Hi there, well done on your weight loss so far. Please could I ask which Hi-Fi bars you have? I haven't seen any that are vegan before. Would be interested to know as they would be quite handy to have in the cupboard! Thank you!

I don't know if it's the same thing, but the Quorn Tikka Pieces which come chilled in a 175g pack are FREE on all plans.

It is 3 Syns for the whole pack on EE and Original. 11 Syns for the whole pack on Green.

The only ones I found were Quorn Hot & Spicy Big Bites which come chilled. They are 2 Syns each. I am not sure if they are the ones you have? Probably best to use the Syns Calculator for your one.

Sainsbury's Spicy Tomato Pasta 400g tin - FREE on EE/ Green. Sainsbury's Vegetarian Ravioli 400g tin - 2 Syns on EE/ Green. Sainsbury's Vegetarian Spag Bol 400g tin - 3.5 Syns on EE/ Green. All are nice (for tinned food that is!)

Sainsbury's one is 8 syns eek!

Yes, Quinoa is FREE on EE and Green. It's 4.5 Syns for 25g dry/ 7 Syns per 100g cooked on Original.

Hi, if these are the Chosen by You 70% Less Fat ones, then they are both FREE on all plans. The Black Pepper and the Natural ones in this range are free too :)

A standard serving of chip shop chips has a Syn value of 17.5 (that's for a 227g serving). So if you assume the cone was no bigger than a standard portion, I would Syn 1/3rd of it as 6 Syns maybe.

Hi, they are 2.5 Syns for a 200g tin.....bit late but hope this helps!

Split the difference 'cos they are 3 Syns per 100g baked on EE and Green (7 on Original Days). HTH!

Hi, I can't find that one either, but their other curry pastes are 1 Syn per level tbsp. (apart from the Madras which is 1.5 and the Korma which is 2 Syns). HTH!

Hi, their Chosen By You Meat Free Burgers (come frozen in packs of 8) are 1/2 a Syn each. Not sure if these are the same thing?

I have been to 3 different Sainsbury's including one of the mega store ones and not managed to get these :( I think I am going to email Quorn about it.

No problem...happy to help :)

Not sure then, I looked it up on Syns Online and it said 0.5 syns for 6 sprays...maybe they have changed the product? It's hard to see where the Syns come from if all the values are zero!

No probs - happy to help :) The Risotto is 6.5 Syns but the Chilli is not listed I'm afraid.

Hello, if this is the Kirkland Signature Canola oil Cooking Spray then it is 0.5 Syns for 6 sprays according to SW!

Hi there! I can't see what the first two are from your pics, but the Macaroni Cheese is 6 Syns and the Tomato & Mozarella Pasta Bake is 4.5 on Green. If you post the names of the other two I will look them up for you. Hope this helps. x

I can only find chilled ones listed and they are 1 Syn each. Hope this helps.

The Cumberland ones are 1 Syn each.

Weightwatchers Summer Fruits and Citrus Fruits ones are free and very nice.

Yes, any supermarket will do it. It's really cheap and all you do is add boiling water and cover it for 5 minutes. So quick and easy!

Plain couscous is FREE and you can add herbs and spices of your own to give it more flavour. However, other packets of couscous e.g. Ainsley Harriot and own brands do have Syn values, depends on the packet as to how much.

My favourite lunch to make in the morning for lunchtime is Couscous with mixed beans (you can get them in tins) or maybe feta cheese and a big salad to go with it. Then a yogurt and some fruit for after.

Day 25: Breakfast: Weightwatchers Yogurt. Banana, Apple and 2 satsumas. Lunch: Cheese (HExA) toastie (HExB1) with a salad of lettuce, tomatoes, cucumber, carrot, sweetcorn, green beans, mixed beans (kidney, borlotti and cannellini) Tea: 3 Linda McCartney Red Onion...

