Thank you both I saw on the veggie thread that Barbette had said syn values had changed but didn't specify what.

I'm at target but I need something to get me back on the straight as I've indulged a bit too much so that plan looks ideal for a quick start.

I don't eat meat or most fish and tend to follow mainly green so looking at that I'm sure I can make it work with the protein I do eat like eggs and beans and lentils

 

[Nettee]

On an sp day then - the hexbs are the ee list? No measured new or jacket potatoes?

 

[Liverbird52]

Potatoes are free food not an s food (speed) not on he b list that I can see x

 

[Possumpaws]

hE list are the same for both plans

 

[Nettee]

And no extra cheese :-( (best thing about red days!)

 

[Nettee]

Thanks for replying - that's a shame - I'm sure they are better for you than whole meal bread. Are kidney beans a P?

 

[Liverbird52]

Yes

 

[Nettee]

Great - that will help with my new 'SP day Tuesdays'

 

[Nettee]

What are the proportions of s to p on sp days?

 

[lardylady]

No you don't need to stay, but I did so I could hear about the new plan.

Thanks

Finding the new diary on Sw online very difficult to use, in terms of no different sections for different foods!

So you can have WM bread for a HEB on SP but not potatoes? I guess my usual dinner of salmon and jacket pot will be replaced with pulses of some kind and salad. Sounds very low carb.

 

[luisa71]

Will there be a sticky for the new plan?

 

[PatchworkPuss]

Having receive my pack yesterday I think vegetarians need not worry. On the SP plan, although it is similar to red, you can also have peas, beans and lentils. Some fruits are not on it ( eg bananas, grapes, cherries and some others). 1 HEA and 2 HEB's - same list as normal EE. It suggests initially doing this plan for a week and then continue maybe adding some EE days too.

Both are lesser plans the green so offer less flexibility and choice for vegetarians I'm afraid

I think it sounds like a better plan.
Does anyone know if it's okay to do 3 EE days and 4 EE SP days. Or any variation?
I think I'd like that option.

I think it sounds like a better plan. Does anyone know if it's okay to do sat 3 EE days and 4 EE SP days. I think I'd like that option.

I agree. I think it's great that they're focusing on protein as a whole group for everyone which includes plenty of meat free options such as pulses and lentils. It sounds like a much more balanced plan.

Having rice, potatoes and pasta will never give you all the nutrients that you need for a healthy body. Personally I've never understood why not eating meat gives you an extra bread option? Nuts, cheese and oil I understand, but not the processed extra carbs such as bread and cereals...

Hi slim
You used to be able to swap and change plans for example say do 3 days of red then 2 of green then rest of week EE. I think it should be fine but just check with yr consultant to be 100%

 

[janetelizabeth]

I'm assuming that target members will still be encouraged to have more hex's per day.
As a green plan user I've always been used to having 2 of each and adding another one of each some days.
I don't get my new pack until Tuesday morning.

 

[jogirl]

I don't get my new pack till tomorrow, but having read everything that has been posted here, I think I'm just going to carry on doing Green as normal. I like my two Hex A's and two Hex B's! Like Janet, now I'm at target I sometimes add extra Hexes anyway.
