Hello! Slimming World & veggie/vegan?

[VeganSW]

Hi

I am new on here but not new to SW. I decided try and go vegan a few weeks ago. So far it's been a mix of vegan + vegetarian removing the dairy content completely is really hard. Slimming World doesn't really - as far as I know - cater all that well for vegans. I am feeling my way through each recipe and modifying as I can. Previously found their vegetarian meals a bit bland. I like my spices and strong tastes. So I've had to get much more acquainted with my herb/spice rack since removing meat!

Has anyone else done this? Right now I'm not at group but I've done it long enough to know how a SW diet should work. I probably need to count my syns better but it's a faff. Right now am just struggling with finding the right meals to make and learning new recipes

Looking forward to reading your stories and trying out new recipes!

Hi Vegan SW. I'm veggie who eats a lot of vegan food. I tried eating vegan in my first week on SW but really struggled as so much has a syn value (don't get me started on soy yoghurts) so went back to eating dairy with a view to cutting it out when I get closer to target. Hope you're doing better than me.

Hi, I just wanted to say hi! I am also a vegetarian, part time Vegan :/ and I have a few recipe ideas here www.notrabbitfood.com which are all vegetarian, and SW friendly. I struggled so much with finding things to use my A's on, and to find food that curbed my cravings for savoury, rather than sweet. I started this blog to help out my fellow vegetarians on Slimming World- really hope it helps x

Hey! I've been vegan almost 2 years now, from full meat eater, and on SW for about 6 months properly, yes a lot of meat replacements, veggie burgers etc have syn values, but its all because they're pre-made, a lot of the meat versions would have syns too. Its annoying that the yogurts etc have syns, but they are really low. and all speed food is vegan, and 90% of free food is vegan, so there's lots to be eating.
My spice rack increased tremendously when i went vegan, but i ate a lot of processed already spiced foods before.
I find the best way of me staying on plan and under syns, is to make a huge pot of food on a weekend, split it into portions and freeze it. Easy free food on hand!