Hello, I don't know about this one, but the Bombay Curry is 2.5 (EE/Green), Indian Dahl Curry is 3.5 (EE/Green) and the Thai Coconut Curry with Soya Beans, Rice and Pak Choi is 8 (EE/Green). Hope this helps.

Hi, sorry to read that you are feeling so rubbish atm...the sooner you see the Dr the better.

Day 24: Breakfast: FF Yogurt with blueberries and strawberries. 2 slice Hovis (HExB1) with Marmite. Lunch: Couscous Salad with lettuce, tomatoes, carrot, beetroot, pickled onions, sweetcorn and grated half fat cheese (HExA) Sprinkled lightly with Thai 7 Spice...

Hi, they are 5 Syns per pot.

Aww thank you. When I am determined, I will stick to it stubbornly...but then when I fall off the wagon, I fall off in style lol! Yes, had a lovely time away, although the rain was a bit of a pain! We had a lovely morning on the beach in the wind and rain...felt like December not May! The...

thank you :)

Well back from my time away and it was fine. Thankfully my Mum was totally supportive and did not try and persuade me to eat off plan. I was really pleased with myself as I managed to stay on track. Phew! So at WI yesterday I was really chuffed to lose 1.5 lbs, making a total of half a stone...

Thank you :)

Hi! I don't know about these ones, but I had Sainsbury's own fresh egg noodles yesterday and they were 2 Syns per 100g. Hope this helps.

This is the last diary I will post for a few days as I am going away with the kids and won't have access to a computer. Also< I will not be completely in control of the food as I am staying with my Mum! I will be aiming for a maintain next week! Day 15: Breakfast: 2 slices Hovis (HExB1)...

Thank you. Salad and beans are brilliant together!

Sorry I did not mean to offend anyone...I was surprised and pleased that so many soups were listed when the book only lists 10 and I was not in any way trying to say you were wrong.

Looking on the Slimming Website, there are over 40 soups listed at heb's!!! Unfortunately you cannot copy and paste them as they are in a drop down list!! Sadly the Heinz Farmers Market one is not listed.

Hi, they are free and the following are free on all plans too: Pieces (Bacon, Beef, Chicken and Tikka) Fillets (Chicken, BBQ, Fajita) Sweet Red Onion Burgers Strips (Steak, Lamb, Fajita) Family Roast Mince Slices (Ham, Chicken, Peppered Beef, Turkey) Swedish Style Balls LOW FAT Sausages...

But not Sainsbury's...that one is 8 Syns for a can :O If you like Dahl, Ainsley Harriot's Lentil Dahl is free.

Hi! I might be too late?! I ate out at ASK! last night and had Spaghetti Pomodorou. Their pasta is cooked from dry not fresh so that is free. I allowed for olive oil (2 x B choices on Green) and the Mozarella (A Choice). I don't think there would be many additional Syns on top. You can...

WI today and I lost 2 and half pounds! Yey!!! Day 15: Breakfast: 2 slices Hovis (HExB1) with Marmite. Activia FF Yoghurt. Banana. Lunch: Jacket potato with baked beans. Side salad of lettuce, tomato, red onion, cucumber, radish. Chilli Vinegar for dressing. Dinner: Vegetarian...

Hi, I can't find a Greek style apricot and honey listed, but there is a Brooklea Duo Fruit Split Pot with Peach and Apricot for 5 Syns. Hope this helps.

Why do I always pick the night before WI to go out?! I think I will be ok though. Fingers crossed! Day 14: Breakfast: Kiwi, Strawberries and grapes with Activia FF Yoghurt. Lunch: Pasta with cottage cheese, tomatoes, red pepper and cucumber. Banana. Apple. Tea: I ate out at ASK! I had...

You're right, it is not veggie friendly there, but in the end, Café Rouge was closed for refurbishment!!! Even more annoying because I had a £20 Tesco Clubcard reward to spend :mad:. We ended up going to ASK! And yes, I had the wine!!!

