I started just using them for treats, but was getting bored. Now I am using them in my meals, like a bit of butter on my jacket potato, a tbsp of curry paste on some chicken, a bit of squirty cream on my fruit instead of yogurt, alpen light for a snack instead of plain fruit etc.

Theres a thread in the syn values subforum at the top of the page and people put in what they are spending their syns on every day. I got so many good ideas from there!

I use 5 syncs for a pack of crisps and the extra points might be used for extras in meals. I'm planning on having a Chinese this weekend as well for a treat.

Something tells me you once belonged to the dark side!

I use most of my syns for treats. I like some chocolate, crisps or cake every day. I may occasionally use them for an Indian or chinese takeaway.

I'm only one week in but my syns have been going mostly on chocolate!

I don't do slimming world anymore but I found I had better losses using syns on sauces and stuff rather than crisps/chocolate x

If you have the correct diet for the rest of what you are doing, then having an indulgance now and again shouldnt affect your overall goals, it is only when these step outside of the reward category, and back into a habit type situation

[vampalicious]

i use most of my syns on sugar for my coffee, just cant stand sweeteners but im trying to cut down, use other syns on tinned fruit in jelly, and gravy, thats about it, im only in my 4th week and i dont want to taste chocolate or crisps yet so i wont use my syns for them as im scared if i do ill want more... i can eat 10 bags of crisps in one sitting no problem

This thread and syns is great it gets you thinking about what you really want to spend them on.
I've learnt I don't need to eat fat on bacon that to me is a big waste of syns and Added fat into my body
