14 days to Christmas... ah!

Today. A sachet of porridge & milk BBA Salad with dressing and a little chicken & a Brezel. 6 Syns Pasta with sauce, broccoli & bit of chicken 4 Syns Picking (I have my sister staying with me... it's difficult) 8 Syns Yep... 18 Syns. Better than a poke in the eye. N'est pas?

Ah... 25 days to Christmas. 24 days of Advent. Mama Mia. Still trying.

I am still here. I have a relative visiting me at the moment so it's been difficult coming to Minimins everyday. Still trying. Glad you guys are still here.

Yesterday and today... my first two days of SW for a long time. Feeling good. Done good. Feeling a little hopeful. Managed to not eat a ton of food after feeling very lousy about something.

Thanks. I can't buy Options over here but these WW ones. They are not as good... so i certainly hope they are less than 2 Syns. Thanks a lot

Absolutely SOLO. I would love it if we could stick this out together. I need a SW friend. OK Frylight it is and Options. I WILL weigh myself tomorrow. I am a coward! :)

OK so far. For me, it gets difficult this time in the afternoon. Feeling really wiped this afternoon. Here in Switzerland, we don't get such brilliant choices of free or low Syn foods. Does anyone know Syn value of Weight Watchers chocolate drink (small sachetss)? My sister is coming...

OK. I don't know whether there are any challenges (7, 14 or 21 day challenges) on Minimins but I am going to give myself a 7 day challenge of keeping to the SW diet... to prove to myself that it will work again for me. Weigh in tomorrow morning. I don't mind if anyone else wants to join or...

Oh pants... was not perfect.. hopefully it will break even. Big sigh... However... tomorrow I shall go for a run... haven't been for over 3 weeks.

Yeah!! Well done tinnedtomato.

Had semi-skimmed milk 250 ml (HEX) with a 25g potion of Herbalife. I'm guessing 3 Syns. Bachelors Mexican Rice. 2.5 Syns (I'm guessing... I can't remember at the mo.) OK.. a little chocolate 2 Syns I'm making mincemeat... so I had to try some... 2 Syns And that's it for now. It's...

Hi. I use frozen berries that I put into the milk/herbalife combo. I've been taking that as a free food. Good idea to use syn free yoghurt. On the label it states that a 25g portion (which is 2 scoops) has 89 calories, 2.2grams of fat. So that's 4.5 Syns? Wow that's a lot.

I like to have a Herbalife for breakfast (formula 1) in the morning for breakfast, crammed full of frozen berries. Lovely. I usually make it with semiskimmed milk. (250 ml). My question is, does any not how many Syns are there in the 2 scoops used in the shake? Thanks

I've been OK in the last couple of days. Not perfect in the Xyngular sense but not bad in the SW sense. I have a couple more days of the programme to do. Weigh in should be Friday. Gulp.

Better and better. Thanks Shrinki

No.. I am British too, however majority of my English-speaking friends are American and.. as it happends... I was introduced to Rootbeer as a child in the UK by some Americans. The Coop "British" section is actually quite funny. I guess if I hang around there long enough, I am going to...

You are inspiration! Many congratulations. I hope it's still going well.

We love our Mexican food. This is definitely worth a good. Thanks.

How has your week been? It's getting foggy and autumnal in Switzerland. I love the smell of roasting chestnuts in the Bahnhofstrasse but I don't to eat them. Some of you are American? FYI the larger Coops sell A&W Rootbeer for 1.50 francs. I buy it for the kids for icecream floats...

It's Saturday morning.. still hanging on with the Xyngular... not perfectly.. but pretty good. (I keep thinking about how much it cost for the Ignite Kit and knuckle down. I am a runner (NOT a fast runner) and for the last three weeks I've not run.. I was concerned about the lack of calories...

It's Monday. Starting off my 2nd and final round of Xyngular Ignite before embarking on my Slimming World.:sigh: This will last eight days.

Managed! Thanks.

I have a question. How do you find... easily... your food diary? When I search for my name, I get no where. Is there a quick way to find your own food diary thread so you can continue using it rather then starting a new one every day. It's kinda frustrating. Thanks.

Sunday..... Didn't have any breakfast. 0 Lunch was pork, potatoes mashed, vegs, a little gravy, stuffing made from break, bacon, onion & herbs B 6 Yoghurt with forest fruits...

Depends what you mean by good. The Zeughauskellar is very atmospheric... used to be the old arsenal for the Stadt. Very high ceiling, busy, a million sausages. I'm sure there is somewhere in the menu a salad. That is opposite the Paradeplatz... Im sure your husband knows Paradeplatz and...

Thanks OldSock. I've just checked it out and there are some Swiss Misses.

Hi Ladies I live in Switzerland too. I didn't realise that WW Yogarts are free. Thanks for that info for starts. And I can buy Alpen bars from the Britshop... great. How many Syns are in them? Müller Light yogarts Toffee Flavour I miss you too! BTW I live in Zürich.

Hi Princess_Stevie Have you set up a thread on the SW Food Dairy and keep replying to it as the days go on... or do you set up a new thread every time you put in your day's food intake. Thanks for your support.

Vicar of Dibley Christmas Lunch. My Mother In Law is terrific... and as far as I know she is not on a diet. She has raised 6 children and during that time as learnt to cook and serve a variety of vegs to satisfy all the children's likes. So I don't worry at all at Christmas dinner and I...

End of Week One. Nervous to weigh myself. Well... I made it to the Ball at Sargans castle yesterday evening.. though I forgot to weigh myself yesterday morning. And of course I forgot this morning. It was fun... I didn't dance (the Swiss dance in couples to all sorts of music... it's nice...

Thanks Tinnedtomato (great name BTW). My will power has been horrible in the last year... I'm going to the Ball because I have a few friends going too. My husband can not dance to save his life and the Swiss do dance in pairs. I'm going to be sitting around for the evening trying not to eat...

I have a confession. I love Slimming World but in an act of desperation, I bought a 30 day Xyngular Ignite Kit (although in reality the hard bit is the first 17 days, should be able to return to SW after that but with just a few supplements). I've never done something crazy like this until...

Thanks so much. I'm sure to stumble around the website for a while. I've just written something in the Newbie forum introducing myself. So I guess I'll keep looking around and trying things out. Thanks so much again. PS My husband used to play football for Romsey Reserves :D and I loved...

I've already posted something on a Slimming World. Opps. I need a weekly meeting really but the only one around here is WW and it's a Swiss version so double reason for not liking it. However.. I've lost weight before easily when following the Slimming World plan... but need the support...

Thanks already. Do I just continue to post here and look at other threads and respond? And do I post weight lost etc on particular forums? What do you guys do? CarolineJ I've just noticed that you live in Southampton. We were living in North Baddesley before moving over here. :)

Hi I haven't had time to read how everything works here. My name is Jen and I live in Switzerland and I've really loved SW in the past whilst in the UK when I've been able to go to meetings. Since living abroad I've put weight on and now I have got a Swiss mountain to climb to get rid of...
