How Many Syns Should You Have Per Day?

Syns are a vital part of the Slimming World plan. They allow you to enjoy some of your favorite foods while still losing weight. But how many syns should you have each day?

The recommended number of syns per day is:

3-5 syns for women

5-10 syns for men

However, this is just a guideline. You may need to adjust your syn allowance depending on your individual needs and goals.

How to Calculate Your Syn Allowance

To calculate your syn allowance, you need to know your target weight and activity level.

Your target weight: This is the weight you want to reach.

Your activity level: This is how active you are on a daily basis.

Once you know your target weight and activity level, you can use the following formula to calculate your syn allowance:

Syn allowance = (target weight ÷ 5) + (activity level x 2)

For example, if your target weight is 150 pounds and you are moderately active, your syn allowance would be:

Syn allowance = (150 ÷ 5) + (2 x 2) = 34 syns

Benefits of Sticking to Your Syn Allowance

Sticking to your syn allowance can help you lose weight and improve your overall health. Here are some of the benefits of eating within your syn allowance:

Weight loss: Eating within your syn allowance can help you lose weight by reducing your calorie intake.

Improved blood sugar control: Syns are typically high in sugar, so eating within your syn allowance can help improve blood sugar control.

Reduced risk of heart disease: Syns are often high in saturated fat, so eating within your syn allowance can help reduce your risk of heart disease.

How to Make the Most of Your Syns

Here are some tips for making the most of your syns:

Choose healthy syns: Not all syns are created equal. Some syns, such as fruits and vegetables, are healthier than others, such as processed foods.

Use your syns wisely: Don't blow all of your syns on one meal. Spread them out throughout the day so you can enjoy them all week long.

Don't be afraid to experiment: There are many different ways to use your syns. Get creative and find ways to enjoy your favorite foods while still staying within your syn allowance.
