    Even if it was 6 and not 10 that's still amazing for 1 week! Congrats!!

    The heartbreak diet has a lot to answer for, I am just going to try and be really good now to maintain that lost.

    Who says fags and coffee are not nutritional :D:D

    Stayed the same last night.

    Was told to exercise after eating :confused: if I insist on exercising.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,363 ✭✭✭Fiona


    I would always exercise after eating otherwise I would get the shakes and pass out.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19 Starlight28


    Has anyone tried the Scran Bran or is there an alternative cause I cant find them in any of the supermarkets?

    They are quite literally one of the most vile things that I've ever tasted :(

    I was running before eating but she said not to. :(

    I'll probably throw my guts up if I do this.

    Really, I was just going to try make a few things with them like the Scan Bran Ferrero Rocher. They sound nice and only 1 syn each. Not sure now.:confused:
    Has any 1 tried them ??

    I quite like them! I even eat them on their own like a biscuit. I made a cake once with scanbran, egg, baking powder and hot chocolate powder. It was alright, but I would just rather eat them plain.

    Folks, a heads up that Mug Shots (Syn free) are €1.49 for three in Dealz :)

    Usually €0.99 for one in Dunnes.

    Be very careful, some of the products such as mug shots and some of the weight wathers products from Dealz do carry a syn value compared to the mug shots from Aldi. Different ingredients and additives in them.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,871 ✭✭✭✭MugMugs


    I compared with one I got in Dunnes. Same thing, both made by Symingtons and both hailing from Dartmouth Way in leeds with similar nutritional values.

    Same product, not a knock off. They're actually "Mug Shots" :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 508 ✭✭✭dobbs2210


    How many syns in peanut butter (smooth)? Just wondering is it fattening or is it ok?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,871 ✭✭✭✭MugMugs


    The App averages out at 4.5 per level Tbsp

    It's really easy to get the wrong ones too, I think it's the colour of the writing that is the give away. I'm sure every one has seen this at their various groups but just in case I find it really handy to have it to hand and check when I'm in the shops

    Can anybody tell me exactly if sweetener (canderel, splenda) is ok for a person. In slimming world its deemed fine. Spoke to a dietician recently who warned its as bad if not worse than natural sugar. She felt the latter (it is worse!!). She advised it can be very bad for you.
    I use two canderel tablets in the morning with my tea and i shake the canderel powder on my porridge or cereal.

    aspartame has not been proven to be harmful. , yet to humans, but if your worried replace your red canderel with green , which is steevia, a natural based sweetner.
