Hello everyone,
I have joined SW online and have lost approx 1 stone since January. I have a question about syns. Do you have to have them to lose weight?
The book I have outlines the Sw diet, and after explaining about free foods and healthy extras, says "if you still have room" and then talks about syns. This (to me) implies you dont have to have them.
I remember being at the SW meetings a few years ago and one of the class members not having her syns for a few days that week. When she went to weigh-in, she found did did not lose. When out consultant checked her food diary, she said it was because she did not have her syns on all her days.
Clearly, if it means I will lose weight quicker, then I will use less. I find they come in handy for crisps and low syn snacks.
I have checked the SW website and it doesn't really confirm it either way.
Can anyone help? I am sure this has been asked before.
It's like WW - if you dont eat all your points, it has been known that members have not lost - so is SW the same?
Thanks very much
