I'm having a real problem with Red days. My fav is Green, but my planned meals for this weekend were red.
Yesterday I'd planned to make a big chicken caesar salad (count the dressing syns) and today I'd planned a roast. Yesterday I changed at lunchtime and ended up on Green, made the Chicken C Salad for my son (who loves it) and I had spag bol that was in the freezer and had a really good day, everything counted and only 8 syns used. Today though I've stuck to Red and I've been starving and I've cheated and had stuff I shouldnt have. I stopped counting syns when I'd got to 20 about 3pm and its just got me so frustrated.
I feel fuller on Green days, Red days just do my head in.
Do you think I can stay on Green. I thought you had to mix the days up through the week but I just cant stand the thought of another red.
Will this still work if I do mostly greens with the odd occasional red a month when I fancy a steak?
What does everyone think?
Btw i've stopped eating for the day, I've gone over on my syns but can make that up over the next couple of days.
