This is a brilliant idea. I was counting calories for a while and bought a brilliant diary from amazon which included sections for drinks and exercise, unfortunately this can't be adapted for sw I'd love a sw world one, and I think the majority of my class and the people on here would use it

Well every SWC I've spoken to tells you to write it down! You need to keep track of syns & HEx's!!

I'm the tortoise.
I know they do, mine does too. But SW don't actively encourage it, else they would have produced one by now. It's more revenue for them after all. the purpose of filling out a food diary for the first 4 weeks is for the consultants the check you've got the gist of how to follow the plan, rather than a method of actively recording everything you eat. As I said I do think it would be a brilliant idea, but I also understand why SW don't, as a principle.

Better drink that water!
Great ideas!
They would need to do one that can cater for all adaptions - I am breastfeeding so have extra HEs - I couldnt get on with the one in my pack as it didnt give space for my extra HEs - I used a note book and wrote down every meal and then totted up the Syns at the bottom.
To be honest my consultant has never looked at it or asked for it, I guess as I am loosing weight she must think I am doing the right think.
I do agree that writing it down helps - there were times where I nearly caved and reached into my sons treats but thought 'no I cant do it as I have to write it down!'

Too big to fail
This thread has got me thinking.....I've run out of diary slips from SW and as a result, I think I've been pretty poor at writing things down this week and I have slipped up a bit I think (Not sure really......when I don't write it down, I FEEL like I'm all over the place, whether I am or not)
So, I have been and bought a note book and written up the dates from now until next June (yeah, i'm a saddo). I don't think I'll take it further than that, in terms of design. I'll just write HEX at the tope, followed by free foods in the middle of each page, leaving the bottom for syns. Should be fine!
Oh, and it's small and pretty and I won't mind if it fell out of my bag....it could be anything! Likewise I have backed my SW book so that I can take it out in supermarket aisles/at my desk and not feel like everyone is looking at the slimmer!

I've rec'd my reply.
Many thanks for your email.
I’m not sure from your enquiry whether you mean a printed long term diary? If this is the case I wanted to let you know that we haven’t any plans to produce one. However, you can use the Online diary to record things like your favourite meal within the ‘journal’ section, and you can also save your food diaries so you can click back and view them at any time, again you can add your comments on the journal about your best weeks and weeks that haven’t gone so well.
I hope this helps

Welll mine wasnt so good
Dear Lianna
Many thanks for your email.
I wanted to let you know that we haven’t any plans to produce a printed food diary, and this is because whilst we supply paper food diaries to help new members for their first four weeks, we encourage Food Optimisers to become relaxed and comfortable with their new pattern of eating rather than recording their food intake long-term.
Many members find that a satisfying way of using the ‘online’ food diary is to record particular meals they’ve enjoyed, or days full of Free and Speed Food, to use for future reference. You can also use the online diary to record notes within the ‘journal’ section, and you can also save your food diaries so you can click back and view them at any time.
