Thanks - guess I could try that tomorrow.

Can anybody help me with some ideas? I am a veggie doing Extra Easy, mostly because Green just seems to mean you eat more and I am not really losing much weight so far. I don't have very much time on my hands so have been making magic porridge every night for work day mornings which I have...

Thanks Laura :)

Would somebody be able to help me with a few questions please? Magic Porridge - I know this is meant to be 35g of oats. My scales are badly inaccurate - does anyone know what that looks like in level tablespoons. I like to sprout beans like chickpeas, mung beans, aduki beans - are these still...

I think we can be sure I will need more help!! :D

So far so good - I shall be slipping down drains next week!! ;) Thanks so much for all your help - you've kept me going when I was going to throw in the towel.

I did buy some laughing cow extra light cheese spread. It was the lowest fat in the supermarket - I guess that's a healthy extra though.

Thank-you my lovelies. I've been shopping this morning and have loads of fruit, fromage frais, forgot the yoghurt (doh!!), veggies and salad. Can I sill drink sugar free squash? If I have poached egg on toast, is there something FREE that I can spread on the toast?

I like poached but normally I like them on toast which is a bit of a no no. This magic porridge - it's oats soaked all night in yoghurt, right?

Yay!! Thanks Jezz - yes, no lighthead today!! Do you have any suggestions for breakfast? I'm a veggie and I don't think I can face cereals. I like the sound of magic porridge.

To my SW mentors!! This is what I've eaten so far today Brekkie - 2 eggs scrambled with some spring onion and a small can of beans. This was truly vile and I need to get to grips with breakfast better but I think that was all free. Lunch - 2 slices wholemeal bread spread with philadelphia...

That's great, I didn't know that. That's going to be a massive help! Thanks so much for helping me out today. I am shopping tomorrow - this will help as I have so little in the house apart from oranges. I am already sick of oranges!!

Thanks ladies. I thought I could only have 1 healthy extra A and 1 healthy extra B. My A is always going to be milk in my coffee as I can't imagine a day without caffeine! So I do have only the B - I can have 2 healthy extra B's? This is bread and other carbs right? I do eat quorn, in fact...

I do have eggs and baked beans in the house - I think I need to shop! So jacket potato with cottage cheese is sin free and not a healthy extra? That sounds good apart from the no butter! I have to have that chilli again tomorrow as I made so much!! I'm not sure what to put with it this time...

Thanks Laura, you're being so helpful. I am new to dieting. I'm only doing it now because I had an op 3 weeks ago and the anaesethist told me my BMI is 29. I didn't even really know I was overweight. So I can have 2 healthy extra B's . My healthy extra A is always going to be used up with...

OK - well today I have had 5 cups of coffee all with skimmed milk. I don't take sugar. I skipped breakfast because I only had oranges or bread or eggs and couldn't think what to make which is why I drank so much coffee - I had a cup every time I got really hungry. For lunch I had a tin of...

Thanks ladies - so if I count my bread as a healthy extra and the milk in my coffee as another healthy extra. My soup was 13 sins (I think). Now I should only eat the free stuff which is veggies, salad and fruit. I should mention that I'm vegetarian. I probably need to shop - the only fruit I...

Well I just had a can of soup and 2 slices of wholemeal bread and a cup of coffee - that was over 20 sins. I couldn't work out what on earth to have for breakfast so I skipped it and had coffee every time the hunger pangs got overwhelming so that was another 3 cups of coffee and I've had 2 more...

Gazter, great idea - I have a slow cooker and I could do that. So it's chopped veggies in stock or water on low all night? All veggies are acceptable apart from peas and broad beans right? I could make a vegetable stew for tea and not be using any more sins too. It just leaves breakfast...

Thanks Missy and Gazter. I only ever drink skimmed milk and I've had 4 cups of coffee today but that was instead of breakfast mostly. My can of soup was 13 sins and I had 2 slices of wholemeal bread which were each 3 sins. I think I probably need to buy a starter pack off ebay to help me work...

Thanks Missy - I skipped breakfast and had 3 cups of coffee instead because I couldn't work out what to eat. The coffee is a sin because I have it with milk. But- then I had a can of veggie soup with 2 slices of bread for lunch which turned out to be 19 sins when I put it in my food diary...

I signed up to SW yesterday to do it online. Yesterday I ate 68 sins and today I've had over 30 and have only eaten one meal! Do you think I need to go to ebay and buy the starter packs to help me get going?

Holy crap - I just had that with bread. 19 sins just for lunch!!

I had Tesco Tuscan Bean Soup and 2 pieces of bread - 19 sins! Lucky I didn't have breakfast, right. I have had 4 cups of coffee with skimmed milk which is a few more sins too.

So I'm a veggie - reckon I have about 2 and 1/2 stone to lose. I signed up to Slimming World online yesterday and I am CLUELESS. I've not eaten today because I can't work out what to eat for breakfast. I have to have coffee so I think milk in these will be all my sins for a day or is it a...

Thanks Missy - that would be so helpful. It's 10.30am here and I still haven't eaten because I can't work out what to have for breakfast. Am starving. I want toast but I have to have coffee and can't spare the healthy extras, I don't think. I can't go without coffee and I hate breakfast cereals.

Hey everyone - I just joined Slimming World online because of my shift pattern, I didn't think I could get to the local group. I have to say I have NO CLUE what I am doing. There's no support online on the slimming world website which is how I found this wonderful site by googling for help...
