    SYN FREE CHIPS

    The McCain value will be for a Green or EE day, in which case the potatoes would be free. It's only on a Red day that you need to syn potatoes and the McCains would have a higher syn value. Homemade chips on a green day are free (assuming you use no oil or use it as a HexB!)

    Rice Syns, please!

    Thanks . . . but how come it has the same value on all plans when it has a green free food allowance of risotto rice?

    Rice Syns, please!

    Thanks. Didn't think the 20 cals = 1 syn thing worked if there was a free food allowance? It would make the savoury rice 7.7 per 100g of prepared product, surely? I don't do guesswork - been caught out in the past! Values for it are as follows: Per 100g, 130kcal, 1.9g protein, 28.2g carb...

    Super Speed Soup

    It's mixed beans in a can! It's usually with the pulses and soups. Here's the Sainsbugs one to give you an idea: Sainsbury's online groceries or Asda: Cookies Detecting! Hope that helps!

    Does anyone still just do red n green days?

    I do mostly green days with Mix To Match and EE days inbetween when I need to be a bit more flexible. Whatever suits you best! If you are more comfortable with red and green, stick with it. It's been used for years and thousands of people will have lost with it. I find EE is so easy to over...

    angel delight

    I think the WW ones are lovely. Obviously not as sweet as proper angel delight, but you can add your own sweetener etc. if you prefer. I'd seen on another thread on here about it being powdery, but if it's whisked properly it's absolutely fine. Makes a change to yogurt! It's usually with the...

    Eat Smart Korma

    It was quite nice, maybe just needed a small amount of extra curry powder to taste, but it is supposed to be a mild curry after all!

    Doing it from home ??!!??

    I've gone it alone from Day 1! The thought of going to a slimming club/class really wasn't up my street. Bought my books off eBay and got cracking. If you are positive, determined and have support around you, there is no reason why you can't do it on your own. It's worked perfectly for me and I...

    Extra Easy stupid question???

    Why not stay as a green day and use r 113g of tinned tuna or 71g of cooked chicken as your 2nd HeB and you can then have 320ml of skimmed milk AND 42g of low fat cheddar?

    Extra Easy 1/3 superfree with curry?? HELP!!

    Whe I make curry (either from scratch or from a jar) I always try to bulk it up to make enough to be able to freeze a portion or two. I always boil up a pan of water with potatoes, carrot, turnip, parsnip - any veggies really, cook them for 10 minutes or so, drain (but not completely!), blitz up...

    What should I be aiming for

    I'm 5' 4" and my doctor has said ideally I should be somewhere between 9st 7lb and 10 st 7lb - I can't ever imaging being that thin! When I started out, I wasn't really thinking about weight, I was looking more about dress size and appearance. Even since, I've never really thought about a...

    Morrisons Eat Smart Extra Light Soft Cheese? 1.5 syns per 28g. It's marked in my food directory as a HE-A but it's not in my Food Optimising book to give you the exact amount (it's quite old now!). I'm sure someone else will help out.
