I've got nearly all the Davina dvds and they're all pretty good. I think the "power of three" and the "high energy five" ones are the best. They all involve jumping around but you can do the low impact and easier versions buy following one of her personal trainers, usually the female one.

How many is it for HEA pleaese? Pretty sure its three and if I only have 1 does that mean I have to syn it?

Big Mac is 25 syns on red and green 4 chicken nuggets are 6 on red, 9 on green and a strawberry medium milkshake is 19 and a half syns on each day!!!!

Thanks, having a caribbean take away tonight and having goat with a side dish of rice and peas, depending on portion sizes will determine what colour day to do, or might do extra easy, I love the fact that you can choose from so many options with this way of eating!

That was my line of thinking too!

Strange question but does anyone know if goat is free on a red day please?? :eatdrink051:

Checked mysupermarket.com out for the first time today, how brilliant is this site?!?! Not only have I saved money but calories too. Loving it! :D:D:D

sometimes water just isnt enough! I've just had an attack of the munchies so had some baked beans on toast but added some curry powder to the beans, yummy and comforting!

Finally after about a month of half heartedly following SW I have got myself back on track. I weigh myself now each monday after deciding that class really wasnt for me and I only went to get weighed so for me, a bit of a waste of money. After STS for 3 weeks I have lost 2 lbs and am so...

Yes I use it loads in sauces to make them creamy, its also lush spread on crisp rolls! although thats your two HEBs for the day in one go!

Can shredded wheat be used a HE at all please?:p

can I join too please?? Really need the motivation!

Sticking to plan well makes me happy too! Days like this, I can see me losing the weight and keeping it off for good!

Reasons I'm so happy today: * its hot and sunny * Philadelphia light with garlic and herbs is now a HEB choice on green and EE * found that my favourite jam is only 1 syn for 2 teaspoons!!! Its a sad life, but its made me happy! :):):):):)

Right, understand it a bit more now. So..........white fish and lots of veg for me tonight!

Hi Thanks for the replies. I alread mix my days up, having a green one then a red or a few days of one then the other. I will try the superfoods for a whole meal and see how I get on. Could someone please explain EE for me as I'm a bit confused with it! Do I just get 1HEA and 1HEB? thanks. x

Hello, I'm trying to lose the last stone and its proving difficult, I'm sticking to the basics and each week I lose a pound then gain a pound the following week or STS. Do I just keep on with it and it will shift eventually? Have started with the old exercise too to help. :sigh:

Can anyone help please for ideas with mince, have done the usual cottage pie, burgers, chilli etc and lacking inspiration! Having a red day and just need to eat eat eat!:p

thanks! its odd, because after eating basically lots of stuff I shouldnt I'm now yearning for all healthy food!

Well after three weeks of not really following SW that closely I'm now back on track and the good news is, only put 2 lb on so all is good!

Well after gaining 3 lbs last week, I have lost them this week! Am very pleased. So, would like to lose 2 lbs this week then I'm back in the 10 stones bracket which would be an amazing feeling! Well done everyone with their results, even those who have gained, it can be lost, so just hang on...

thanks for the replies. Gonna be looking for it tomorrow at class!:)

Where do I buy scan bran from and what is it exactly please? I've seen it used in cakes but no idea what is is, packaging etc. :confused:

I've just had bacon, mushrooms, scrambled egg and a slice of bread. Yummy! Having a huge turkey salad for my tea, and fresh fruit with yoghurt for afters. As a snack later I'm having krisprolls with philadelphia on.

I have a quick question. I normally always use my HE, but sometimes if I'm eating a lot of salad and fruit, I find I'm too full to want to eat the HE especially the Bs. Does it matter a great deal if its missed out sometimes? Surely its good to be full on the free foods? x:ox

After being successful on losing weight with SW, I suddenly went off track and started eating what I liked again. Last night I finally realised that this is a way of eating for life and not just a fad diet. I also tried on some summer shorts that were way too small for me last year, they now...

Omg i've read all the thread of what people are eating and now so hungry! Waiting for SW chips to be ready with beans and a HEB of gammon and an egg. 10 mins to go.............:D

Well done to those who didnt eat much or no chocolate at all, i cannot hold my head up and say I too am one of those people. Instead, this weekend I have eaten my body weight in chocolate, (drunk wine to the same level) and finished off with a chunk of my birthday cake! I'm not gonna lose...

Thats a good idea although I am trying to save my pennies as best as I can. Will have a hunt round the shops next week I think.

I'm going out tonight for the first time in ages as its my birthday at the weekend. I'm having the usual dilemma of deciding what to wear. At the minute I'm stuck in the middle of having lost some weight to be noticeable but not quite enough so that I can fit into all my old party stuff! Its...

Only managed 1/2 a pound this week! Not great but in the right direction. Got to get myself back on track for this week and sort myself out. Well done everyone with their losses. x

Right, thank you everyone! Have got over myself and stopped worrying! On a good note I've had a fairly low syn week. All will be fine!

Hi I was doing so well this week, WI is on Monday but tonight after being good throughout a meal that had been cooked for me, I had a caramel slice and a profiterole and a slab of cheese. Hopefully if i'm very good tomorrow it wont show up on the scales on monday or am I just kidding myself? I...

Just made tuna quiche from the 100 original recipes book, very tasty and its made without the cottage cheese which I cant stand! 4 eggs 2 cans tuna in brine drained 1 onion chopped 2 slices bacon chopped handful mushrooms chopped 1 tomato sliced salt and pepper / mixed herbs Dry fry the...

I have just made the tuna quiche from the 100 original recipes book and it was beautiful! The OH loved it too. Served it with homemade tzatziki dip which is free on grren and original! Eating it with everything at the moment so stink of garlic! Trying very hard this week as want to be in the...

Hello! Stayed the same tonight at WI, usually do it on a monday but had to go to a different group this week and the people were very different. Prefer my usual group for sure. Are there other people who sometimes attend a different class and if so how do you find it? Pleased I stayed the same...

I've just made some beef burgers using extra lean beef, onion, garlic, mushroom and egg to hold them together. I havent used any oil to cook them as done them in the oven, does this mean that they are free? I cant decide as it says different things in my book. :confused:

Thanks. Going to be more positive today! :D

I started off really well today but after a really rubbish day at work I've scoffed a huge tube of mini eggs and drunk half a bottle of wine. Have I blown things or will I be ok just starting again tomorrow and putting tonight behind me? :o

ooh will check them out tonight! Thanks.

Hello, quick question, apart from Muller light yoghurts which are free (apart from some of the new ones) what other yoghurts are free to eat that do not contain aspartame? My mum has joined SW and cant have aspartame as it triggers her migraines. Can anyone help...

A lb is a lb, it all adds up!

Thanks everyone! My mum was so impressed with what I've told her about SW she's joining a group tomorrow! xx

Hi I'm new to this forum, have been watching from afar and decided to join tonight. Have only just recently joined SW but I must say that its so easy to follow and I havent got stuck yet! So nice to read all the posts and everyone is so motivating, thanks! Managed to lose 3.5 pounds tonight...