You are welcome...just one I made up so I hope it tastes nice for you too!!!

Work again today so packed lunch day! I am not having any Syns today because I am going out for dinner tomorrow night at Cafe Rouge. Options for vegetarians are limited and I cannot find any Syn values online :( I have decided to go for the Aubergine Gratin which comes with a salad which...

Thanks Deathworm! It's not from a recipe, just one I made up, but it was yummy! I used: 1 400g tin of Green Lentils 1 400g tin of Butterbeans Packet of pre-chopped casserole veg (carrot, oinion, swede) 1 carton of passata Vegetable stock Mixed herbs and tarragon. Salt and pepper. Just...

Work today so packed lunch for me. Day 12: Breakfast: "Magic Porridge" (HExB1) made with FF Natural Yoghurt. Blueberries. 2 Linda McC Red Onion and Rosemary Sausages. Lunch: Cheese, tomato and cucumber sandwich (HExA and HExB2). Banana. Tea: Lentil and Butter Bean...

I know, I am weird! Marmite, no cake, whatever next!!! It's funny because I don't dislike cake at all, but I never fancy eating it for some reason. I can't really explain it. There are so many other things I should avoid LOL! I have looked for the Syns but there is no definitive answer...

Hi, I just looked on Syns Online, but it is not listed there. Hope someone can help.

Today was a nice family day. We met up with hubby's brother and his family, plus mother-in-law and her partner. We went to Frankie and Benny's for lunch. I chose a green salad to start (so got loads of comments from everyone..like "why don't you have some dressing"...er, I would have asked for...

Hi, your takeaway swapping is brilliant...well done! It feels so good when you manage to not give in to temptation. I was itching for a glass of red wine last night, but thought to myself that I would end up having 2 glasses and probably get the munchies too, so I made myself a Pepsi Max with...

Day 10: Breakfast: FF Natural Yoghurt with a banana, a kiwi fruit and blueberries. Lunch: Baked potato with baked beans, with salad of lettuce, tomato, cucumber, carrot and red onion. Dinner: Soya Mince Spaghetti Bolognese (soya mince, passata, onion, mushroom) served with penne pasta and...

Thank you. I feel fine now so not sure what it was! I rarely eat biscuits so that was a real treat lol!! Ooh how many Syns in the double choc breakaway???

For some reason, I felt a bit icky this morning so did not eat breakfast until 11am which has put my day out a bit. I feel ok now so not sure what it was. Day 9: Breakfast: "Magic Porridge" made with 35g Porridge Oats (HExB) and Activia FF yoghurt. Blueberries. 2 Quorn Sausages (2 Syns)...

Yes, that list is way out of date, but there are loads of low Syn or free Quorn products out there. I eat Quorn a lot and know that the following are free on all plans: Pieces (Bacon, Beef, Chicken and Tikka) Fillets (Chicken, BBQ, Fajita) Sweet Red Onion Burgers Strips (Steak, Lamb, Fajita)...

Thank you so much!! I am well chuffed!

Really pleased to lose 3lbs at WI today!!! Day 8: Breakfast: Apple. Satsuma. Activia FF Yoghurt. Lunch: 2 slices Hovis (HExB) with mozzarella (HExA1), tomato and herbs, then toasted under the grill - yummy! Huge salad of lettuce, tomato, cucumber, carrot, red pepper, beetroot and...

Hi, I just looked these up and.... Cuicina Bolognese Pasta Sauce is 11 Syns for the jar on all plans. Med Vegetable is 10.5, Tomato and Garlic is 14 SYns. Hope this helps.

Aww thank you. How can you not like Marmite lol!!!! Yes, you are right about finding the balance. I maybe thought this time I will eat SW all week and then be naughty at weekends. My version of the 2 Day Diet lol! I hope you are ok?

Well, it's first WI tomorrow so fingers crossed for a loss. I definitely feel less bloated and not so snug in my jeans lol!! I am really enjoyed getting back on plan this week and again wonder why I don't stick with it when I get to target. It's stupid really because the food is better, I...

