No Hun, you can have your syns as normal but all you have to do on SE is count the highest syn value when calculating.
So if you have a chocolate bar the syns will be the same on all plans however say you had a sausage and it was like 5 syns on green but only 2 syns on red, then you have to count the highest syns.
So when I do SE I stick to syns that have the same value on all plans.
i hope this makes sense xxx

I do the same with the syns it makes it simpler, the couple of times I've used syns for other things I've managed to forget to use the higher rate and had to switch to an EE day, luckily I tend to save my 2nd hex until later in the day....
I love being able to have peas and sweetcorn on SE for a change

This is my only query (hopefully)
I too saw the fruit on day 1 like Donna and thought ok all sf which I sometimes do. But as jaylou states ok it is there but it is the only meal all sf.
Can I just clarify then that the plan really is:
3 meals a day, each one 1/3 free and 2/3 sf.
1 or 2 hea ( which is never understood why you could choose to have more.)
2 heb
Syns 5-15
Snacks preferably sf but I could have eggs/mullers and I can also snack on my he and syns.
Have I got it?
Thanks!

You've got it spot on Hun, when I do SE I just try to have as much superfree and variety of it as possible and then just have a really small amount of free food on my plate.
I hope you are enjoying the plan xxx
Can I ask if people are really bloated and uncomfortable on se? I have just completed day 4 and sorry I'm so bloated and windy also really tired. I find I get hungry really quickly after meals, I gained last week so really wanted a boost so thought I would give se a try. Not sure I will make a full week of it, might try and get through tomorrow and do a red day before weigh to reduce bloating, I also drink a lot of water which I would have hoped would flush out any bloating.
Any responses would be great, thanks

Hey! I am on day 3 and I feel a little uncomfortable and bloated. I have found I am less hungry and not eat my HEX today. I will make a conscious effort to eat these tomorrow. X

I think you could be feeling that way because of all the super free and also lots of water can bloat you.
I find peppermint tea really helps me feel less bloated and sluggish so it might be with giving it a try Hun xxx

Success express sounds like a good so I'm going to give it a go today. I've got my WI on Thursday evening, and I've also got the lady curse from hell so I need all the help I can get!! I'm planning on having porridge with chopped banana and grated apple for breakfast, veggie and bean soup with ryvita and kidney bean pate for lunch and veggie curry with rice and toasted cashew nuts for dinner. I've got fruit and yogurts incase I get hungry inbetween. Bring it on! Thanks for all the info x

No they're not superfree I just meant I like being able to have a small serving as part of my free foods, I normally do Red and you have to syn them if you want them.... I like the flexibility of having red and green even if it is a smaller portion than you can have on the other plans

Hot water and lemon is good for being bloated too, it's my standard "cure all" for everything
