All the pictures look so yummy - well done you, you're flying this.

I've seen a few people mention SP days and I probably should know what they are, lol, but I don't - what are they?

Thanks so much, Bee xxx

Hi Bee,

Thanks ! I'll try and explain SP, you fill your plate with half speed (S) and half protein (P) and have 1 Healthy extra A (milk, cheese etc) and 2 healthy extra B (Bread, cereal etc) and your usual syns. I'm doing it this week as in the last 2 weeks I've only lost 1lb and have a holiday coming up in 2 weeks. It's not as easy as the EE plan, I miss yogurts and bananas, pasta, potatoes- loads of stuff!! I'm just really hoping to see a result on weigh in day..

Good luck with your journey xx

 

[BeeSneeze]

Thank you so much

Ooh that sounds a lot tougher - and yet your meals look absolutely delish. Wishing for a great result for you on weigh day - bet you'll be over the moon with it and dying to get going on your holiday xxx

[Slimming world newbeeeee]

Day 6 of SP

B) beans and marmite on toast HEXB with melon and peach for speed
L) tandoori chicken salad lettuce cucumber tomato red pepper lighter than light mayo 1 syn
D) made spag Bol for the family, I had the Sauce with extra carrot pepper and onion with roasted butternut squash and a bit of salad with 40g of reduced fat cheddar HEXA

Snacks) 2 x apple and sultana benefit bar from Aldi 2nd HEXB - they were cheap and quite nice, prefer them to alpen bars but not as good as hifi bars
Strawberries
Gonna have some dark chocolate in a bit 8 syns

This SP has definitely got easier as the weeks gone on, the proof will be in the pudding at weigh in tomorrow night !

 

[Slimming world newbeeeee]

So tonight's the night that I'll find out if SP has worked for me, i feel so nervous just like the first weigh in..

Today so far today:

B) scrambled egg, made with water, salt and black pepper on toast HEXB melon and raspberries
L) tandoori chicken salad lettuce cucumber pepper beetroot and carrot
D) plan to have some of last nights left over bolognese Sauce with butternut squash and salad with reduced fat cheese HEXA

Snacks) Melon and raspberries apple

Plan on having 2 x benefit bars for 2nd HEXB and syn wise - not sure yet.

Things I found hard doing SP are not having a sweet breakfast as I normally do, can't seem to find anything sweet that goes with protein (def miss yogurt)
Finding something to make dinners more filling, as the weeks gone on I've found butternut squash, carrots and beetroot helpful for this.
On the positive after a few days I was definitely less hungry and spent less money due to not buying muller lights at the coop, normally have 2-3 a day.

I am daring to dream but 2.5lb would get me my club 10 tonight and I'm a sucker for a slimming world sticker lol

 

[xxlauraxx15]

Fingers crossed for you tonight . Sp doesn't work for me . I tried it for two days before weighing a few months ago and had a really good loss. If I remeber right I think it was around 4lb and I thort this is great I'm going to do 2 normal days and 5 sp the following and I think I lost like 1/2 I was gutted. I think for what I was going without on it wasn't worth it for me.

I think as soon as you have carbs your body holds onto them if that makes sense and I just wasn't loosing. Seems to work for some people tho .

I used to always think il do a week but this is very hard. I used to think tho ye I would get a good loss but surely when I do a normal
Week it would be rubbish so would prob equal out to two normal weeks in weight loss terms.

How many days have you done ?

I really hope you get your club 10

Thanks ! This is day 7 today. It's been hard I hope it's worth it. Not been loosing much recently and am going on holiday in less than 2 weeks and there's not a chance I will be on plan for that. I will be drinking beer, cocktails and eating whatever rubbish I want lol
If SP works for me I am tempted to stay on it for this week as I know I'll gain loads on holiday. Have booked 2 weeks off of SW even tho only going for a week, thought it was a waste of money going the day after holiday just to told how much I've gained - not sure if that's the right thing to do or not ??

It's not for everyone and you're probably right about your body holding on to the carbs.. carbs are the best tho, it's what attracted me to SW in the first place

Will update later x

 

[xxlauraxx15]

I reckon you will see a good loss tonight then if done a full week. Your talkin 3/4 pound I reckon . Like you say if you see a great loss it prob is worth carrying on if you can till you go away. I'd prob do the same cause we all want get most we can off don't we in time for holidays. It may affect your gain on holiday tho if you have really cut down before you go. Holidays are there to enjoy tho not to worry about your weight.

I used to do shakes where you don't eat and I remeber at crimbo I came off and I gained 9lb over 7 days haha. That was loads of drink aswell tho so it may not be that bad. I'm a right pig eat loads lols .

Ye I prob would do same book 2 weeks like u day it's a waste ant it. Some people like to see what gain they have and sort it out. Have you got scales at home so u can check just for yourself. I reckon you will loose most of what you gain anyway the first week ya back.