Hi, 5½ Syns on EE or Green/ 8 Syns on Red. Hope this helps! I have tried a couple of different flavours (Indian Daal 3.5 Syns and Thai Sweet Chilli 2 Syns) and they are yummy.

Innocent Veg Pots (EE and Green): Indian Daal Curry 3.5 Syns Thai Vegetable Sweet Chilli 2 Syns Normally they are expensive but have been on offer a couple of times recently at £2 a pot. Nice for when you are in a hurry or to eat at work. They take 4 mins in the microwave and have no...

It's odd today, I think I feel hungry, but then I am not sure if I am. Does that make sense? Well, I'll just have a cup of tea and see if that takes it away. Day 6: Breakfast: 2 Linda McCartneys Italian Sausages (1 Syn) with baked beans. Grapes. Lunch: Sandwich (HExB) with Mozarella...

As I am logging on so late, I am going to post for 2 days as I have already eaten tonight! Day 4 diary: Breakfast - 2 Quorn Sausages (2 Syns)and scrambled egg. Ketchup (1 Syn). Banana. Lunch - Baked potato with Baked Beans from SpudULike after swimming. Dinner - Quorn with Stir...

Yes, it is free on all plans :)....can you tell me if it is nice? I don't normally eat tinned ready meals but if it's free, it's good to have in the cupboard for emergencies!

They are 1.5 Syns each - that is for the frozen ones (30g each).

For some reason I cannot go down another line? Odd. Am having to cut and paste old posts. Day 3 diary: Breakfast - 1 scrambled egg and baked beans on 2 slices of Hovis (HExB), Banana. Lunch - 4 slices Quorn ham, 45g Mozarella (HExA), Lettuce, Carrot, Cucumber, Tomato, Beetroot Salad...

Wow, just seen this and am so happy :bliss::bliss::bliss:and looked them up on Slimming World Syns Online and they are FREEEEEEEEEE!!

Hello! The Meat Free Lincolnshire Sausages 1/2 Syns each; Chicken Style pieces are FREE; Quarter Pounder Burgers are 1/2 Syn each; frozen mince is 3 Syns for a 400g pack; don't get the meatballs 'cos they are 13 Syns for the pack!!! Hope this helps.

Thanks girls...I must say I feel great to be starting again. You are right about the Syns Missy, but I am only going minimal for one week to kick start things. After that I will aim for 10-15 a day...

Hi does anyone know of any low Syn options at Café Rouge! I am going there as part of a group so no choice of venue :( I should add that I am vegetarian so any ideas on that front would be very much appreciated!! Thank you.

Back on track So, after a 5-month break and a whopping 1 stone gain :eek:, I have finally got back to SW today. I have been shopping and feel very energised...so here we go again lol! I am going to start off with minimal Syns just get going. Breakfast: 2 slices of Hovis (HExB) with...

Thank you so much! I can now eat my tea!!!

Hello! Can anyone help me with the Syn Value for the Innocent Thai Curry Veg Pot? Thank you very much!!

Happy New Year to you too!!

Hey, sorry you are having such a rough time. It's hard especially when everyone around is full of Christmas Cheer etc. That's good news about your Grandad though.

Yey! Often the most unexpected pairs go together lol!!!

Well, today was my first day after hitting target and I have not followed the plan at all!!! Probably helped by feeling a touch better, I have consumed.... Breakfast: 2 slices Hovis with marmite (HExB). 2 Satsumas. Good start..BUT...Pub lunch with friends led to... Lunch...

Salad with curry??!!

Thank you, I will have a look there. And thank you, I can;t quite believe I got back in target range before Christmas, but I am so pleased I did...I might even relax a little now lol!!

