Hi everyone!
I'm on day 1 of slimming world so still trying to understand it. Off to tgi tonight for a birthday dinner. Is there anything I should particularly pay attention to? I'm thinking they must have salads but how will I know about the syns?

Ask for a salad or a baked potato?
I simply wouldn't have the will power to not eat the entire menu!
I think you can get a grilled chicken breast and some veg there.
Good luck!

Ask for dressings etc on the side, they tend to be very high in syns! A grilled chicken breast, jacket potato and veg would be entirely syn free so if you started with something like that, or a salad, you would be able to add bits to it if you wanted to. Also, googling "syns in...." Tends to give you a good idea of how awful something is :)

They do stakes, so I'd get one of those with salad and a jacket.
Sauces on the side as already suggested.
I'd try to look at the menu online first so you know what you can have!
Good luck - I think you'll need it! Yum tgis!
