i just had a look online at the Britvic J20 bottles, the 330ml ones are 8 syns :eek: thats more than a full fat beer.[/QUOTE]

wow that is a lot, but i looked up how many syns for a glass of lemonade and lime juice at the bar and that came out at 7-8, it seems more than a glass wine!:)

Trying to decide should i have a red or EE
had weetabix and milk for B
L - were out so rather than a starbucks sandwich or similar I went to the barrow boy and got 2 apples and a banana and I bought some nice ham in the deli so ate a slice of that. I also advoided my latte in starbucks and had a tea to save the syns (after last night I need to pull it back a bit !!!!!)

we have friends coming for tea after the match so am doing bacon and sausage butties so am considering having a buttie and having a red day or making a pile of sw chips and having sausage bacon and eggs (they can have the bread then if they want) mmmmmmm decisions decisions

It isnt Cadbury that make Options. Did you mean Highlights? All the option ones are 2 syns each (I love the Belgium Choc ones)


The Cadbury highlights are 2 syns as well.

You just need to be careful because there are some new flavours of Options out now that are more than 2 syns each.

And the Highlights Dark Chocolate, my favourite, is only a chocolicious 1.5 syns.

Thankyou - you're right, it doesn't say Cadbury on them it just says Options! 2 SYNS eh, jolly good, I don't often get a choc urge but they are there for the odd time. Just had half of a hass avocado - now that WAS worth the syns, I don't have a sweet tooth so avocado is my "ice creammmmmmmmm":p

and thanks toCirces - I have some Belgian Choc 37 caloris and mint madness at 34 calories.

Hi all,

I am new to this forum. I have started following the SW program, although I am not going to classes as I have borrowed the books of a friend of mine. We have a Change Challenge program through Occupational Health at work, so I have been getting weighed at work and doing SW on my own.

Anyway, I only started SW last Tues and when I was weighed on Friday, I had lost almost 3lbs (1.3 kilos). I love the SW approach as I am never hungry. I had been a long term yo-yoer on WW (but found it stressed me out too much and I was tired of counting points). Due to the years of yo-yoing, I am now fatter that I have ever been. So far I have also found that SW fits well with my vegetarianism.

Anyway, I have been enjoying reading your tips over the past few days. I will hopefully post another loss next week!!!

Congratulations and welcome to the group! 3lb is a very good loss! Wouldn't it be nice if we could do that every week! :rotfl: If you need any help or have any questions we are all happy to help. It is a little quiet here on weekends but plenty going on during the week.