Sorry but I thought you knew I was a weirdo ;)

THank you :)

Hi, is there a sub forum for people trying to maintain? I have just got back to target range this week and really want to stay there this time (this will be attenpt no. 3!!). I keep getting to target and then putting a stone back on - argghhhh! Thank you :) PS Sorry if it is somewhere...

Yey, well done...I said you might be surprised!!! Well done on your half stone award :happy036:

So sorry to hear that :(

Wooooo hoooooo!! I lost 3.5lbs this week!!!!!!!!!! I am now back in target range and freeeeee of paying for class. I suspect the rotten cold all week accounted for most of the loss, but hey I'll take it :happy036::happy036:. I still feel rough so have not felt like eating much today again...

Sorry to hear your Grandad is ill..your poor Mum. It is never a good time, but Christmas seems to be the worse when things like this happen. I hope he rallies and makes it through. I think the man with the mouldy car was trying too hard to sell you it. Suggests the mould is more than...

Ooh I get that face thing too, down the left side. My Mum tells me it is my trigeminal nerve!! Perhaps everyone else are the weirdos...! I love Olbas Oil too! I am addicted to VIcks Nasal Inhalers too. I even use them when I haven't got a cold. I think that might be a tad weird lol!! I...

Thank you :). Good luck to you too....you never know, you might be ok.

Well, I am all topped up with Sudofed...eyeballs stopped aching finally but the cold is really coming out now :cry:. Oh, well hopefully it will be gone for Christmas! My last day at work today and tomorrow is last WI before Christmas so I am really hoping to get back into my target range. I...

No not at all surprising you can't. Hope you feel better soon. Even my eyeballs ache today!

I have not felt hungry today due to a rotten cold. Normally I try and eat a lot more salad and vegetables, but just have not felt like it :(. Monday's diary: Breakfast: 2 Quorn Sausages (2 Syns), Poached Egg, tomato sauce (1.5 Syn). Banana. Lunch: Half Fat Cheese and Quorn Ham...

Aww thank you. I am so determined to get back into target range for Christmas that my willpower is the best it has ever ever been! Blimey, reading your story about your surgery and blood tests is really scary. That must have been so so frightening to be restrained like that. Just awful to...

Sunday was a bit of a mish mash to be honest. I stayed within plan, but not with proper meals as such so I am not going to post a list for yesterday. I had my HExA and B, about 10 SYns and lots plenty of superfree so all good! Today was my twins 10th birthday!!! Cannot believe they are...

Have fun with your family tomorrow!

I don't think you can eat too much superfree! I try and aim to feel satisfied rather than overfull and make sure at least 1/3 is superfree. I don't think you can go too wrong with that! Your buffet sounds perfect, just make sure you touch the pizza with some meat or better still buy a...

Saturday's food Breakfast: 2 Linda McCartney Red Onion Sausages, Baked Beans, raspberries, FF Yoghurt. Lunch: Big plate of Couscous with mixed beans, carrot, lettuce, cucumber, celery, tomato, olives (1 Syn). Salad Cream (1.5 Syns). Dinner: 2 slices Nimble (HExB), 20g half fat...

Well done on your 2lb loss - your diaries look really filling so that must have helped you this week. You have inspired me to get my Wii Fit out now!! I have not used it for a year because I did not want it to tell me how far off target I was lol!!! Stupid huh? I know what I weigh so why is...

Hi Missy, to be honest I don't know what the reason is for not doing it when ttc, it was just something the nurse at the time told me - that was about 15 years ago now so maybe things have changed! And, about the needles, you don't actually see them (unless you make yourself look!), it doesn't...

Hello! Sorry to hear u needed a transfusion too. I hope all is well now. I don't think you can give if you have had a transfusion since 1980 and they say 4 months after a tattoo. All the guidelines are here: Give Blood - Who Can't Give Blood but you can ring them to ask for advice. It only...

I know lots of people who have big problems with needles etc after bad experiences. Sorry to hear you needed a transfusion - hope all is ok now. I started giving blood when I was 18. I had a long break whilst ttc (I was told it was not a good idea) and then after having my children due to...

