    Some of the ones at work are doing slimming world so we decided to take it in turns making lunches, my turn tomorrow and I made quiche. I couldn't get fat free cotage cheese, just low fat. I used 1 pot which about 160 cals - can anyone tell me the syn value of this?

    One and a half syns per 100g is the highest value I can find online :)

    Falafel, hummus and tabbouleh salad is something I'm working on - picked it up in M&S last weekend and it was delicious, I posted the falafel and hummus recipes on this thread a few days ago but haven't attempted the bulgur wheat yet, it was lovely and herby though!

    I have a taster night in 2 weeks, not a fan of them, really don't get much out of them so I think I will just weigh & go...

    I also find it difficult as I can't eat cheese so I don't really feel comfortable eating things when I won't know if cheese is in it :(

    Can anyone tell me is it ok to go between two different groups? I work an hour and a half away from my home and it would be great to have the option of going to a 5.30 meeting after work (if I get out in time) or going to the 7.30 meeting at home....

    So much for baking something nice for the taster this evening! Just spent the night in a&e with mr wellyd. He's dosing on a trolley so I'm going to sneak out to get weighed. I cannot miss another week. Expecting a 4-5lb weight gain.

    Yeah, it's no trouble at all. Every now and again a "visitor" pops up in our group

    Fingers crossed I'll have him back to full health soon!

    Also my anticipated 4-5lb gain was in fact a 5lb loss! Only 1.5lbs to my 3 stone award! Fingers crossed for that next week! Whoops just realised I've a christening at the weekend! Still maybe if I've a few good days before that!

    My no carb day yesterday ended with a huge plate of SW chips and a quark/sweet chilli dip. Topped off with a benefit bar for good measure. Can't wait for weigh in:pac::pac:

    I like it so far. It's great hearing how much other people have lost, where they might be going wrong and others giving them advise etc etc It really really motivated me yesterday evening and I'm feeling positive for the week ahead!

    Thanks for the reply tk. I am definitely gonna be sure to stay for the talk every week too as I feel that would keep you motivated. I just hope it works for me now!

    Have done slimming world before and lost a good bit. Ive been on it this time for 2 weeks and only lost a 1lb..have no idea why this is happening? I have my TOM at the moment so wondering if it could be that?

    Feeling very disheartened right now :(

    Stayed the same, happy enough, 2 non slimming world dinners in a row plus a disgusting but calorific pancake will all have contributed to the lack of a loss... Back home today so back on plan :)

    In ours you have new members talk with the leader for about 30 mins while everyone is getting weighed, then she has a talk (ours this week was about pancakes lol) and then she goes through how people did - eg 'mrmorgan you lost 5lbs well done!' everyone claps if there's a loss :p and you can chat about how you got on/ask for advise if you want
