I got tempted by ice cream today - everyone in Galway seemed to be eating a cone!
Anyway I managed to resist a cone (8 syns, or 12 with a flake!) and had a Solero Exotic instead - yummy, and only 4.5 syns
And a Marks and Spencer Sweet Chilli Chicken Noodle Salad which worked out at 4.5 syns too, it was gorgeous though!0 -

Up half a pound after a week 100% on plan. It's going to be hard week to come especially because I didn't see what I wanted on the scales. I filled out a food diary so hopefully She'll be able to see something I'm doing wrong. I'm feeling really disheartened now.
I didn't take any sweets in work all week to be extra good!! I feel deprived now!

Up again for no reason - 3lbs this time. I'm going to give it a few more weeks but almost ready to quit going to group and continue on plan myself at home and save myself a few €€'s!
So sorry to hear that
how frustrating. I have thought the same as you. I switched groups and I know I moaned about my old one but I feel like I have never got that friendly vibe that they all say happens at SW groups. I have tried to chat to people in my new one but feel like it is me doing all the chatting so it has got to the stage that I stopped trying...
The fb group page for my new group is dead as a dodo in comparison to my old one. So I feel like I am in a catch 22 position...aargh. Feels silly to be missing my old group..there seemed to be more of a community there, maybe it is because my group is in town that it attracts a huge mix of people. For instance last week, only 2 people bought raffle tickets :eek: if I stopped going to group, I feel like I would be wary of the scales and lose access to the online syns calculator but not sure how much I get out of image therapy!Up half a pound after a week 100% on plan.

So sorry to hear that, it really can drive you mad sometimes. 0 -

Down 2.5 tonight and got my Club 10
I have no idea how, I'll take it though! I also got Slimmer of the Week again so have a stash of lovely food this week, dead handy considering I haven't had a chance to go shopping! Congrats on all the losses 0 -

Hi there! Just gone into week 2 of slimming world and still trying to find my way. I think in group they had glenisk fat free Greek style yoghurts on display to show they were free/low syn. I was looking at the vanilla one and picked one up in tesco yesterday. After pooring it over my berries for breakfast this morning I looked for it on the app and their website and it shows a high Syn value?
Can anyone tell me the Syn value as I'm really confused as they had it on the table to show they were ok to eat I think!
Thank you 0 -

The low fat vanilla comes in at 2.5 syns per 125g. I can't see a fat free vanilla variety on their website at all?
As far as I can see only their fat free natural (unflavoured) yogurt is free.
The Greek yogurts come in at 3.5 to 4.5 syns per little 125g pot.
Can't speak for the table at all groups but at my group, there's all sorts of stuff on it, for example 8 or 10 different yogurt pots with varying syn values. I think it's supposed to just highlight how much they can vary -for example, the fat free natural Greek yogurt is free, while full fat is 20 syns per 450g pot!
Also bear in mind that everything is 'ok to eat', I suppose you just have to decide whether you can justify spending 4.5 syns on a yogurt!

Yeah our groups table is the same - everything has syn values stuck to it to highlight the difference. My new fav is Liberte Greek style 0% natural - so thick and creamy!0 -

These are the ones that Glenisk were talking to me on twitter a while back! According to their calculations, and mine, and my consultant, they are between 1-1.5 syns. It's the new fat free greek style. Unfortunately SW haven't updated the syns online with these

Great to see so many doing well recently. My own discipline has gone to pot. Up a little 2 weeks, maintained this week. We were all over the shop at home so had nothing really prepared. It showed
Kinda back to normal now but still haven't got the head for it. I blame the sunshine and wanting to be outside all the time 0 -
I'm loving all the fruit and veg since ive been doing SW buy why is it so hard to get nice strawberries in the supermarket!? Eating some here, Keelings brand (so not cheap and not imported), they are so crap!! Watery and chewy and quite tasteless
I'm going to have to start buying them from the guys on the side of the road -I'll have to remortgage the cat 0 -

I gave up with the strawberries, too expensive so I stopped!
Weigh in looms for me in a few hours... If I don't get this 5 stone award, I will cry... I can't do much more!!
Congratulations all on doing so well!0 -

I feel the same about the Keelings raspberries, although they do taste lovely, but 8 out of 10 of them have some sort of mould growing on them despite them being in date and they are so expensive for such a small amount.0 -