Hi, how are feeling today? Better I hope...

Well she said Quorn I think!! It did have the same texture as Quorn and tasted nice enough. I would have it again, better than the pancakes with just the spring onion and cucumber which I normally have lol!!

Friday...I gave blood today and was a bit worried about feeling bad due to eating less, so filled up on a big breakfast. I took a banana and an apple to eat after and avoided the crisps and biscuits I would normally have after. I felt fine - phew!! Breakfast: 2 Linda McCartney Sausages...

I know, it made me giggle too! It looked like Quorn strips and did not taste like duck or chicken to be honest!! It was called Duck Surprise!! Goodness knows what it was lol, but she assured me it was Quorn!! Our meal tonight was lovely and the children enjoyed it...I managed to stop myself...

THank you! I appreciate you replying...now I can open that bottle tomorrow lol!!

Hello! Can anyone please tell me if Balsamic Vinegar is counted as a vinegar and therefore FREE??? Thank you :)

ANother meal out tonight - eeek!! THis time it is for my twins birthday tea at a 50's DIner...all burgers and chips!! But, I have phoned ahead and can have a jacket potato with beans and a salad :rolleyes:. How exciting!! I have 1lb to go to get back in my target range and stop paying for...

I haven't had time to logon and post my food diary for the last couple of days! Yesterday, I had another night out - eek! THis time chinese and an all-you-can-eat menu :eek:. Could be very dangerous, but as I had weigh in this morning, that kept me in check....AND I lost 1.5lb this...

Thank you...I am all signed up and will have a good read through. And another well done for sticking at it...that takes a lot of commitment and hard work, but so worth it when you buy your size 12's hey!

Monday's diary: I seem to be having Quorn sausages for breakfast every day at the moment, but they are so filling and yummy :)!!! Breakfast: 2 Quorn Sausages (2 Syns), Spaghetti Hoops, Poached Egg, tomato sauce (2 Syns). Grapes. Lunch: Half fat Cheese and Marmite Sandwich (using...

Oh wow that place looks fabulous...I wish there was one near me!

Hello! Thanks for your nice comments. I know what you mean about getting same-ish with what you eat and I am hoping this diary will help me keep a bit of variety in there. DO you do a food diary here too? If so, I would love to subscribe! And...WOW on your amazing 4st loss...that is so...

Sunday's diary: Breakfast: 2 Quorn Sausages (2 Syns), Baked beans, grilled tomatoes, grilled mushrooms. Lunch: Tin of Baxters Mediterranean Tomato Soup (HExB). Banana. Activia FF Yoghurt. Dinner: Chickpea, Tomato, Mushroom and Onion Curry with boiled rice. Apple...

Thank you! I think it depends on where you go and who you are with though. This was easy 'cos it was italian and also because the people I went with are not the types to comment on what you are or are not eating or drinking!

So, last night's meal went really well. We had a great laugh and I really enjoyed myself, without drinking (!) and I stuck to the plan! In the end, I had a rocket salad with olives to start with (only 6 olives, no dressing and no oil - still nice), I steered away from the garlic bread that was...

Yesterday was another good day...more Christmas shopping...but it is now done...let the wrapping commence lol!! Tonight I am going out with the Mums from school and it is Italian :eek:, but I am all planned for it. I am not using any Syns during the day and my HExB will cover some of the oil...

I spent yesterday Christmas shopping...still more to do, but made a big dent in it! I ate lunch while out, but chose a salad from M&S which was free apart from the salad cream :) I bought a bottle of Rose on the way home with the intention of treating myself to a couple of glasses, but when it...

Hi Missy, I think I just have a mental block with Green Days! But your explanation makes total sense! Maybe one day I will be brave.....

Sounds like a good plan :) and maybe make sure the two B's are different types of food i.e. not all bread?

