How many Syns?

[MissS1988]

I'm starting the SW diet on Monday and because I'm doing it on my own, not going to groups, I'm a little unsure of how many syns I should have each day? Does it depend on your weight? Or is there just a set amount?

I did the SW diet years ago and I've forgotten how many syns I had each day!

Thanks xx

You're probably best to start off by aiming for 15 a day and taking it from there. You can work on a daily basis and not carry syns over from one day to the next, or lots of people find it easier just to work weekly. You start the week with 105 syns and deduct them as you use them. This gives you some flexibility to use a few more syns at the weekend or for nights out. Just make sure you have at least 5 a day so that you don't feel deprived. Deprivation leads to craving and that can only lead to bad news!
