Back on SW as of today!!

Hi, great news on your weight loss so far. I hope you don't mind but I just wanted to give you a tip if I may?

I notice in some of your food dairies that you're not eating a third of super free foods with each meal? Are you doing the Extra Easy plan? I was a group member until recently and it was drummed into me that on the EE plan, it's vital that you should be eating 1/3 super free as part of every meal to make it work. My consultant taught us to look at a plate as if its a clock; fill from 12-4 with super free foods and then the rest of your plate can be filled with carbs and meat etc. she also suggests eating your super free first so that it isn't left if you get too full to finish your meal.

There are occasions when you can't physically have super free with a meal I.e. beans on toast but its important to leave enough room afterwards to fit in a 'dessert' of super free foods.

I hope you don't think I'm speaking out of turn and I hope this helps.

Yeh i find my food diary really keeps me on track. Well iv lost 5lb in 5 weeks so far so its coming off just really slowly! But yeah i think once i find mu flow of things it'll start coming off more. I weigh in morning so fingers crossed!

Re: Back on SW as of today!!

Think I'm going to have to have a look through some recipes, I'm getting a bit bored with what I'm eating and craving naughty things which makes it hard.
Maybe its just a phase I'm going through but better be on the safe.side don't want to undo all what I have already done god its so hard not eating crap!!!!!!!!!!
