Sorry to say but peas arent superfree, they are only free.. unless you are eating sugar snap peas in the pod
Do u really think SW is the way forward? How long u been doing it an whats your loss?
I feel so down at the moment, struggling to get this weight off! X
I'm a little confused. Does it have to be one third superfree with every meal or can it be one third of your daily intake. For example I've eaten tons of superfree fruit and veg today but then had a bacon and egg sarnie for a late night supper (syned bread and grilled bacon of course). As a token gesture I followed it with more superfree fruit but I don't know if that counts. Any advice?
Ideally, the 1/3 should represent a third of your plate so technically should be part of the meal. Whenever i fancy bacon softie, i just have some cherry tomatoes with it and that makes up the 1/3.
One point of the superfree is that, by being 1/3 of the plateful, it helps with portion control for the rest of the meal. So, if you keep to your superfree with your day's total, but not meal by meal, you're not giving yourself the same advantage that you would be by making sure you had only a normal sized portion in total, and 1/3 of it was superfree. It doesn't mean you didn't stick to plan, but it wouldn't have been the absolute optimised plan.
For us to be able to help you as much as possible, if you list your day's food showing when you had it, and what you had together, we can see how well your 1/3 superfree was spread out.
Obviously it would be easier if you liked veg, and could put that on a plate with a main meal! But if you don't, then at least if you try to eat a portion controlled meal, and have some fruit with it, you'll be following the 1/3 superfree as well as you can.
