I have just started cc and I am not going to count the calories in any veg. It will just make me not eat any! There is so little in them anyway it probably wont make a difference if you count them or not. I have counted cals for fruit though. Just had 2 plums for 39cals, that hardly seems...

Hi, just been having a wee nosey at your diary and have some festival tips for you! If you don't have wellies buy them. Even if its sunny. Take immodium. DO NOT forget toilet roll and baby wipes. Sleeping tablets would help if you do plan to sleep. The tesco toilet tip is a good one...

lol the first thing I checked when starting ww the last time was the points in a half bottle of vodka! I have seen the ww wine in Asda, not sure of the points though. Wonder if its nice?

Hi all! Have decided to come back to WW after a wee try at SW. It just didn't work for me at all. I'm not going to lie, I did cheat sometimes but there was weeks when I stuck to it 100% and lost nothing. I have done WW before and it did work (even when I was cheating!) I will be doing it...

Thanks Meli. I have had a sorta bad week! Went over syns again yesterday! I blame lurpak lighter! I have brought my own bread into work with me today so I am not tempted by the white bread! Think I will do this from now on as a yoghurt just doesn't fill me then I go and make toast! Friday...

No I didnt add any veg at all! Oops! Do you have to do this for EE to work? I will add onions and mushrooms next time!

Ok, I will weigh myself. I am just doing it at home. Its hard to not take a sneaky peek everyday! I have stuck to it 100% so even if I have a slight gain I am not going to worry myself to much. Thanks!

I think I am going to skip my first weigh in, I dont want to get depressed if I havent lost anything. Its just bad timing that I decided to start SW this week lol!

It is my first week doing SW and it is also my * week. Do you think I should weigh in on Monday morning or just forget about it this week? I really dont feel like I have lost anything yet and usually when I am on a diet I can notice a difference after a few days (when I was on WW) :confused:

Same here! The people in work must think I have some sort of infection haha! I am constantly at the toilet! I try and drink loads of water during the day but I dont really drink much after 6ish because I hate getting up in the middle of the night!

I am going to do mostly green days but will try and have a few red days aswell. Also on my green days I am going to try and not eat loads of pasta. I will maybe have eggs or a baked potato instead. I dont understand how eating that many carbs can make you loose weight!!!

It might be the fibre. I had this problem for years and the doctor has done all sorts of tests on me. I had to keep a food diary for a few months along with a 'toilet' dairy haha! Anyways the doc said that if I eat too much fibre it blocks me up! weird because most people are the opposite...

Hmmm diet coke chicken was lovely and the syn free chips were better than normal chips!!!

Another diet coke chicken question How much coke do you use for this? I was thinking of making it with around 6 tablespoons of ketchup. Or can this be made with canned tomatoes? Would I use the full can?

Do you do green days everyday then? I was going to do this as I am not a big meat eater but I wasnt sure if this was allowed?

Boring old beans & toast for lunch and I am trying diet coke chicken for the first time for my dinner!

I just had my very first low fat chicken & herb for lunch today and I liked them. They are not as good as my usual full fat mild curry though!

Hey! I thought i'd do a wee food diary just to help keep myself on track and so you guys can tell me if I am doing anything wrong! I am following the diet myself from home and I will be having mostly green days. Monday 15th Feb - my first day of SW! Breakfast: Mullerlight Snack: 3 mini...

I got mine off ebay. Paid £21 for it but it was totally worth it! I couldnt make it to a class. It has the syns for EVERYTHING! I would say it is a must for this diet!

Can I use lean beef mince as my HexB on a green day? Is it free on a red day? Or do I have to syn it both days?

That is so crap! I cant eat alot of fibre! I am really struggling with my HexBs!!!

I really cant eat brown or wholemeal bread! Can I eat white instead as my HexB or would I have to syn this?

Are uncle bens rices free on green days?

I am starting on Monday and wrote out my menu for next week. I am doing 5 green days and 2 original. I had everything planned and thought it was loads of food and then I realised I hadnt used any syns at all! Oops! So I then had to go back and add MORE food! It is sooo much more than I would...

Ah it doesnt actually say Bachelors, sorry girls, I am just getting myself confused trying to figure this diet out! Thanks for the list of free ones, I will need to stock up!

I read on here that some pasta n sauces were free but according to the food optimising book my friend has they are 2.5 syns...which is right? Is my friends book old?

Yeah, Circes when I got home from work yesterday the book had arrived but I have obviosuly bought the wrong one because it is just a recipie book. Will need to go to a meeting I think.

No it is a white cover and says 'food optimising' in orange. I got it from ebay. Is this the wrong one? It has loads of recipies and menu plans but I cant see anything about the healthy extras.

What are healthy extras? There is no mention of them in the food optimising book! Is there a list of them somewhere on here? Thanks x

Hello! I am new aswell! What books do you have? I only have the food optimising book so far, what others would you suggest I get? Thanks x

Oh dear! That really doesnt seem worth it! Will try and figure out how to make my own pasta sauce!

I fancy making some soup. Are red lentils free on original and green days? thanks x

Does anyone know the syn value for the tomato & chilli sauce, full jar? Thanks x

Hiya, I have just ordered the Food Optimising book from Play and it should arrive tomorrow. I will be following the plan myself from home. Can anyone recommend any other books I should get? Is there a book telling the syn values for eating out or for branded foods? Thanks!
