I love crumpets a lot. Before starting slimming world I had them every day for breakfast. They're 5 syns each so they had to go. I've done well and almost lost 1 and a half stone. Still have a long way to go but it's coming off.

Yesterday Dp only went and bought bloody crumpets. He made some for himself and Dd for breakfast before leaving. Now the house smells of crumpet goodness and I can't have any. I know if I have one I'd crack and eat the whole packet. I've made him hide the rest.

How can crumpets be free on ww and syns on sw? It's not fair.

I don't like the giant ones they tasted strange, they had a weird texture.

Now posting this is making me think of crumpets even more.

The crumpet thins are rubbish!! You're better off having one proper crumpet than two of the thins, imo. Grin

Grin My dh is having secret liaisons with crumpets

SawdustInMyHair · 04/04/2016 10:02

misses point of thread It grosses me out that the points on that scheme are called 'syns'.

But you didn't eat the crumpets op to well done you! At the same time, you should not feel guilty for eating one but that's the problem, it's ONLY eating the one. I am on the diet too and this morning I ate the last portion of a trifle sat in the fridge instead of porridge! I agree with pp, you can't really stop the rest of your family eating what they like. It's not their diet.

I've just gone to cupboard and mine ran out of date on the 30th March will they be ok??

YANBU. Put bleach on them and throw them in the bin. If they want more they can buy more, they're only cheap. Any other food must travel in dh's car boot (or is that just me?? Grin).

Well I ended up eating them anyway if I die you all know why

Shove them in the freezer, quickly.

What are you spending your 15 syns on?
Why not using them for crumpets from time to time

sleeplessinmybedroom · 04/04/2016 10:55

I'm spending most of my syns on my meals then by the time it's evening there's usually a few left for a hi fi bar. It wouldn't just be the crumpet it would be 2 for the butter and 1 for the jam so 8 altogether. I'm also not sure I could stop at one either.
