I am so glad I have some antiAS sisters on here!!Funnily enough Miss Phish I suffer from IBS!! I am currently sat having some sugarfree tonic so I am like you, torn between the two. It is either that or I think I would be tempted to sod the syns and have a bottle of wine tonight I am feeling so down due to DS's tantrums. But I don't suppose that is any better for my liver so tonight I will allow myself that. On top of that I haven't actually had my dinner yet as I have been on the phone moaning about DS to a friend. Anyone got a magic wand for the terrible twos (which look likely to be carrying on well into his 3s)?

Oh Dear, are you still allowed to ship 'em off to a workhouse and then request them back when they hit 18??

Hi

Just thought I would share my tip. I know lots of people think instant mash is foul, but its FREE on green and therefore worth trying to like.

So sometimes I have it for breakfast - yes.

Mix up a one-two person portion (I have twoish being greedy guts) -incidentally you get three sachets with Morrisons Bettabuy Instant Mash for 50p!!!!

You can also fry a couple of Quorn sausages in frylight and then chop them up. Add to mash. Then place half a tin of baked beans (heated up in microwave) on top of the mash and sausages if used. Then top with your healthy a) choice of cheese - I use 1 oz mature cheddar. It is seriously comforting and filling.

I use this recipe when I am in a rush, have no suitable food in - in fact have it for lunch and supper too.

Finish off under the grill.

My ds who is not on slimming world absolutely loves this. Quick and simple.

Nice easy dessert which works out at 1 sin if you use it as two portions.

Sugar Free Jelly mixed up to half pint. Allow to cool slightly. Then use 0% fat fromage frais (cheapest Morrisons at 75p for 500g). Divide into two or four portions depending on appetite. 4 portions then equals 1/2 sin each. This can work out nice and cheap when for instance Mullers go up in price or you get sick of them. This is a lot more filling.

Sugar free jelly mixed with cloudy lemonade (sugar free). As above but top up to the pint level with the lemonade. Gives it a nice kick. Same syn values as above.

Total 2% at around 2 sins per pot makes a lovely topping.

HTH someone.

Hi everyone, new to the boards and (coincidentally) SW too! Have just started my long long road to being slim and healthy and just wanted to wish everyone good luck with their weight loss too. Having a bit of a problem getting my head round how SW all works as not attending a class but so far think am doing ok. Anyway....hi everyone! ((waves))

I have just started back on slimming world- doing it myself- but am going to use this thread as support too!!! (if you will let me! ) I still have all my old books, recipes etc, from when i did it 2 years ago, but the village i live in now, only does weight watchers, i dont drive so i cant get to the nearest SW class for me! I would do it online, but the fee is quite a lot (imo) I have lost 8lbs this week! Ideally i want to lose at least 3 stone (4 would be nicer!) Good luck to all!
