Hiya Rosielea! Thanks for the advice. Im actually doing Extra Easy (well I thought I was) but I suppose it is more of a green day.. how do I make it more Extra Easy? I'm starting to get confused between all the plans! eek! and as for the syns, I just had a orange creme roses lol so I guess that adds another 2.5 syns i think!!
Ultrabluedress whats gouda? anything deep fried sounds good to me to be honest . Im training to become a make up artist so i brought myself this huge palette with 200 eyeshadows on it, and im debating wether i should wrap it up or to just play with it. hmmm might mess around with it a bit first and then wrap it. best of both worlds!!
So im trying an EE day today (hopefully ill get it right this time!! )
B: 2xweetabix with 250ml ss milk (HeA and HeB) + Banana
S: Apple
L: Large salad with 2 boiled eggs and 3 slices of grilled bacon (all the fat trimmed off ) + Mullerlight Yoghart
S: Orange
D: Pasta with tomatoes, chilli, leek, sweetcorn, ham topped with cheese (3 syns - im just guessing because i cant get onto the database atm) with SW chips and side salad
Cadbury's dairy milk choccy from the roses tin (2.5 syns)
Really need to up my syns! Any suggestions?
I really struggle with eating my syns everyday, today I've got to 9.5 because of using pre-made sauce but I don't like to do that. Some people use their syns on 'treats' like a curly wurly is 6 syns, but other people say its better to use them on healthier foods. On a red day you can use syns for carbs and on a green you can use syns for meat, because extra easy you can have both I found I was synning hex's especially hexA's because I love cheese! I've been doing this 13 weeks now and I'm just about getting to grips with it all and know what I can and can't have without checking the book. It takes a while but it really is such a good food plan. Good luck

Thats the hardest part i have found so far using my syns! /QUOTE]
I did not use my syns either until I decided this is a lifestyle change and need to incorporate real life items in there. Then I use my syns as much as I can. Must admit, I have been bad using them on chocolates as I feel my body needs sweets and I was given some over summer time - I have rashened myself to 2 every few days. Other times I have a nice dessert or incorporate in my food like chrizo, curry paste, mayonaise (can't stand extra light which taste of chemicals). I am not strictly on SW - use its principals by the books I have from many years ago, eat what I want (mindfully) and then when I put it in my food diary convert them into Plans, syns and HEXs. Works well for me. In my opinion SW is the best plan for someone foodie like me - I can go without alcohol, cream cakes, chocolates but can't starve on meals.
It will take a few weeks to get your head around different plans but you get there. Ask any question if you are not sure an dsomeone will answer it.
The support on the forum is incredible and certainly, I would not have lost the weight without all these lovely people.
By the way you do not need to syn Ham in your dinner as you are doing EE.
