does anyone know how many syns in boots kimchi and edamame salad with brown rice? Thanks.

Ooh that's useful to know, thanks. :) Sent from my iPad using MiniMins.com

Hi, sorry I don't post very often, I have tried searching previous posts but I can't find what I need. Bear with me. I have restarted following SW after being very successful in the past but circumstances and life took over and I gained back a lot of the weight. When I followed it before I...

Good luck to you as well. It is frustrating that we have let this happen isn't it. But life happens and at least we are recognising it and dealing with it. Day 2 and I am doing ok so far and I have stocked up on SW food :)

I had spaghetti with tuna, blue cheese dressing (sainsburys be good to yourself, 0.5syns per tablespoon), lettuce, tomato, cucumber and 3.5syns worth of Parmesan. Really yummy and filling.

Yes it is the skinny cappuccino one. I haven't had it yet, saving it for my sweet craving after dinner. I have had 7 syns so far today but neither of my healthy extras. Will put cocoa powder on my shopping list!! Thanks x

Thank you, good idea about the yoghurt. My lovely husband bought me a cappuccino and chocolate muller light (limited edition, I didn't know they existed!) as a treat for my first day back on plan, I just found it in the fridge and text him to ask if it is for me! I will enjoy that later...

Two years ago I joined slimming world. I loved it, found it easy to follow and stick to, the weight fell off! I got to target in 3 months (I lost 1.5 stone) and felt great about myself. Then it started creeping up again. A little at first, and i would work hard to get it back down again, but...

Thanks for this thread really useful!

Chicken and lentil curry, free on EE, with rice, free on EE, and vegetable pakoras, SW recipe free on EE! yummers, all free free free! And some diet lemonade in a wine glass :D

tonight i will be having a prawn korma using muller greek style coconut yohurt (0.5 syn) with rice and vegetable pakoras, with a side salad :)

i always have mu shots in the cupboard. I would never include them in my meal planning but they are usefu; for that moment when i need to grab something crappy to eat and don't want to o to any effort, i just wanna EAT. they are better than a packet of crisps or a pot noodle which would have...

today i am having SW chip-style potatoes (cut them into v thick crisp shapes) with BBQ frylight (divine!!) with red pepper cottage cheese, beetroot and salas leaves. Potatoes are just in the oven and i CANOOT WAIT!!!

wow you look incredible, well done xx

wow you've done so well can see a big difference! well done!!

Since starting SW I have lost 18lb, not sure what I would have weighed in that first photograph though. I have more i want to lose, which is why i was really surprised by the photos! :)

I hope it's Ok to share. I discovered these two photos today and I am honestly shocked at the difference, I didn't think i looked very different having lost weight despite everyone telling me I do. I wore a dress on Saturday I haven't worn for a while and hubby took a photo. I was just putting...

oh yes, me too! I haven't even lost that much weight (although am very pleased and proud of what I have lost!) and a few people have said "you've lost a lot of weight" which is nice, but then labour the point with "LOADS AND LOADS! How did you do it? You've lost SO MUCH WEIGHT!!!" and i'm like...

Mine wasn't a big life changing event. One day I went to a friends house for the first time and she had a huge full length mirror free standing against a wall. As I walked past it I saw this fat person walking past too. That fat person was me! I stood and looked in this enormous mirror and I...

yes, definitely! I joined at 10st6.5lb, wanting to get to 9st3 which was my pre-children weight! (I am 5ft) It took me 14 weeks to get to target. I am so happy I joined! I wish i had done it sooner. I am just about to reset my target to lose another 12lb and get to my wedding-day weight! And I...

Vegetable Dhansak and rice for lunch today! All free, and probably 2/3 superfree :) I need to fill up as I am off to a kids party this afternoon and don't want to be even a tiny bit hungry...

I had to ask my husband to hide our scales too. They were hideously inaccurate anyway, and I'd weigh every day and be miserable thinkin i'd not lost anything, stupid diet doesn't work etc, then lose 2 or 3 lb at weigh in!!

cider and lager are really high in syns - i had a bottle of Magners left in my fridge after having some people over recently and i thought i'd have it but looked up the syns first and it was 10.5 syns for the bottle!! A pint of lager is probably around 10 syns as well, so if you had 10 ciders...

Tesco Value choc ice, 5 syns. I have one most days after dinner. Just enough to give you an ice cream and chocolate fix without tipping you over syn limits! Tasty!

