Look, ladies....I know I'm an alien because I don't like chocolate. You don't all need to gang up on me ::sniff:: :rotfl:

I've always preferred savoury to sweet - I use my syns on gravy, HP sauce, stir fry sauces and cheese :drool: (not all at once, I might add...).

Give me a starter and / or a decent cheese board any day.

Mags - I'm an alien too - savoury beats sweet for me too! We can sit in the corner together and drool over that cheese board!:hello:

I do think it's probably a little easier for us aliens doing SW but I found myself drooling over a bumper pack of roast chicken & thyme crisps this morning, didn't dare think about the syns in that:eek: I'm really missing pork with crackling and skin on duck and chicken. Fortunately I had cut down on cheese (OH's cholesterol) and wine before starting SW so that's been a help. I've always made my own stir-fry sauces and have just replaced the sherry with a bit of beef stock. I find stock, chillis, ginger, garlic and soy works a treat with beef and pork and it's totally free. I haven't found anything for chicken yet as my recipe involves honey and sherry. Any free chicken stir-fry ideas?

WI for me tonight (can't make my usual group tomorrow). I've gone over on wine syns this week and had a meal out of dubious origin (it was lamb kleftiko which must have had oil in it) plus I'm sure my holiday the week before will catch up with me. STS would be a bonus!

I'm so very, very full....

Dinner was scrummy, decided to have my other A after all, melted 35g of cheese over my SW chips. Looking at my plate no one would have believed i was on a diet:rotfl:

Hopefully the * monster will stay reined in for the rest of the evening!

Thanks hun, i cant believe its 10syns, i'm gutted. Oh well that'll be staying in the cupboard till i'm desperate coz there aint no way i'm wasting 10syns on soup:D

Had a bit of a pants day yesterday:(. Went to my mums after taking ds to nursery, i'd barely been in the door 5mins when she presented a huge box of thorntons. I only had 2 so could have been worse, well actuall things did get worse, i had 2 mini muffins and a latte at a coffee shop and then scoffed fish and chips for tea:o, just one of those days i think.
Anyways having a green day today -
B - bran flakes (heb, and half hea)
L - pasta with philly and cheese (half hea and half heb)
T - smash pizza (hea for cheese) - never made this before so i hope its nice. Pizza is one of my downfalls.
S - alpen light (half heb), nana and mini bag of haribo (2).
Keeping my syns low to make up for yesterday

Hi everyone, so you may remember that I posted about getting my mum Slimming World membership as a Christmas present....well turns out she qualifies for free membership for 3 months from her GP and went for the first time this afternoon! So I'm joining her on this journey (but not going to the meetings!) so you can expect to see a lot more posts from me on this thread!

That's great news. Do keep us posted on your progress (and your mum's too).

Fab news.....you can do what another poster recommended now, and buy her a few nice sw recipe books...amazon or ebay always have nice ones...

Good luck to both of you.

Hoorah! It's not just me

I have a feeling though that if we start talking about our favourites the way some of this lot talk about chocolate we could be considered even more strange. I'm up for that :T

For the normal folks out there - just think, if we don't want it, that means the world supply is in absolutely no danger! Those pieces you do decide to have (within your syns or not) are totally safe from us aliens...
