hello all 
I am fairly new to slimming world (about 3weeks)and I signed up online as there are no classes near me and also have been receiving advice from my mum in law as she goes to the classes but I am really struggling with what to eat and when. I am following the extra easy plan, I have my healthy extra a + b then only eat jacket potatoes and salad. I'm not having any syns and only eating 3times a day but have been told that this is not as great as I thought as I am not eating enough!!! I find that I am so full though I don't really crave any syns but my M.I.L has said that by not eating syns and having very few calories I may actually slow down/stop my weight loss all together!! this is what I would typically eat in a day:
breakfast - Fitnesse cereal(30g - HEb) topped with chopped banana, kiwi, plum and mullerlight yoghurt.
lunch - jacket potatoe, 20g low fat cheddar (half of HEa) slice of carved ham/tin dry tuna/chicken breast with skins removed, peppers, spinach, red currants, raw carrot and lettuce <--- all dumped on the same plate, lack of imagination!! :'(
dinner - pretty much the same as lunch!!!!
if I get peckish (which hasn't happened yet!!) I have bought some whole walnuts and dried apricots to snack on....
I have found that I have lost weight quite dramatically since following the diet but as I have no support locally from a professional I'm not sure if what I am doing is right or not
any help would be appreciated!!!!