Large bowl of mango to start, then smoked salmon and scrambled eggs on brown toast :)

what about getting some yoghurts with a syn value, or having some cream with strawberries for pudding. I buy Tesco Value choc ices which are 5 syns each as i often find i get to the end of the day and haven't had any syns at all so I have a choc ice. Yum!

interesting thread. I know i have become complacent with the plan since reaching my first target, i used to weigh and measure everything that needed it, now i just assume i've stuck within my milk allowance, i'll squirt salad cream on my dinner and think, ah that's about 2 syns, i'll grab half...

I first tried slimming world years ago. I went along to a local group, and i hope this doesn't sound awful, but the consultant was huge. I don't have any problem with an overweight consultant per se, we all have our ups and downs with our journey and consultants are people too ;) but she really...

it's magic!! That is the only way i can possibly make sense of the amount I eat and still lose weight LOL

beef medallion steaks, SW chips and salad

I lost my book too. Same situation, it ALWAYS lives in the kitchen drwawer, 3 weeks ago I went to get it out just before i left for group and it was gone! It still hasn't turned up and I cannot fathom where it could possibly be :( I am not paying a tenner for another one so I am just doing...

Well, this week i scheduled cake. I guess you could say i used flexible syns for it (except i really don't like this concept and think it is a bit pointless!) but i also "saved" some syns over the week, even though i know you are not supposed to do this. I was meeting a friend for coffee...

could you point me in the direction of the recipe of the syn free roulade? it sounds good :)

I love cake. With swirly icing. cupcakes, or a big sponge cake with buttercream and jam. I really miss cake. I haven't eaten cake since I started SW about 4 months ago. I daren't! I could eat a whole big cake in one sitting. I once (pre SW) ate 2 of the Tesco rasberry swirly cupcakes one after...

I do have friends who think they are gbeing nice buy saying "aw but you're not fat, you don't ned to lose weight, have some cake!" etc. I find it really hard when they do. I have told people firmly in the past, please don't offer me anything, i will eat what I want, i am serious about my diet...

My consultant told me that free is free, eat as much as you like all day every day, BUT even with snacks you should have 1.3 superfree. So the chips and beans are fine but you could have had some salad or veg with it, or eat a banana first? I often have free food snacks, in fact i tend to eat...

I made chilli last night and have some left so I am thinking I might make some kind of lasagne with the leftovers. White sauce made with fat free yoghurt, eggs and mustard powder... then a little cheese on top (HExA)

ok this does make sense to me. Like, a syn is roughly 20cal yes? (if no free food allowance) so something coming in at 8 calories would probably calculate on the site as 0 syns. But, eat 10 of them and that's 4 syns! So you can't eat as much as you want without counting. But free food, you can...

That is incredible!!! You must be sooooo proud of yourself! Well done :)

yes it works! I eat loads! Pasta most days, often have bacon eggs and tomatoes for lunch, home made burger and SW chips for dinner, I love my food and I am never hungry and I have lost 17.5lb in 14 weeks. It works!!

i've def lost a dress size and a bit! I was buying size 14 in Dorothy Perkins and yesterday I bought some shorts that fit and are size 10! But then i tried some jeans on that were size 10 and too tight. I think it depends on body shape etc xx

i struggle with this too cos if i have too much caffeine in the evening then I can't sleep for hours! I like diet coke but don't want to drink too much of it, everything else has syns! I often end up drinking tap water! But i can't do this too muh, they don't like it in pubs if its all you drink lol

yeah i always get really nervous before weigh in!

thanks everyone. I didn't get to target last night, but i did maintain so that's fine and i still only have 1lb to go. Feeling a bit better about it this week, planning to up my superfree and drink loads of water. I can do it this week! I hope! x

This is probably going to sound really daft. I am 1lb off my target (although i think i'd like to try and lose another stone, but i set my target at the top end of my BMI as i had no clue that SW would work so well, i thought it would take me a lot longer!) this week has been the hardest week...

yeah i have no idea why it should be synned but that's the response my consultant got from SW. it should be 2.5 syns per 100g. I used about 70g when I made one so about 2 syns. Still v low syn but worth counting IMO (for me) as I am really close to taret and don't wanna muck it up!

well, i made this the other day and it was lovely. So i told my group I had made it, and as I said I made the base from SMASH there was an audible gasp from the group members. I felt like a naughty schoolgirl! My consultant says this isn't free? This sparked a huge debate among everyone and I...

definitely stay for group. And try and see your weightloss as a long term thing, rather than week by week. So even if you stay the same this week you've still lost 6lb over 4 weeks which is awesome. xxx

thanks for the replies. I lost 0.5lb! Am really shocked. But my consultant said that probably even when going off plan there are still some SW principles in there somewhere (not sure where they were in the fish and chips, but i did order a dhansak and plain rice in the curry house if that...

