Hi all, I don't have sw membership as simply can't afford it so am going it alone, I google the syn value of products but keep getting contradicting answers mainly on aldi products but specifically the fat free Greek yogurts lemon and the coconut+vanilla some people saying they put in calculator and they free others say they come up 0.5 syns? Also the benefit light bars less than 70 cal some say hexb some say 3.5 syns I used to have 2 alpen light bars and muller light for breakfast and it was great but getting expensive so switched to aldi products above now I'm worried as there is a big difference to having hexb and free for breakfast or the possibility of using 7.5 syns!

Please help 6weeks till wedding and dress doesn't fit 8lb to get to ultimate target

Hi there, the Benefit Light Bars Chocolate & Fudge, Summer Fruits and Apple & Sultana - 2 Bars are 1 HEB. The Brooklea Fat Free Greek Style Yogurts are all free on all plans, the Lemon, Strawberry and also the Coconut & Vanilla...good luck reaching your target in time for the wedding :)
 
Sam your a ? thank you so much started panicking for a while as tend to only use 7-10 syns a day if I can and thought I was having double that! Just tucking in to 400g pineapple for lunch! I'll keep you updated on dress/wedding target, have you been doing sw long?

I've been on slimming world on and off for 2 years, I done weight watchers before that. I joined almost 2 years ago, lost weight then put most of it back on. I rejoined last year and have loved every minute of it, now I really enjoy experimenting with food, even my attitude towards healthy eating has changed :)
 
That's great Hun well done you! Have you got much to lose? Iv been really good but went to a wedding last night then our for dinner today so need to get back on track hope iv not done too much damage!

Hey, I've about 9lb left to lose now though I'm quite happy with my shape and size now so I don't put too much pressure on myself :)
 
I'm the same about 8lb to go but I always get down to this weight then really struggle to go lower so end up having a strop giving up and piling loads back on! Determined to stick with the slow losses now need to get in my dress! Xx
 
Ooh am glad I read this - I love the lemon greek yogurts but most makes are synned (1/2). Trip to Aldi I think!!!
