sausage, i'm sure you will do it this week!!! :D

Shame about these, they are delicious! Before SW, I used to think of them as a healthier option as well, ate loads! :(

Congratulations on getting your 4 stone award!!! Have been reading through your diary for a little while, really pleased for you hitting that milestone! FAB!!! xx

No, not at all! I wish It was, I'd be at target in no time haha! I think it was a combination of things, I'd put on 7lb over the previous 4 weeks, from losing motivation and going completely off plan. When I had a 4lb gain last week, it hit home and I went away determined to sort it out. Stayed...

Can't believe it! So pleased, I felt I needed to share it! hehe :D only 1/2 lb till my 2 1/2 stone award! :D

thankyou! :D

thanks so much both! hoping to get my 2 1/2 stone award this week, very excited/nervous! hehe :D

I have a staff meal at TGI's this weekend and I'm trying to decide on something beforehand so that I don't get there, cave in and choose a full rack of ribs with chips haha! Low fat options are pretty much non-existent :( I'm considering the BBQ Chicken Salad - "Sweet, smoky barbecue glazed...

Sounds like you made a good choice! I can't say I would have done the same - their cookie dough desert is my weakness! I have to stay away from pizza hut altogether haha

sweet & sour one is yummy! i'm rather partial to the thai flavour too - worth 1/2 syn!

this sounds delicious - great idea!

Hello! Have decided to share some pictures to spur myself on as I've been stuck in a rut the past few weeks! The first is me and my dad in October last year. I'm not sure of my exact weight at that time, but when I started Slimming World in December I was 16 stone 8. The second and third are...

just out of curiosity, why is this? :s

All of the other full-fat flavours are between 12 and 14 syns, so I would imagine it to be very similar! I spent my syns on strawberry cheesecake B&J's today - mmmmm!

Hello! I've not posted here before, but am very excited about losing 2lb and getting my club 10 award tonight! Total 1st 10lb loss now :D

It makes me chuckle to think of people sneaking food into the cinema! I work in one and we've never once stopped anyone taking their own snacks in - in fact, I tend to encourage it: "You've still got half an hour til your film, pop over to asda!" hehe :) I tend to just not bother taking any...

Hi everyone :) Just for reference, Ben & Jerry's scoop weights are as follows: 1 scoop - 85g 2 scoop - 170g 3 scoop - 255g This is including the weight of the cup, so the ice cream weight is obviously slightly under :) and this also depends on whether the person scooping is following the...