I'm scared! I don't want to go but i know i must!! Have been away so been off plan for nearly a full week, and not just off plan but on fish and chips and curry and burger king! EEEP! :eek: wish me luck, leaving in ten mins.... now to go and find my lightest item of clothing ;)

when i get to target i will have lost 17.5lb, so not loads but i don't think i will put it back on in one week! Besides I think what will happen is i'll order a big feast and then have a few chicken wings and a couple of slices of pizza and be stuffed!!

haha that's a great plan! (except it means I have to wait longer for my pizza...!)

even my consultant said pizza is just impossible to fit into the plan. I mean, unless I had just one slice. And that's not realistic so I would rather not have it at all while i am trying to lose weight!

that's brilliant and also quite inspirational cos i think we all have those times where we fall into the trap of thinking if we don't eat the healthy extras and syns we will lose more weight and it just goes to show that eating MORE is actually better! What a great diet to be on where eating...

I decided a little while back that when I get to target I'm going to reward myself with a massive pizza takeaway feast (chicken wings, jalapeno poppers, pepperoni pizza...). We used to get pizza take away a lot and since starting slimming world I haven't had pizza at all as it is so hard to fit...

another clothes weigher here! hope you find a class that works for you xx

jerk chicken, rice and veg. And a 7 syn cornetto afterwards :)

my fave saturday night dinner, burger and SW chips :)

that is awesome, well done! I remember how excited I was to go from Obese to Overweight a while back, can't weight to be NORMAL lol

thanks. I generally don't eat much sweet stuff now since startin SW and it is unusual for me. I thought i was doing well at reprogramme my stress responses but there is obviously still something deep rooted which says to me stress=eat sugar!!

thank you for quick replies! What a great forum :) kettle is boiling for Options x

was gonna make a curry with a curry kit I have which requires coconut milk, i think around 6 syns worth? I think I will try and make a syn free curry though :)

should i still have the nice dinner i was planning or try and have something syn free?

ohh its all going wrong today!! been a stressful day one way or another and i succumbed to sweeties! I haven't eaten much in the way of sweet stuff since i started SW but today I am majorly craving SUGAR. I just ate half a pack of Haribo and now I feel sick and disgusted with myself, but I still...

its not just saggy skin and flab, i feel so bloated all the time, like a proper preggy belly! i guess i am just hopin with more weight loss the belly will go?!

erm.. the "baby" is 18 months :o i have a proper big round belly, it's just not going away!!! I'd love to think one day I could wear a bikini again but it is looking unlikely!!

I am doin Slimming World and loving it, have lost 11.5lb in 7 weeks and only 6lb to target which means getting to my pre babies weight! I am so pleased with my weight loss and people are notiing, i have dropped a dress size already etc. But my tummy is still enormous! I do a lot of walking and...

oh no, sorry! I didn't mean to confuse you!! you're obviously understanding it pretty well if your stats are anythin to go by! :)

I love food. I do think it is bordering on obsession! I think about what i am having for my next meal all the time, and if I know my dinner isn't goin to be anythin 'exciting' then it can make me feel quite depressed. Knowing i am having a take away or something of an evening cheers me up and I...

hmm, thank you. This isn't quite how I have understood it! But you have to have superfree with each meal, yes? So is it better to have a dish which has superfree in, but also syns, or free food with no superfree? I thought the whole "eat as much as you like" was very dependant on having 1/3...

Quick question. Is free food only free if it is served with 1/3 superfree? Thinkin here about eating out really - if i go out for a curry I have the dhansak for 6.5 syns and plain boiled rice is free. But where's the superfree? I asked at group last night (not my usual consultant) if free food...

i eat my normal lunch but I WI on a monday which is my busiest day with the kids so i often don't have time for my normal afternoon snack, that said I do sometimes buy a afruit salad and some wafer thin chicken from Morissons... I have dinner after weigh in. my tummy rumbled through the whole of...

