Even though you can have unlimited meat, potatoes, rice, spaghetti etc do you still try to have your 5 a day?

Yes, the more you fill up on your super free foods (veg, salad and fruit) the quicker the weight will come off.

Thanks squidge and lozzy, think I need to have more veg then and perhaps less carbs. Will give it ago this week and see what happens Makes sense to fill up on fruit and veg.xxx
Oh, sorry one more thing. Should I try and have fruit with my breakfast then?

 

[Squidge]

Can someone help? I'm doing EE and just been entering the food i've had today on the online diary now some have come up green, some orange and some red?! Never used the online thing before so i don't know what's what...

I've had to eat today:

B - Beans on Toast (HEb)
D - Jacket Potato, wafer thin ham, tuna, lettuce & 250 SS milk (HEa)
T - Spag Bol

I'm just confused now it's come up 3 different colours and hoping i've not done it wrong

That's what i thought it could have been.

Have spent the last half an hour going through the book so i'm pretty certain i've been doing it right. I just got a bit confused with all the colours

2wks?! Wow, your ahead I've only done mine up until next weigh in so 7 days!

 

[Kate&Lucas]

If you're having your 1/3 superfree, you don't really need to try! I think I have well over - my SW leader says you should be having at least 8 a day if you're having your 1/3.

With regards to the colours on the food diary - is it not just to what's free/superfree? For instance in the book, anything on the orange pages is superfree, anything on the green pages free on EE and green, and the red EE and original.

 

[firstprincess]

Hey all.

I have not been on for a while (life is a bit hectic my end!)

Im still on track. Will update my ticker etc below. I also got my 10% award this week.... whoop. Want to lose another 1st - 1st 7lbs.

We do our shopping 2 weekly so its how we have always done things...

Only problem i am having is one of the dinners i am going to do wants me to get 900g of RAW tiger prawns, i cant find them anywhere lol They are all cooked

I thought it was superfree to until I saw that eggs were coming up orange and that confused me so I think it could just be EE in orange????

Well done on the 10% firstprincess.

Pink ive seen them in Tesco and Asda in the fish part by the counter iykwim, if you cant get them im sure they will taste as good with cooked ones.

 

[Mrs Eleflump]

WOOHOO!!!! FINALLY got my 1/2 stone award, I've lost 2lb this week! So chuffed, that's the most I've lost in a week, and very welcome after maintaining last week.

Hubby "needs" a Domino's tonight so I am going to allow myself to join him in celebration, and straight back on it tomorrow (plus a 9km run!). I know I shouldn't reward myself with food, but hey...

Hope everyone's had a good week and is having a good weekend

 

[Squidge]

Well done! Enjoy your dominoes

We're having chicken wrapped in bacon, home-made wedges and garden peas for tea - looking forward to it!

 

[sugarkane]

Hi everyone hope your all doing well, Ive just had a roasted veg paella and was great even if I say so myself. Athough I could just eat some chicken wrapped in bacon I love that.

Well done on the 1/2 stone Mrs Eleflump

 

[Kate&Lucas]

Well done FP and Mrs Eleflump!!
I'm aiming for my Club 10 next week, need at least 1lb off

Well I'm off out in a little bit! Going into Liverpool for my sister's birthday. Saved around 45-50 syns so I won't feel too guilty having a bit of a lash

 

[Pink Flowers]

Im confused, how can eating potatoes make you loose weight? I have made 2 SW reciepes and they have both been loads of potatoes.

But my fish pie was yum and only 2 syns!!

 

[Squidge]

I'm confused too but i ate them last week and lost 3lb! I think it's cos you don't eat fat? So I was told anyway

 

[sugarkane]

No idea either but I think its a mixture of no fat plus there is only so much you can eat so in theory as long as your eating and filling up on your 1/3 superfree through the day you will be full and not eat so much of the potatoes/pasta etc All I know is it works and its the only thing that does so im trying my hardest to stick to it
