Yes it is...you just need to stick to the speed fruit, i.e. Not bananas, grapes, blueberries, etc...there is a huge list in your sw book...how about salads? I wasn't a huge veg person either but i learnt to like them! I have a lot of soup, especially for lunches...i batch cook them and then freeze portion wise! I make tomato soup (a bit of potato makes it really creamy) broccoli soup, butternut squash and lentil&bacon they easily cover 1/3 to 1/2 speed in a bowl
Sw is very much trial and error, ask my hubby, lol he is a really fussy eater but has to put up with sw food now even though he hasn't got a spare ounce if weight on him, lol
I cook a lot and keep trying new things...all the meals that get the seal of approval i write in a special recipe book but there have been some real shockers that will never make it back into my kitchen, lol

Apple before a meal is a really good idea!!! Never thought of that...probably as most the fruit we eat in our house is either grapes, bananas or oranges!

Mick I know exactly what you mean, I think I went wrong before as I'm a total chocoholic and used syns on small bars such as fredo which just made me want more.....this time I've been having the 2 Alpen light/hifi bars as my hexb but sometimes I'll have a third for 3 syns...that way I feel like I've had an extra treat but without using too many syns or tempting myself with cadburys also like you I have small extras on Mayo etc and want to be able to do this knowing it's not taking me to too many syns but not really having to keep counting so it helps me to keep 'treat' syns such as chocolate as low as possible. I also eat extra strong mints (helped me stop smoking) which are 1/2 syn so really good I can have a couple each day but again don't feel like I'm tempted to go mad. Hope this helps

If you find you want something sweet ive just seen on another thread and reminded me I used to have snack a jacks the caramel ones they are good as low syn but taste quite sweet for me if I can have something sweet but not something I'd of had before it helps if that makes sense