I am a bit scared of exercising :o I started trying body magic and uppin my exercise but not very consistently, and the weeks I have done exercise I have had either a gain, STS or .5lb loss, non exercise weeks are always much higher losses! I am suppsoed to be going to Zumba with a friend this...

if it makes you feel any better I reckon I had about 90 syns on Friday!!! :eek: and that's just an estimation... i don't think the scales will be my friend tomorrow lol

well done, it's a big thing when you can ignore those cravings and chose a healthier option instead, you can feel smug and skinny now ;-) couple of weeks ago i went out for a curry, had my one chosen curry and plain rice, said no to everything else even the complimentary Baileys at the end! and...

So for ages I have messed about with my eating, moaned about being fat but never done anythin about it. I have been about 2 stone overweight for at least a year and just been miserable - I gained the weight when pregnant and never really lost it, well maybe 1lb a month lol but before SW i would...

Turkey meatballs with spicy tomato sauce, rice and veg

do you have a slow cooker? I like to make a big sauepan of veggie soup and then put it in the slow cooker so it keeps warm all day, then when i am hungry i can just grab a cup of soup! Carrot and coriander is my fave, it's just onion, carrot, veg stock and dried coriander all boiled up then...

tonight i am having spicy chicken (my husband's made up recipe, as in, he makes it up as he goes along so I can't tell you what's gonna be in it! chicken and random spices...) with lettuce, tomato, cucumber and onion in a Co op Wholemeal pitta (HExB). And a 5syn tesco value choc ice for dessert...

i had a stinker of a hanover last weekend and i made a huge plate of really salty SW chips, and a bottle of fanta zero. really hit the spot!!!

I just love this recipe, had to come back on the thread and say how much i love this recipe lol I had these today made with plain cottage cheese, I made half the recipe and made them into tiny little balls so I got about 8! with a big salad and a bowl of melon. And a few days ago I made the...

oh no, sorry! Probably steer clear of chilli chicken then! Will try and think of some more ideas, but everything we eat has chilli in it here!!

i wonder if you could do a chilli chicken dish using fresh chillis? being allergic to spices does limit you somewhat, my standard is just meat + random spices +passatta... chicken, passatta, onions, red peppers, chilli peppers (jalapeno, scotch bonnet, birds eye, dependin on how hot you like...

Tonight we are having carribean jerk style chicken with rice and mixed veg. All free on Extra Easy :)

I am going out on Friday with my sister for dinner and I can't decide what to do. 2 weekends ago I had a night out and I was super good, went for a curry and had chicken dhansak with boiled rice, and drank diet coke all night (even goin on to a cocktail party after). That week i lost 3lb. Then...

that's a really good point - if i could eat KFC and pizza every night and be thin, that's what I would be eating, I'd be super duper unhealthy! SW is great cos it is such a healthy way of eating, so much fruit and veg, even on a week where i don't lose much (or at all) i know I have eaten lots...

I know how you feel. It is hard! I gained a lot of weight in prenancy and never lost it, I have 3 children and each time i just got bigger and bigger. I know several people who have babies and then just went ping! back to pre pre size without really trying! In fact it seems to be the norm to...

So my husband wants to try and lose weight too (think he is jealous of my fabulous weight loss ha ha) and I suggested he do slimming world with me, as that makes the most sense! BUT... i think we will struggle to get the superfree into him so I wonder how it's gonna work! He doesn't like any...

roast chicken dinner for me tonight. Chicken (no skin), roast potatoes done in frylight, peas, carrots and brocolli, and just a little bit of chicken gravy (will count syns) yum!

I was wheat free for quite some time as I thought it was making me ill, although having been doing SW I am back on the wheat and seem to be OK so far. I ate a lot of risotto! Which is brilliant cos you can basically put in whatever you have and is great for loading up on superfree. Also rice...

that's how i understood it and what i have been doing and it is working so far :)

my consultant said that the 1/3 superfree should be with all meals, and snacks you should try and reach for superfree first but if you are having free food snacks try and make it 1/3 superfree. if you are havin something with a syn value then you can have it without the third and count the syns...

ooh that sounds like a good option :)

its funny how people react when you say you are trying to lose weight. I went out at the weekend and was only drinkin diet coke to stay within syns. Someone i'd only jst met was buying a round and was trying to get me to drink spirits and I said no, when she asked why i said i was trying to lose...

the sweet chilli noodles are nice and only 1 syn. But they aren't very excitin - i hate eating out and havin something i could have made myself at home! I find eating pasta dishes etc a bit depressing in a restaurant! But the noodles taste nice and at only 1 syn you can't go wrong really. !

