Are you finding using your syns weekly works for you?? If I'm honest, I don't count alcohol in my syns... I tend to go out on a Sat night after WI, so I consider it my treat!! Hasn't done me too much harm as yet, but I'm sure it will! Hate the thought of a night out where I have to keep track tho! I'm thinking about giving up alcohol altogether in January, just for a while, to cleanse, and hopefully that will help with the weight loss!! xx
Laura, It does work for me. I know that I am not going to stop going out (or more to the point drinking beer that is my downfall) but by doing this I feel I am sticking to the plan. There are times that I do end up slightly going over my syns because of it but I work out on a Sunday what I have left for the week and stick to that and if it is slightly out then it will work out over time.
I also weigh in on a Sat morning which gives my body a time to sort it all out.

I have had a few days "off" as I was away for the weekend at my parents so am now back on plan and trying to do damage limitation till my weigh in next weekend. On Friday I ate "normal" food based on the meals mum cooked for me so nothing really high in calories but dinner did include roast tatties and parsnips. Then it went down hill, Saturday included a few cakes but lots of body magic (oh and oatcakes and cheese after dinner). The less said about Sunday the better but it included a mars bar, bag of minstrels and a (large) flapjack with no exercise at all.

Did metafit at lunchtime and it was a very hard class, the muscles in my legs are not happy (and climbing the stairs in the office results in some very unprofessional words). Suffering from the afternoon munchys which is not good but trying to kill it off with satsumas (and resist the chocolate machine)
