firstly congrats hugely for your loss, and good luck for tuesday.
how about having white wine spritzers with diet soda?? or having a glass of water alternately with a glass of wine, or what about low alcohol wine?
anyone else got any tips.?

Good idea to mix the wine with soda or diet lemonade, hmm...you could measure out your wine and keep it to one side and concentrate on only having that amount. Then you can be in control, where as pouring straight from a bottle might be hard to judge. If you was to measure out your amount and syn it, then you can have quite a few nice glasses with more soda/diet lemonade to wine so it will stretch more.

Enjoy!

Hi good luck towards your stone on tuesday - personally i would not have wine at all ive been to a pub about 6 times now and realised i'm happy to have a slimline tonic water instead and if friends pop round for a drink i have it in a wine glass. but your syns are there to be used so as not to feel deprived good luck and hope you have a nice time.

Hi, I usually buy the small bottles of wine for one so you can keep track... and when it's gone no topping up! which im guilty of
Or just measure it out before hand.
Maybe not for everyone but i fill my glass with ice cubes... keeps white wine really cold and dilutes it... lasts ages when drinking with friends

Thanks for the ideas and well wishes ladies. My plan is to use today's and tomorrows syns which will be 30 total, and have ice and diet lemonade with it. How many syns in a bottle of White? X
