hiya im returning to slimming world but its been a while. does anyone have any lunch suggestions? I cannot go to a class until Thursday.

Thanks xx
 
Have you got facilities to make a hot lunch or not?

I tend to take sushi or a salad with meat/chicken/fish with me most days (the aldi smoked salmon fillets are fab for lunchboxes and so tasty you won't need a dressing on your salad), but if I haven't managed to make something I'll get a wholemeal sandwich from the deli counter in the canteen filled with lots of salad and lean meat/chicken, or alternatively a jacket potato with beans or soup

A lot of people make couscous and pasta salads on a regular basis as these are good and filling xx

no I basically eat what a can take. dunno if I would like cold fish but could try.

I have some cous cous in I can have tomorrow.

What kind of healthy extra b's are there? xx
 
You could have 2-4 ryvita as a HEB with whatever you'd like on top, or Finn Crisp x 5, or use your 60g wholemeal bread to make a sandwich up in advance and take a yogurt and some fruit to make it a filling meal?
 
Hiya, I've just come back to SW too last friday (and to minis after an 18ish month hiatus :eek:).

I'm also in a pickle about sorting lunches for work. For the moment I'll probably make extra of my evening meals and take leftovers in for lunch where possible or hit a subway for a salad bowl and top that up with some potatoes, rice or homemade free soup on an EE day :jelous:

I think it's hard sometimes thinking of meal ideas. plus I don't have the books to see a list of foods so was after ideas. I have shreddies in can they be a hexb? or how many syns?

lunch ill stick with salad and soups. can you have mackerel? xx
 
wahoo thanks was just looking thru your diary :) xxx
 
Yes mackeral is free on red/ee :)

I'm pretty sure plain shreddies are a hexb - probably 30g allowance. I'm in the same boat as you, no new books yet so I'm just searching around or asking other folks on here for stuff I don't know. Until you can get to group I'm sure the odd mistake here and there won't do you any harm - I boogered up on saturday having pork ramen for lunch at wagamama thinking it would be a safe choice but a friend on here informed me it was 35 syns :eek: We learn as we go lol

You can use your healthy A choice for the milk or it's 6 syns for the same amount - I'm not 100% on that.

I've been having some cereals with a mullerlight instead 'cause I like to save my hexa for a milky coffee in the evening or cheese with a meal. Though yogurt probably won't work with shreddies lol
Yep sweetcorn is fine on EE/green - you need to make sure you're having some superfree veg with your meals though on EE, and maybe stick a banana on your cereal or have another piece of fruit with it too.

Mullerlights I think they're all synfree apart from the cheesecake ones and the one with a cherry fruit layer - tbh I cheat and count them all as free hehe.
 
ohh yea I forgot about my hex a :) x
