Not open for further replies.
Hi Kay :)
I am thinking about joining in on the last week of the salad challenge- I could do with a little boost!
My only confusion- sorry if this has already been asked/made clear elsewhere- but what happens with HExB's? I gather no carbs on the red days with meals and limited on green/ee, but does that mean you should use your hexb for something else e.g Olive Oil or cooked fruit/nuts and syn it if you want a slice of bread or something?
Also, what about parsnips/peas/beans?! Do they have to be small quantities too?
Other than the above I think I've got it!
Any help gratefully received :) xx

It's a real shame Sue won't have internet access next week as I know she'd do it. Hopefully some others will join us, maybe Von will decide she really wants some more yummy salads before the cooler weather sets in. x

Yay ! Rosie :p so glad you'd like to join. In answer to your questions hun, on the Green/EE days you can have both your HEXA's and HEXB's. Your are allowed 10 syns and must exercise for a minimum of 30 mins on the GREEN/EE days. You must drink 2 litres of water a day. Your salad must be carb free but your other meals can contain carbs in them.

On the Red days there is no exercise. You still only get 10 syns. You must drink 2 litres of water a day. For healthy extras you can have all of your HEXA's but from the B-list you can only have dried fruit, all the other HEXB's must be syned if you wish to take them. The reason for this is, because this is a low carb challenge.

Also parsnips/peas/beans are absolutely fine.

I hope this helps hun, if you have any more questions, feel free to ask me ;).

Kay xx

That's a great help thank you! I have never done a red day, or eaten much salad to be honest, but it will be good to mix things up!
Is there a definition of salad? Ie does it need leaves/set amount of anything? I'm going to scour this thread now for inspiration :) shopping on Sunday! X

Hey Linda, :) its great to have you back on the challenge with us . I am in the exact same boat as yourself. I don't know if you've had a chance to read my diary but I had my cousins over for a few weeks and hadn't been to group for over a month and have gained over a stone :(. I got my 5.5 stone award when I left, I am now back at 4 stone :rolleyes:. Anyway onwards and downwards for all of us :). I wasn't able to update this thread as much whilst having my guests over, but I will be on here everyday next week, back to my usual self :p. I'm really looking forward to doing the challenge with you all. Hope we all lose lots and lots of pounds between us :D xx

I'm really glad you've signed up! And that Kay has got her mojo back! Looking forward to starting Monday :)

Welcome to saladmania Rosiepops ;)
We're good friendly people, though some of us are slightly crazy and you'll do just fine. If Kay isn't around one of us will try and answer questions and she'll just give is a flying bunny kick if we lead you astray :)

Thx Kay - reckon the only positive thing about putting on weight is that when we go on a challenge (and stick to the rules of course!) we're bound to lose lots of weight - so looking forward to getting down to biz with u!!
