So its my friends birthday tonight, and obviously I have not announced to all my friends that I am now dieting, hence they picked Pizza Hut for us to eat this evening.

I'm one week into Slimming world and have no idea what to eat as I have been using the majority of my Syns each day. So far no Syns or HE's today as I was panicking about tonight.

Anyone have any ideas on what I can eat without only devouring only the salad bar?

I believe they will use oils etc. in their pasta.

HELP!

For the pasta's, you are looking at 14 syns for the Roasted Vegetable Pasta, 17.5 syns for the Salmon Pasta Bake, 20 syns for the Chicken Herby Pasta Bake, 25 for the Lasagne.

One of the best suggestions for Pizza Hut is to obviously fill up at the salad bar, but if you decide to get a pizza, go for the thin Italian base.
As an example, for the Regular Margherita Italian pizza you are looking at 48 syns for the whole pizza (8 syns per slice if sliced into 6). A regular pan margherita pizza would be 9 syns per slice if sliced into 6 (54 syns total) so you do save some syns.
And if you split a pizza between a couple of you, you can easily half the syns and then just load up on the salad bar This is generally what I tend to do, purely because I actually enjoy salad

I don't know when your friend last chekced the list of syns, but the lasagne is now 25 according to the Slimming World website.
I couldn't see the pizzetta on the Pizza Hut website... that sounds interesting though! I'm assuming it's something similar to the ring shaped pizza that Pizza Express do? (there's no middle to it apparantly!)

I have no idea, that's just what she forwarded to me. She's more of a takeaway/restaurant person than me - I just do home cooked meals [emoji23] I will let her know though, thank you!
I think the Pizzetta is similar to a grilled baguette topped with pizza stuff but I might be wrong - I'll be sure to ask her x

Hey Sarahc4356 thanks for the input. I'm going out with a bunch of healthy guys and don't really want to announce that I am cutting back as they are not the most tender spoken bunch of blokes out there!

I enjoy salad as well but definitely as a side! otherwise I will be tempted to binge later on!

I think the roasted vegetable pasta is a good shout!

Thanks again!

Thanks both for the input. Got an action plan for tonight now!!! Phew!!

Have a fantastic night

And if all else fails, have a look at the menu, sneak to the loo, ask us for advice on syns and then go back and pick hehe

Sounds like a plan! They better have 4G in the loo's for some prompt responses

I only joined here today, but already loving the help! Thanks

good luck for tonight James
