Ok Food stuff for today is planned as:

Breakfast: Banana and SW mousse (1/2 syn)

Snack: 3 babybel light (A)

Lunch: Either noodles or mushroom soup not decided yet

Tea: Homemade quorn chilli with veggies

mmmmmmm think ive made enough quorn chilli to take some to mums for lunch thursday. Hoping to have jacket potato for tea but I have a meal coming up on Wednesday that i CANT get out of (mainly cos i organised it for my team and picked my food before I started on SW again) I have ordered french onion soup to start and chicken and veg for main - ordered a starter instead of a pudding so I suppose thats not too bad. Have to be good the rest of the week! x

Best thing I ever started doing was make a menu every week so I know where I'm up to with my food. Considering you chose your food BEFORE starting SW anyone think you where already on the plan . Keep going chuck!!! We're gonna get soooo skinny we'll have get bolts fitted in our necks stop us slipping down grids xx

Went to Booths at lunch...... for Alpen light bars HEXB's and came out with a pack of light one and a pack of normal (by mistake) so im peeved now! So theyre being squirrelled away in my drawer for now and also came out with some choc from the grownupchocolate company! darn it! Ive not touched it, its in my drawer, no doubt I will forget about it for a few days...shops are lethal!!!!! x

Hiya,

you look like you are doing very well. Oh, the dreaded meals out. Yet being on a SW plan shouldn't mean not doing these sorts of social activities and you have been losing and having fun too. sorry no idea about food on a red day, talk about plant foods and I'm your woman But as a general rule, save your syns and HEXs for the evening and live on free and super free during the day. Which is teaching my granny to suck eggs as I know you do this anyway. Have a good time with the team.

Chopped mackerel, prawns, tuna mixed with frontage frais smoked paprika and a squirt of ketchup and some salt and pepper wrapped in Chinese leaf lettuce leaves or in a salad with some olives, pickles and cubes of cheese (hexA) and chopped up new potatoes (hexB) and chopped boiled egg. Or similar but with grilled bacon and pieces of chicken etc. I've had one red day in the 5 weeks I've been doing SW and that nearly knocked me sick :O so I'm not the best for ideas xxx

Didn't know that was still part of the SW plan - that not like EE and success express together or is it the food optimising? I've searched for it on the website on SW members online and it comes up with nothing. Don't think they do it anymore love xx

Wouldn't a EE day be easier? Or just food optimise xx

Oooooh what's that? X

Actually what you're doing is food optimising - I meant flexi-synning. Basically they say that if you've got an evening out planned give yourself a set amount of syns. So if you think 30 syns will cover your evening, food and drink wise then thats what you have but make sure you count every syn and make informed choices. Then the next day just give yourself 5-10 syns every day until weigh in. I don't know how or if it works because I've never tried it, but I think the idea is to stay in control and be mindful of what you're doing but at the same time enjoy it without the guilt or feeling like you've crashed and burned. xx
