After upping my S/SS fruits last week and having a 3.5 lb loss I decided speed foods are the way forward so I'm making a concious effort to have as many as I can from now on.

Been reading some of the posts on here and its surprising what you learn - I never realised that chicken and tuna are both speed foods!! Time to get the books out again. lol.

Today I've had:

melon
raspberries
kiwi
mushrooms
onions
tinned toms
peppers
chicken
punnet of cherries

also had a dragon fruit which isn't on the list but I'm assuming (hoping) its at least a speed food, if not superspeed.

how do you think this is working , have you lost more on this ?

 

[Lily42uk]

I have only been doing it for just over a week and I wi again tomorrow, last week I gained 1/2lb , but it was my birthday and I really didn't count the syns as such, although I was aware of what went into my mouth. In all honesty I would say it works, as I have put on up to 3lbs after a buffet style celebration, but we'll get a clearer picture over the next few weeks. Plus as I have been averaging 1lb a week for the last 2 months, if that ups even to 2lb a week I would be ecstatic....will let you know xx

Sweetcorn is just a free food as you have above Butt3rb34n. Baby sweetcorn is a Speed food, but Garlic & pomegranate aren't I'm afraid they are free only

 

[Butt3rb34n]

Oh no thought pomegranate was cos its just water with a crunch lol! Thanks will have to change in my food diary x

 

[auntynet]

TwinkleToes - I'm amazed you think your daily lists are short!!!!!! Last one I counted 14 or 15 speed foods in one day - wonder how many you'd eat to compile a long list? lol,

I didn't check in yesterday so here's monday's list

Strawberries
Melon
Raspberries
Kiwi
dragonfruit (I think - not in the book cos its a tropical fruit)
Apple
Plums
Swede
Carrots
Broccoli
Petit pois
Quorn
Ryvitas

And this is today's list

Strawberries
melon
apple
orange
dragonfruit
baked beans
mushy peas
stewed apricots

Now that's what I'd call a shortlist - although I have eaten several portions of most of the fruit items throughout the day. lol

Why do most people assume that blueberries are SS cos according to the book they're not. Whenever we mention SS in group someone always says they've had blueberries but they're not even a speedfood, nevermind SS.

 

[TwinkleToes2day]

A decent list today
I think because blueberries are known to be so beneficial people assume they are at the very least a speed food - wish they were

*Free but not Speed:
*sweetcorn

Apples
Strawberries
Blackberries
Melon
Pineapple
Strawberries
Kiwi
Half a plum - it was awful
peppers
cabbage
red cabbage
cucumber
lettuce
beetroot
onions
mushrooms
parsnips
