Just realised I hadn't had my HEXB so just had 2 fruit ryvita I really like them

No idea what today was not enough superfree and too many syns so probably not a good day!!

Probably need to go to bed!

My initial thought is more super free. Have melon and grapefruit as well at breakfast. Have a salad with the bread on the side and have fruit after as well as prunes as they aren't super free. How did you make your spaghetti Bol? I cram mine with grated carrot celery and courgette as well as onion mushroom and pepper. And have a side salad with it.

Vary your HEXB have cereal or ryvita or cereal bar

I don't do ee but they are my thoughts from what my c says. Heather may have more advice as she does ee sometimes xx
 
Can I stick my oar in too? I remember being a newbie and it all being a bit overwhelming!

Definitely try and get a bit more superfree in. Belle's suggestion of stuffing a spag bol with super free is a great one and something we do all the time at home. It makes it way more filling which means you need less pasta. Not that you have to weigh or measure on SW and can eat as much as you like, but it's always worth being a little conscious of portion size.

If you're using Options sachets, they are 2 syns (40 cals).

Maybe try and have something a little more filling for breakfast to set you up for the day? Overnight oats are a great one and only use 1/2 your hexb (the night before, in a glass or bowl or tupperware, layer some fresh fruit e.g. raspberries with some free yoghurt e.g. Muller Light and shake 1/2 your HEXB overnight oats between the layers. Leave in the fridge over night and it's delish in the morning!)

Also make sure you're drinking plenty of water and put a slice of lemon in if you fancy. I really find that helps boost my losses.

Good luck with your journey :) xx
 
Thanks guys :) I made my spag bol with tomatoes, kidney beans, peppers, mushrooms, grated carrot and onion - was filling and I didn't even eat all my pasta. I tried the overnight oats but really didnt like it :eek: todays breakfast was a syn free yogurt and banana, dinner is beans, scrambled egg and bacon and tea is diet coke chicken with sw chips and veg - is that sounding okay ? Really need to get my head around this, cant cope with another nothing happens week :banghead: x

You need super free at lunch and I would def eat more for breakfast, I had Linda mcartney red onion sausages beans an egg and onion and mushroom yesterday for breakfast and it kept me going so well I didn't need much lunch.

As misscorset says plenty of water I've had 1.5l so far

It does work! xx
 
Okay I will make sure I have more for breakfast ( was having weetabix last week but decided milk for my coffee was more important to me) for lunch I will add lettuce, tomatoes, pepper and cucumber - that sounding better? I will also have my bread with dinner so shouldnt need anything between then and teatime :D xxx

There are lots of things you could have for breakfast and not use your HEX's hun - I try and save mine for snacks too so don't like to use them all for brekkie!

How about scrambled eggs or some people make wraps from omelettes and wrap them around Linda McCartney or LF Quorn sausages! Or I sometimes make banana pancakes from a mashed banana mixed with a little beaten egg - they are mega tasty topped with some fresh (or defrosted frozen) berries. I know some people make a sweet rice pudding or sweet couscous for breakfast too.

xx
 
Superfree is the key for sure, take a pic of your meal and look at it, it helps you see if you really have 1/3 superfree it can be easier to see when you look at a pic
 
Okay I have a plan - beans and poached egg for breakfast, salad, meat and wholemeal bread for dinner and veg with meat for tea, lots of water, green tea and cut back to 10 syns a day - good plan????

P.s. thanks again :D x
