Lose one stone for holiday time! Red, Green and EE days!

[lolacola]

Holiday is booked for 02/09/13 - I've let myself slip a bit over the last 6 months or so and gained 7lbs, however I want to get a stone off for my holiday, which is at the beginning of September. No Sweat!

Back to my usual SW plan in earnest now!

Hey! Just popping in to subscribe I have about a stone to lose as well. What do you put in your speed soup? I'm tempted to try some green days, do you find the lack of fruit/veg slows it down at all? xx

 

[lolacola]

Hi fruitandcoffee - thanks for the comment and sub I don't know what it is about me, but I find I have better losses on green days! I do make an effort to get my superfree in, but it's just not as rigid as having to have the one third superfree that you would when doing EE. My aim is generally to have one third superfree over the course of the whole day as opposed to having to have it in every single meal which I found a bit of a challenge when I first started out!

Let's see how it goes with the SS soup - I've only ever did one week of superspeed soup before which was on my original SW journey and I had a great loss that week, so thought I'd try it again. The recipe is:

2 leeks
1 red, one green and 1 yellow pepper
4 carrots
2 parsnips
1 large onion
2 tins of chopped tomatoes
1 tin of beans
1 tin of green lentils
1 tin of mixed bean salad
1 ham stock cube
and enough water to cover it all.

Beware, it makes LOADS! I used some of it up by using it as a base for a chicken and chorizo pasta bake for my non-sw following other half and he loved it!

Hi, I just noticed you only have one HEB choice but you can have 2 on red and green days and 1 or 2 HEA choices so you could have had the chicken as your 2nd HEB choice
