Other items available include- soups, shakes, tetras (ready made milkshakes) bars (i.e. cranberry, toffee, orange, chocolate, peanut & caramel) porridges (apple & cinnamon/ original) water flavourings (although these do not count towards your 3 meals a day)
You can also buy mix-a-mousse which makes your shakes into angel delight consistency type mousses

Hi everyone!
I'm only on my day 4 and have tried the crisps twice! They are really yummy.
Have also made ice cream and muffin, at least it's a change from the soup & shake!

Is that because you're compromising the nutritional value by heating it? Will it affect weight loss?
Eek. Remember the goal is to lose weight healthily.

Have just made a 'muffin' using choc shake, 2 sweeteners and water. It was suprisingly really tasty and used this as my 4th SS+ meal.

I know many of you do these recipe cheats and they all sound great, was excited to find them and when mentioned it to my advisor was told the Cambridge are very against it all as you lose you nutritional value (minerals/vitamins) so is bad for your health and she is VERY strict anyway, was gutted as loved the sound of the muffins and really wanted to try one. So out of curiousity all of you that DO these "cheats" has it affected your weight loss?? made it slow down?? Im asking as my first week I lost 7lbs, 2nd week 5lbs, 3rd week 3lbs, 4th week 2lbs.....getting very unmotivated as if ive plateueud or something, then again I was in innocent hope to lose 7lbs a week hahaha....got 2months to lose 2stone....which now seems hopeless, I mentioned to my advisor seeing as its all stopping/slowing down I might move to SS+ as Im losing motivation on SS, not because its hard, just the weight loss is slow. So if cheating makes it slower I dont wanna risk it. Cant wait for your answers......*dreaming of muffins*

I read this on another thread:-
It seems to me that to go against this advice is like sticking our fingers in our ears and going la-la-la. I for one am not going to chance it, and intend to stick to the diet as is (however scrummy the recipes might sound - I'd rather have the 'real thing' when I've lost all my weight)! I also think it's bad psychology - like 'pretend' food. If you've 'trained your brain' properly on this diet, then you shouldn't really need 'crutches' like this anyway - should you? (I'm only on week two! But my weight loss is so good and I feel so great that I don't want to mess anything up.)

(I'm only on week two! But my weight loss is so good and I feel so great that I don't want to mess anything up.)Absolutely, though if you are having these recipes on top of your SS allowance (as in the 4th pack for SS+) you would still be getting everything you need in the way of nutrition...so it's not a cheat really.
Having said that, this thread does bother me because I feel sure people don't read my reminders about it

Sorry, I missed this one. What's the answer? Well, I suppose you coud look at it another way. It's an extreme diet that cuts out traditional food (if you SS). It could be a pill, or liquid medication like cod liver oil, but instead it's umpteen flavoured shakes, some you can make into mousse, loads of different flavoured soups, bars for those who do use them, even porridge (2 flavours). And flavoured drinks.
so if you are looking for variety compared to normal eating, it could be hard. If you are thanking your lucky stars that it's not a teaspoon of some revolting medicine once a day, the variety is very appealing

I think you misunderstood me. All I needed to know was that "you shouldn't do it because you won't be getting the nutrients you need".... I love all of the shake flavours, but I'm missing chewing as I've cut the bars out completely due to slow weight loss. I wanted texture - that's all!
Thanks to everyone for all the great advice on here!
