... I've only dieter once. My stats are below. I had a takeaway and God, so much else straight after WI every week. I lost consistently and found my twilight zone / no counting treat nights where what kept me on track.
This said, now I need to relose the weight again following pregnancy and a v rough year, it's not something I feel I can do now. It would be too difficult to reign it back the rest of the week.

I don't treat myself after WI because I don't like to think that I'm restricting myself from anything. I like to treat myself every day with my syns. If I was to treat myself only once a week I'd probably end up giving up on day 2. Fakeaways are great! However, I wouldn't 'treat' myself to one as I know I can have this as a meal any time I want. The main reason SW works for me is because I don't feel like I'm dieting. Plus rewarding yourself for loosing weight with a 'treat' doesn't really make sense to me.

When I did sw last year I always had a treat wi day - whatever I wanted takeaway wise!
Hence to say I'm starting again - and this week after an amZing first week of -5.5 I decided actually it was more important to have a good week. I wi on sat and last week we went out for dinner on the Friday night which was lovely.
I think the key is to plan meals you look forward too.
A flexible day is great. But a regular treat night can be detrimental mentally I think. But everyone's different find what works for you xx

I don't have a treat night on WI. I have done previously but just don't feel I need it and don't want to make it harder than it needs to be. Bottom line is this doesn't feel like I am depriving myself so I don't feel the need for the treat.

I don't tend to have a treat night as I think it sets me up for a bad week. I weigh in on Monday's so it is the start of the week for me. I did have a slab of cheesecake today, which worked out at 14 syns so I used that as my "treat" even though I am not going over syns.

Just realised I fibbed.....when I have a good weigh in I buy a new recipe book as a reward. But I don't have a food treat

So that wasn't really a fib then ha ha as we were confessing to our little indulgences of the food variety
maybe buying a treat of another type is a much better reward tho