Tesco Value Chunky Tikka Chicken, free on EE and Red, is proper tasty and filling with a salad or some rice. Really quick and easy and not too expensive, i like to have some in the fridge so I can make a quick snack with it with some cucumber or somethin, when my kids are eating their dinner so...

been so good all week, went out for a curry and stuck to a chicken dhansak and plain rice, didn't eat all of it, diet coke instead of wine etc... went out last night and stuck to 2 vodka and diet cokes and said no to several free jaegerbombs... then went round to the inlaws for sunday roast...

good idea, maybe i'll drink vodka and diet coke but leave the vodka out of every other one, might trick my mind into thinking i am drinking more than i actually am LOL or I just go in stone cold sober and try and get "drunk on the atmosphere" (i hear people can do that!)... but then there's no...

Can I survive at evening at a karaoke bar with only 15 syns to spend on alcohol??? :eek:

In my 2nd week at SW i gained 1lb! I was gutted and all ready to jack it in but my husband said I should do at least 6 weeks and look over the long term whether i am losing weight or not, week by week isn't necessarily entirely accurate as there are other factors involved especially if it was...

or do you find yourself wanting to shout to the world about SW?! I really wish i had joined years ago, I feel like i have finally found a diet that suits me and I can stick to (the majority of the time) and that works. I am still only 4 weeks in but I am loving it so much, i feel positively...

Oh wow. I just made some of these for brunch and they are amazing. I cut them in half and put marmite on straight from the oven so it kinda melted and soaked into the scones and they were gorgeous. I can't believe they are syn free! I had them with some fruit (I do Extra Easy so needed my 1.3...

SW burger and chips is lovely. Burger made with Extra lean mince, can use a bun as your healthy extra B if you want, lovely SW chips and then salad or veg on the side. I love this meal, feels like a real saturday night treat but is syn-free!

Congratulations on your babY! and good luck with group tonight, i think it is the best way to do it IMO. I have done diets on and off myself at home for years and never really stuck to anything. 4 weeks at slimming world and I am already 7lb lighter, i just love it. I love my group too, i hope...

DH and I have got a lunchtime to ourselves tomorrow (this is very rare!) and he is fancying a fry up... I do not wish to deny him such! But i need to be totally syn free tomorrow daytime as I am out for a curry in the evening!! So... baked beans, grilled bacon with the fat trimmed, frylight...

I stir quark into cous cous :)

I have lots of reasons to be doing this, but my motivation at the moment: my sis is moving to Australia (:cry:) and before she goes we are having a big family photo shoot to get photos of us all together, her and her partner with my kids, etc, and I want them to be photos we keep forever...

yep that's the one! Will let you know how it is!

pre slimming world: Breakfast: Frosties or rice crispies with whole milk Lunch: sandwich (white bread) with butter and marmite, or cheese and pickle. Crisps, maybe chocolate bar. Dinner: if cooking, curry, chilli, lasagne, shepherds pie etc. Not very different but I would use oil, coconut...

I'm fairly new to this but like others have said, i tend to stick to 5-10 syns per day then i have some to fall back on if i slip up somewhere. I am also really finding it hard to let myself use syns throughout the day as i feel a bit panicy if i use a lot in case i need them later. But this is...

I'm gonna make SW fish n chips tonight (from the mag), not sure on my superfree yet, popping to the shops in a bit see what I fancy :)

Adobong Manok Recipe (Filipino chicken in vinegar sauce) | Philippines | Whats4Eats i think hubby adapted the above recipe

I was having a chat with a slimming world buddy the other day, and we both said we reckon we will probably just eat the SW way forever. I find it a really sustainable lifestyle and although obviously there will be times when i go off-plan, and there will be gains and losses in my future, I don't...

on the other hand there is also the little syn devil who sits on my shoulder and says "sod it, everyone else is having chocolate..." :rolleyes:

mine does but unintentionally, he just doesn't think sometimes. Like he'll go to buy milk and come home with freshly baked bread which makes me cry cos i can't have it and i want to eat the whole loaf. Or he'll buy crisps in the pub and open them out on the table in front of me. He is very...

well the adobong manok was lovely. i highly recommend. it was in quite a watery marinade then put in a saucepan and cooked in the sauce on medium heat til chicken tender. Then chicken taken out and fried in a frrying pan, this should have been in LOTS of oil to make chicken crispy but hubby used...

i like my consultant but i have only ever been to her class so i have no basis for comparison. she's very sweet and knows her stuff, she has set up a facebook group and she posts random motivational things on there most days, and comments on peoples posts etc, she is really cheery and will o out...

