eating for the sake of it to use syns

I have been doing SW for 11 months and have lost just over 4 stone. In the early days I used to have about 5 syns a day and this was fine. Now I find I am using 13-14 a day as I have started thinking "it's ok to eat that as I have syns left". I need to get out of this mindset as it will lead me to overeating! Does anyone else find they have started doing this? Need to snap out of it! Grin

Do you mean you're eating 13 sync a day?

am having about 13 a day (including the things I find myself eating for the sake of it) which i know is within the guidelines but i find i have a freddo or something when I don't really want it just because I have syns spare (so i was previously only having about 5 a day but am now at the upper end of the daily allowance) if that makes sense?

Try putting a picture of you at your biggest on the cupboard you keep your goodies in or the fridge. It worked for me. Every time I was bored and felt like a snack I had to look at the fat me staring at me and it really made me stop and think do I really want/need this .

Think ringing your consultant is a really good idea Smile
