    Extra Easy Help!!!

    Don't do it!!!!! Biscuits are definitely my trigger food, it's game over once I start! Think about how you'll feel after you've had them and not how you'll feel while you're eating them.
  143. Grizzly_man

    Extra Easy Could cry :-(

    May sound a little odd but have you tried a tablespoon of Golden Syrup or even 2? It's 2 syns per tablespoon and it's a massive sweet hit, it completely works for me when all I can think about is doing a hit and run on Thorntons! I would compare it to smoking actually in that the cravings fade...
  144. Grizzly_man

    Which do you do....

    I'm afraid your consultant is wrong, you stick to 1 plan per day, not per week. I do mainly EE for convenience feeding the family but get better losses when I do mostly red, saying that I've never tried a full green week.

  171. Grizzly_man

    food shopping

    Really top tip! Another one I would say plan at least 5 meals for the week and then do your shopping online, saves you grabbing stuff you don't need, you can normally find a voucher for free delivery or money off too if you have a look around.
  172. Grizzly_man

    Feel really low

    Try not to worry too much, someone said to me the other day that a good week is never wasted so even if you don't lose as much as you were expecting, carry on the same and you will see it next week, the body is a funny thing sometimes.
  173. Grizzly_man

    Whats for breakfast?

    Late breakfast, giant mushrooms, oven baked then add some salt and Worcester sauce, crack an egg in the middle then back in the oven for 5 mins, bit more Worcester on top, really nice!
  174. Grizzly_man

    Sausages???

    I like the Weight Watchers ones, they are a little smaller than some of the others but my favourite for flavour, they are 0.5 syns each :)
  175. Grizzly_man

  178. Grizzly_man

    Whats for tea tonight?

    Spaghetti Oceana as per the Frankie and Bennys light dish, should be served with a rocket and red onion salad, topped with grated Parmesan but I didn't have any of those! Tastes amazing, definite new favourite.

    The packs of scanbran I buy have10 in them, you can use 5 as a HEb, there are loads of scanbran cake recipes on here, it's the only way I can stomach them but I know some people just eat them as crackerbread. All bran or bran flakes are a good alternative.

Also if I'm doing a red or green day I normally find I have an A and B left at night for cheese...

    Extra Easy Free food vs syn free food

    If it's syn free it's free and treat it as such, you don't need to syn it, this is just a discussion on how it's better to go with the superfree then free foods listed in your book first before you reach for the syn free foods, not that you can't, just that's its better to do the others first...
