I think it's finding what is right for you. They are there if you need them is what SW tell people. Some days I don't need them. For me if I bought a bag of treat size choc bars with the intent of eating one a day with my daily syns I'd eat them all there and then because I'm just like that. I have to cut chocolate and alcohol and things out completely or I then become like an addict which is why I need to lose weight in the first place.im learning control now due to the fab slimming world diet but I'd rather do that without having all my 15 syns a day but that's just me personally. I'd rather have a couple for mayo, ketchup and an alepn light for example but on some days I may need a chocolate fix an d that's fine my syns are there for me. But personally there is no way I could use them for treats every single day. That's just me and the plan works for me so everyone should just do the same....find what works, stick to the plan and the recommended is 5-15 if you need the not YOU MUST HAVE 15 a day like some people say on this site
