thank u so much for this thread, First post was brilliant read.

Thanks for this post! Its all clear in my head now!! x

I have just started sw yet again and this was just what i needed to hear, thanks so much xx

really good advice if i get side tracked i will have to read through your advice thanx x x

can someone explain the green plan & red plan ...

I only understand extra easy...?

If you read the OP it should explain it all but basically on green
meat and fish are not free and need to be synned or HEBs. On red it is the carbs that are not free and have to be synned or some of them can be used as a HEB

The bonus is that you get two HEa and two HEb and on green there is a wider range of HEbs than on EE

thanks for that

i read your thread about two months ago and you explained everything so clearly. i plan to lose seven stone and thanks to how you explained what it means ive lost 30 pounds so far so just wanted to say a big thank you.

I think I get it much more after reading this than I did from the books from class. Cheers!

Thanks to everyone's kind comments. Just wanted to remind everyone don't take what I say as gold, I'm just a SW'er like everyone else and not an expert!

hi!

are there any printables of the list of superfree choices on here - thinking i could stick them on my cupboards for quick reference - or shall o photocopy the book??

that way i can see what i need to fill my 1/3 of plate with ( is its superfree or superspeed? ahhhhhhh why so similiar!!!)

Unfortunately we cannot publish lists of foods on this site, so I would suggest photocopying pages 11 & 12 (from the new book).

Superfree are just fruit and vegetables that are free on RED + GREEN. Things like sweetcorn and peas are only free on Green, so you can have them on EE, but they don't make up 1/3 plate superfree.

Super speed foods are very filling but very low in calories so may speed up your weight loss.

Hia, thanks for this post its brilliant- I have been doing it a week and have gained 1lb, i am extremely dissapointed! I am doing the EE plan and i love it, i am having large portions of pasta etc but not stuffing until i feel sick, just pleasantly full. My club leader says i may be having too many bananas- i was having about 4 a day so have cut that down to 1. when you say it does not work for everyone, do you mean for some people it actually wont work at all and they wont be able to ever lose weight on SW?
Thanks 4 ur help and advice xxx
