Hi all, after losing 6 and a half pounds veeeery slowly (6 weeks) I've been away with work for a week and have lived off hotel food I.e 3 course meals, wine etc. Whereas I said no to dessert and ate lots of fruit and healthy options I feel totally demotivated having got back and put on 3lb. Any...

It makes me laugh, like they got sick of naming all the different digestive problems so just call them all the same thing lol x

I'm so glad this thread has started. I have also been told I have IBS. I think this is a label doctors give to a whole host of digestive issues and it makes me very miserable. Fruit is a big one for me but the other day went to a noodle bar and was in pain after my starter of vegetables...

1/2 off for me, gutted! I've been sticking to it 100% this week and my tummy looks flatter too (I think) :(

Leaving for WI in half an hour. Been good all week, but naughty today. What was I thinking??

Baked trout with mushy peas, sweet potato and carrot crush, roast potatoes and green veg x

Thai style chicken cakes from the last SW mag

Half a fresh pineapple - dee-lish but think I now have heartburn :-s

You could make syn free pancakes? They feel naughty but they're not. Or, something I couldn't get my head round at first, you could have a jacket potato and beans - just for a snack!

Yep, totally normal! That's what I love about SW, you eat loads but still lose weight (most of the time). Good luck xxx

Mmmmm me LOVES sweet potato wedges x

Just had some raisin wheats (hexb) while I wait for my curry cooked by OH. Smells dee-lish but it's taking AGES!!!!!

Don't beat yourself up, you're allowed an off-week. I'm sitting here with a glass of wine after a stressful day at work - I swore I wouldn't drink tonight as have a night out tomorrow. Just think about the end result and how fab you'll feel when you hit your target. And if you don't lose every...

Fishfingers with tomato pasta :)

Hiya - I think it's because when fruit is taken out of it's natural state you're left with essentially, sugar! And as well as that you can eat a lot more if it when it's blended, probably more than you'd naturally eat in a day. Hope that helps x

1.5lb off for me! Didn't quite get my shiny but something to aim for next week x

Triple whammy!!! Well done you, hope I het my first shiny tonight xx

Hiya - that sounds just like me, loads of increased exercise and stated on track (no booze even) and last week put on 1lb, will see what the scales say at WI tonight. So, does having a lot of fish speed things up? I have trouble eating a lot of the super speed foods as my stomach doesn't agree...

Mine took around 3 hours but you do need to stir it regularly otherwise it'll just freeze, and then just eat once you're happy with the consistency. I can't stop eating the stuff! Xx

It is indeed - on EE (I've never done red or green so not sure about them). Only thing I'd say is if you don't finish it in one sitting, get it out of the freezer half an hour before you want to eat it next time as it'll be frozen if left without stirring :)

Hiya - it's a raspberry one my OH made for me, here's the recipe: Put a pot of fat free yogurt (I used cranberry and raspberry mullerlight) along with 250g fat free natural yogurt in a Tupperware dish. Stir in 300g chopped fruit (strawberries or raspberries),2 tablespoons granulated canderel...

Just having some syn-free frozen yogurt - skerrrrrrummy!!

Ah thanks v much - 3 weeks in, 4.5lb down. Hoping for 2.5lb tomorrow to get my shiny sticker x

Please can I be a newbie to Team Thursday? :-D

Ooh just in time, thanks v much x

Should I or shouldn't I? I thought as they're quite soft anyway maybe I'd put them straight in the oven? Any help would be appreciated - they're already cut and the ovens on! :)

Fantastic news! I've only just read this thread but also had a tear in my eye when I read it. Relief is an amazing feeling and should always be accompanied by chocolate x

I was ALWAYS hungry with ww. I do think sw has a slower weight loss generally but it's more of a lifestyle change so for me, I know I'll stay on it longer term. Whereas ww, can you imagine counting points forever? I put the weight I lost at ww back on for that very reason - I don't like...

I love a lil cheeky tunnocks teacake every now and then 5.5 syns :)

Thank you thank you thank you x

Thanks circes -I was actually diagnosed with intolerances a few years ago and put on buscopan and fybergel which did work. Then the intolerances went away so doc said it was likely stress related. However I'm not stressed now so just wanted to see if anyone had any suggestions that wouldn't...

Hi all - just wondering if anyone has any intolerances and what you do to relieve them. I've always been intolerant to certain things and will get stomach cramps/bloatedness every now and then but this has turned into a daily ritual since starting SW. From what I can gather it's fruit, berries...

Curry, rice and chips SW stylee :-D

Coriander and chilli noodles with chicken and king prawns :)

Don't do it!! I found the recipe on here and they're delish! Enjoy x http://www.minimins.com/slimming-world-recipes/72066-mmmm-yummy-syn-free-pancakes.html

Put a tub of fat free yogurt (muller light or activa snackpot) and 250g of fat free natural yogurt in a Tupperware dish (one that has a lid). Stir in around 300g chopped fruit like strawberries and raspberries (remember not to blend as they'll have syns) and 2 tablespoons granulated canderel...

Eggy bread with fried mushrooms and tomatoes - wish it was brekkie time now :)

Hi there, i'm very new to this app and every time I try to go to my profile, it says access denied. Anyone else had this prob or can anyone suggest anything? Thanks, A x

I hate looking at photos of myself, but stick one on the fridge and one on the inside of the cupboard door - makes me stop reaching for the extra syns! X

Oooh bovril!! Thanks x

Can anyone recommend tasty hot drinks that are syn free please? I love my cups of teas and skinny lattes, but if I have just one latte, it means the milk in my cuppa needs to be used as syns. And I'd rather use them on something else... :)

Fab thanks! Quite new to this so should have really looked there first :)

Does anyone know the syn value of a Thai green curry from a restaurant? Had one last night but can't find a lot of info on Thai food. Thanks, Amy x
