I normally give the white sauce a miss to be honest, feel it doesnt add that much to the meal and can be quite high syns to make a "proper" one

thanks!!

Please can you lovely ladies share ALL your BNS recipes, from chips to curry and anything in between!!

Silly question but how do you mash it?? lol just like you would potatoes: boil and then mash?? I had a similar burger with a babybel in the middle the other day, very yummy!

OK so these arent a HEB?

Great idea! Never thought of that!!

Wow that many! Lots of HEs have fallen off my radar since the EE plan came in!

Agreed! do you have a recipe?

Oh ok, will have to give that a bash! Do you syn or use a HE?

I dont like fish, wish i did sometimes! lol Please feel free to go on, will do me a favour :p How do you make your beef casserole? With a packet mix?

so you have ryvita instead of pasta??

thank you, will get them both on my weekly plan!!

Hi :wave_cry: I've been off this site (and SW) for a while now but back to basics after a shock when I climbed back on the scales last week! I want to try red days but I always end up hungry as I normally bulk my meals up with potatoes and pasta on green but obviously can't do the same on...

6th 100% day this week! whoop whoop!

OK so summer holidays start on Friday! What do you do when you are out and about? I dont want to spent 6 weeks in the house but I dont want to ruin my diet daily by eating out (thinking theme parks, days at the beach). Some days I can take a picnic but if ive nipped into town and the...

well done! I'd love to be able to run again, I used to be a great runner!!

what an awful situation! Have you tried counselling together? (or yourself for your depression?) good luck with your weight loss journey!

I use cottage cheese in my quiche! I dont like it normally but in quiche it's lovely! another 100% day for me! (so far!! )

HONK!! 4th day in a row :D

I think it's pathetic!! I dont care what the size says on the label as long as its correct!! I HATE clothes shopping as sometimes even a size 18 doesnt fit when in other shops i'm a 16!

I've been 100% for 3 days now! Long may it continue!

Back to basics always helps me! Get the books out and have a good browse of the website if you are a member.Good luck!

yeah you get a little chip card now with all your details on

I love bacon but find it too expensive since i tend to eat a pack in one go lol I may have to throw a couple of red days into my week to see how it goes!

Now it's all electronic can you not get around the shifts by going to different classes? i'm working away next week and hoping I can pop into any group in that area

well done, that is truly amazing!

Hi :) well done for starting back up again. Do you go to classes?

Me! I want 7lb in august! I'll be doing green days.

full fat mayo

My next goal is my first goal! -7lb. I'm 5lb away lol

what would you do if you were not on SW? It's a big celebration, flexi syn all the way in my opinion!

You could syn your rice crispies / cheerios?

Is there any explanation of Body Magic online? Is there a FIT log on the SW website? Not sure if I'm just being blind but the pages on the SW website are pretty vague!

I find when I dont have enough syns regularly when I'm "off" SW (holiday, weekend away etc) the weight comes back on VERY quickly. I try to eat at least 85 per week, averaging at 12 per day, somedays I dont have any syns as I dont need it but others low fat variants just dont cut it!

Do they still do the cumberland ones? I havent seen any in my Asda for a long time!

I think keep going until you are happy but be careful you arent going too far!

I could have written that post myself! good luck for the rest of your journey!

I can't do red unless it's the odd here and there - i need the carbs! I've just switched to green though and finding i'm thinking about it less than i was with EE, i know where i stand with green!

I'm guessing at leat 6 times!!! I've only succeeded the first time I did it, after that I would lose a stone, maybe half a stone and give up as it wasnt coming off fast enough! I'm very impatient!! this time, I'm sticking to it to the letter and still not getting the results but i WILL get...

I too would switch, or maybe have eggs or fruit for breakfast?

hi, I'm newish to SW (this time around lol). I've lost 2lb in the last 3 weeks on extra easy, so I've switched to green! Hoping for a good loss this week!

I dont eat enough super free for EE days. i find it too much of a struggle! I've gone back to green days, and as you say they are cheaper too!

I'd bin them lol Me and hubby have a deal, he can eat whatever he wants at work but when he's in the house / with me - it's SW only!!

I want to set myself some mini goals outside of the SW stickers. Can anyone give me any ideas that will help me motivate myself?

:eek: That's shocking!! I always set my mini target at 2lb and thats adventurous for me! I agree it should be the "most improved" slimmer that week perhaps! Someone who has struggled to get their head round it or even not sure why they havent been losing very much (talking being 100% and...

Extra Easy for me, I have done SW before so am aware of Green/Red days but the consultant would only talk through the EE plan and said if we were struggling on that she would go through the other days.

I dont have any in the house and have just done my big shop so wont be going to the supermarket again anytime soon :(

i'm pretty sure the 1/3 is the suggested minimum per meal, so half will be fine!

are the lentils a must for this recipe? Anyone left them out and seen a decrease in results?

I'm struggling to get my super free in and the soup is something im trying this week. Sometimes I dont want super free with my meals and quite often im too full for fruit as a pudding

Well done for going back! I've just rejoined after a very successful journey and then lots of failed attempts! I think i always end up too cocky and cheat too much, i dont need to weigh this, i know how much 28g are etc. This time it's back to basics, weighing everything, writing it down...

I see the logic but if they are what she has worn all along then what's the point as she must know its not a true reading?! lol I wore jeans the first time, then very light leggings from then on so i cheated from week 1!

soup as a starter? EDIT: just realised im too late lol

This thread is great! I'm going to give the speed soup a go, buy some green tea and satsumas!

I had a small loss at the start of my journey and my consultant put it down to not eating enough, especially super free foods. I am trying to work on it but i find that I am struggling to eat it all!

well done!

My friend has PCOS and cannot do SW cos she gains weight, she can only follow a low GI diet, apparently that is the best for that condition. Maybe make a list of low GI foods that are SW friendly if you need to follow a plan?

For me, cold turkey is the only way! I have no willpower so it's all or nothing

I'm yet to start body magic but i think i'd do as above and collect all 4!

I never par boil mine, think it makes all the difference when it comes to dry crisp chips! I now have an actifry they are perfect in there!

using your super speed and speed (SS and S in your book) will give you a big boost!

as above, it suppresses my appetite a bit!

It's done now!! At least you know the reason if there is a slight gain and should see the actual results next week. Not sure how much difference one meal makes to be honest!

I weigh in the evening so it's going to be the end of my week!

I'd put it in the oven / microwave for later when i am hungry

i'd mention the comments by the weigher to your consultant. Does she have a phone number you can contact her on? Or maybe an email address if you dont want to confront her personally!

thanks :)

Thank you! My class is on a Thursday. It's my first WI this week!

Ive just switched from ww to sw (again) cos i found ww was too easy to eat crap all the time but still stay within my points. Lots of crisps and bread where as on sw i tend to cut them right back to next to nothing. It's all down to your down falls and where and when you lose the plot.

Hi all :D I'm a, let's say re-newbie, to Slimming world! I have done it very successfully in the past and then end up falling off the wagon somewhat - a lot! Hope I can use this forum to keep me on the straight and narrow!
