Hi everyone,
I'm really glad I found this forum- I've been struggling with getting my head round SW and have nearly given up. :cry:
I've been on Extra Easy and lost 2 lbs the first week. Then the 2nd week I stuck to the plan exactly- no cheating at all- and stayed the same. This week I've fallen off the wagon and I'm trying to get back on!
The problem is that I can do SW when I have nothing else on... but when life gets busy or stressful I end up not having time to properly prepare meals and reach for sandwiches, ready meals, or whatever's easiest. Or I end up eating the piles of fruit to keep going (and then feel sick!).
Can anyone give me ideas for what to eat when I run out of time? Quick and easy ideas that would feed the kids and myself... Literally grab and go type of things. So far I've found Uncle Ben's ready made rice, little packets of pot noodle that are syn-free. What I really need are things that don't require cooking for lunches on the go and quick meals for the occasional rushed tea...
Thank you so much!