Well done on your 3lbs - keeps you on track for your goal :) I agree that using both HExA for cheese would be loads which is why I do EE and only have 1 HExA (which I tend to split between skimmed milk and half fat cheese). I will look out for Half fat red leicester cos the cheddar is a bit...

Yey, WI this morning and I lost another 4lbs (that was for the last 2 weeks). That is over half a stone in 3 weeks and I am now over half way back to target :happy036: So, here is Wednesday's food: Breakfast - 2 Linda McCartney Sausages (4 Syns), 1 egg omelette, Banana and Grapes Lunch -...

They both sound yummy! I am going to Sainsbury's tonight so will get either Quinoa or Pearl Barley, whichever I see first !!!

I agree, lentils are fab and very filling! With this casserole, I used tinned green lentils, so super easy too :) Have you made anything nice with your Pearl Barley :)

Tuesday... Breakfast - 2 Quorn Sausages (2 Syns), poached egg, grilled mushrooms, grilled tomatoes, 15g Brown Sauce (1 Syn). Lunch - Sandwich using 2 slices Hovis (HExB), 20g half fat cheddar (1/2 of HExA), marmite, lettuce, cucumber, salad cream (1.5 Syns). Activia FF Yoghurt. Banana...

Monday.... I decided to work out how much protein I was having as this is often a concern for veggies. Well, based on the food below, I had 63g of protein on Monday. The recommended amount is 46g! So no problem at all!! Breakfast - Fat free Fromage Frais with Melon, Grapes and Banana. Baked...

Quorn Sausages are ok, but probably not if you are a meat-eater lol ;) I spray them in Frylight and then grill them.

Hmm, I looked at Pearl Barley too but did not really know what to do with it apart from put it in soup! I am definitely going to get Quinoa though, the article I read said it was a "source of complete protein, fibre, phosphurus, magnesium and iron, and it contains calcium." Well, yesterday was...

Thank you for your help. I am definitely going to look at green days. I read yesterday that Quinoa is a great source of protein - have you ever tried it?

Hello! This morning I had a Quorn Sausage Sandwich (1 syn plus HExB), followed by a fruit salad of banana, blueberries and satsuma topped with fat free fromage frais.

I changed my mind and used the chick peas in a stir fry today, but will definitely have a go at the houmous another day :)

Hello! Thanks for the advice. I have always done Extra Easy and it seems to work, but I might have another look at Green. Wow you have done so well. That is an amazing achievement. You must be so pleased with yourself. I know that the Syns are low...I tend to stay between 5-10 otherwise I...

The Christmas tree is up! I best get started on the present shopping now :( I am very behind this year...not sure why but I cannot get motivated. I have to get going as it is my children's birthday (twins!) the week before xmas - eek! Food-wise, another good day yesterday. I am trying to be...

Ooh thank you, I will have a look for that book :)

Thank you so much, I think I was adding too much lemon juice and no reserved water! I will give your recipe a go tomorrow. :) PS Your food diary is packed full of useful ideas :) It's really helpful as there are no vegetarians at the Club I go to!

Hello! I know that you can make Syn Free Houmous and have tried following the ingrediants on the SW website. However, they do not give quantities :confused: and I cannot seem to get the flavour right!! Can anyone tell me how to make this please? Thank you :)

Well, yesterday was a good day. I am feeling very angelic because my kids had friends for tea after school and they wanted Pizza. Normally I pinch a slice or two but managed to resist by eating some raspberries, and then they had Mini Magnums but I managed to stand back from them too...

Thanks for your replies! My first...how exciting :) I only do Extra Easy and have always done well on it in the past. I am not sure Red works on a vegetarian diet and Green seems too much with an extra A and B choice.

Hello! This is my first post on this Forum, so looking forward to getting to know everyone. Well, I am back to Club after putting on a stone since the start of the summer :( oops!! I lost 2 stone last year and am hoping to get back to Target by January. Week 1 was last week and I lost 4.5...