I went on Friday and I took 2 Hifi light bars and a can of diet Lilt :)

My hubby is cooking this evening - he volunteered and said he had found an interesting looking recipe online, AND he said he could make it SW friendly for me!! :eek: So we are having Adobong Manok - a filipino dish apparently, it is chicken and onion marinaded in soy sauce, vinegar, garlic...

reading this thread i am mortified i had no idea i was supposed to put stuff in the basket, my consultant never told me! I have seen people arriving with fruit etc and I just assumed they had brought a snack to have during the group, i never noticed them put it in the basket :o will def take...

this was so yum, i had it with some chilli and mango dressing (1 syn per tablespoon) and a big salad as I had already used up my HExB but it was lovely. I used turkey, i think it would be nicer with beef, and i def want to try with lamb but need to find out syn values first as can't get extra...

I would think so, although i'm not sure how well they would stay together? oven baking them makes them really crunchy on the outside which i really like but i don't see why you couldn't pan fry with frylight, maybe make them a bit flatter and more like thick pancakes? i love these, i have made...

SYN free on Extra Easy x

I would definitely say it counts as it is on the superfree list so as long as you are having 1/3 superfree does it matter which ones you choose? I always count passata or chopped toms as part of my superfree, although i usually add other stuff too to make it more interesting, but i don't see why...

Got this in the oven as I type! Am using lean turkey mince as that is what i had in the fridge so I will see how it is. I'm kinda excited lol

Thanks so much everyone, i will try and stay away from my scales at home and only weigh at group. if nothing else SW is a really healthy way to eat, i have actually given up drinking alcohol this week too and it hasn't been as hard as i thought so i may just go teetotal. I'm getting my 5-a-day...

I used to make a lovely jerk style chicken dish pre SW but the main ingredients in the marinade were olive oil and brown sugar so very un-SW-friendly and highly SYNfull! But i attempted a SW friendly version yesterday and DH said it was almost as good as the other recipe (praise indeed! lol)...

yes i am keeping a food diary, been 100% this week, not gone over on syns at all, eaten all my healthy extras and loads of superfree, the only thing i can think is that i had a curry with rice one night (cooked myself with quorn) and maybe it wasn't 1/3 superfree i did feel stuffed and bloated...

Do you always lose weight? I ask because I have stuck to the plan 100% this week, and even started my body magic so done exercise twice this week (need to do one more lot today), but according to my scales I have gained weight?! I know i shouldn't weigh myself at home and i should only do it...

coconut mullerlight in curry is GENIUS!!!! :)

Hurray! Curry tomorrow night it is! Or maybe chinese... I generally try and stick to 5 syns a day anyway as this seems to be all i need at the moment, and that leaves me with 10 syns if i suddenly need a creme egg at midnight :D so i am hoping it will all balance out. I had a great loss on my...

I lost 4.5lb in my first week and then GAINED 1lb in my second!! My third weigh in is MOnday so i am intruigued to see what happens!!!

DH and I always have a take away on a Friday or Saturday night. We've done this weekly for as long as I can remember - sometimes a big one (curry with all the trimmings!), sometimes just a big bag of chips from round the corner, depending on how our funds are looking lol But since starting...

If ive done it right the first one comes up as 1½ Syn per package/portion on Extra Easy 1½ Syn per package/portion on Green 6½ Syns per package/portion on Original and the second one 2 Syns per package/portion on Extra Easy 2 Syns per package/portion on Green 7 Syns per package/portion...

**I am new to SW and doing Extra Easy - I don't know about the red/green days so I can only post what I know! where i say syn-free that means on EE** I made some really yummy vegetable pakoras at the weekend to go with a curry and make it feel like a friday night takeaway :) they were really...

We're having hot hot hot chilli con carne with rice and salad :) I'll put enough chillis in to induce crying in a grown man

Hi, I have recently joined slimming world (am on day 3!) and a friend directed me to this site to help :) I have 3 kids and am thinking it is finally time to shift the "baby" weight (my eldest is 7!!) and I have 18lb to get back to pre-kids size! I'd like to lose another stone after that too, I...
