    Hi all,

    I have a question that I hope someone can help me with.

    I bought some chocolates from Hotel Chocolat yesterday in Southampton, of course I couldn't resist as they were on offer and look scrummy!

    Does anyone know how I would work out the syns in each one? they have a list of ingredients on the back but not the nutritional content.

    Any ideas????

    I need an answer to a EE question as I'm giving it another go but I'm a bit rusty

    If I have a mug shot as a snack do I HAVE to have some fruit afterwards to make it EE?

    Not sure on that, but I always do and I always do EE.

    For example

    breakfast Fruit, yog

    Lunch Pasta and sauce

    Snack fruit

    Dinner meat, veg

    The snack fruit outwighs the pasta and sauce only for lunch _Iyswim

    No as long as from the total amount of food you eat today 1/3 of it is super free.

    Hey everyone,

    Deep breath and....I'm here!

    Started Slimming World on Monday and so far I've got loads of EE days behind me. I was on this diet awhile ago and was losing 4lbs a week whilst eating mountains of food, so I think it's the way to go for me. Kinda worried about Monday's WI (at home) because I have been eating a lot, but this thread is great, I've been reading it at work and I'm hooked!

    So, today was EE.
    Breakfast: Wholemeal toast (HEB), pineapple in fromage frais
    Lunch: Jacket potato, tuna, salad and 2 plums.
    Dinner: Take away. BUT I'm having a chicken kebab, no pitta and extra salad, so all FREE! A free take away sounds amazing to me <3
    Snacks: Hob nob (4.5). Seriously was NOT worth 4.5 syns Rainbow Drops 4 syns (I think)

    Pretty impressed with today. Saving syns for a white magnum tomorrow, yum!
    I like to make money
    Best wins: £3,000 luxury holiday, holiday in Cornwall, £250 Murad Skincare hamper, angle grinder


    :j Make £10 a day challenger - it pays for trips to Florida! :j
