Be Lean for Halloween with Slimming World

Hi everyone

Hoping for a better day today

B - crunchy bran HEB with muller light & nectarine
L - ham & tomato omelette with beans
T - nacho style feast using primula as HEA with SW wedges & some kind of veg

Have had 10 syns so far

Have any of you heard about the HEB changes? I saw a post on instagram today saying that some allowances have changed (40g is porridge is now HEB for example instead of 35g) and some cereals such as coco shreddies & frosted shreddies are no longer HEB. I have to say I'm a bit too excited about extra porridge at brekkie time

SW website hasn't been updated but people are being told about this in group

Main changes appear to be: Porridge is now 40g, Crunchy bran 45g, Puffed wheat 40g, All bran 50g

I know some of us don't do group or instagram so thought I'd share the love :happyhear

My consultant didn't say anything about changes to HEBs yesterday morning but I'd certainly welcome 40g of porridge rather than 35g! However, as far I as I am aware puffed wheat hasn't been HEB for quite some time now, although Maman still has it occasionally.

I didn't even know that frosted shreddies were HEB (although I have to say I don't really have cereal apart from porridge or very occasionally weetabix.

Thanks all, it's been a long time coming getting to that 10% but I have it now!:D

Hope you daughter gets the job Matron, do let us know!

Our consultant posted the official leaflet this afternoon on our facebook page - I've posted the new list below if that helps. The big issue at our group was that fruit and fibre has been taken off the list as that seemed to be a popular choice for lots of people.

The other big change is sweetners are no longer free if using in large quantities, so if you use anything above a tbsp. then it needs to be synned at 0.5syn per tbsp.

40g Kelloggs Allbran Original
45g Bran Flakes
45g fruit-filled wheat biscuits, blueberry/raisin
45g Oat bran
45g Dorset Cereals Simply Delicious Muesli
45g Jordans Natural Muesli No added sugar
45g Weetabix crunchy bran
40g porridge oats
40g puffed wheat
40g Dorset Cereals Simply Nutty Muesli
40g Kelloggs All Bran Golden Crunch
40g Mornflake Swiss Style classic Muesli
40g Nestle bitesize shredded wheat
40g Nestle Honey Nut Shredded wheat
40g Nestle Shreddies original
40g Post Grape Nuts
40g Quaker Oat Crisp Cereal
40g Weetabix crispy minis - Banana/Choc Chip/Fruit & nut
2 Nestle Shredded Wheat
2 Weetabix
1 sachet Quaker Oat so simple Big bowl Original
1 sachet Quaker Oat so simple Multigrain porridge, all varieties

Hope that helps x

Thanks for that Shala . I could drown in the Puffed Wheat. It's like popcorn with no flavouring and it weighs so 'light' you get loads (and now you get loads more)! 😃

Yay for more porridge!

Food today -

B - porridge.
L - sw tomato and basil soup
D - homemade burgers with loaaaaads of veg.
Syns - wotsits 4 and a half, 3x mikado 1 and a half.

No speed with breakfast but that's not unusual for me.

Xx

Morning all

Thanks for the update on HEB cereals Shala. I've stopped eating breakfast cereals altogether now, but its useful to know I could have an extra 5g if I decide to have some again. I'm trying to do more SP days so the extra HEB could be cereals. Well done for your Club 10 too.

Beanie - I haven't seen any magnets, are they given as awards?

Good luck to your daughter Matron.

My group are having a festive taster session this week so I've been looking through recipes for ideas. I decided to do Scan Bran 'Ferrero Rocher' but I don't have any Scan Bran so I'm going to use Finn Crisp thin crispbread instead. I've got the other ingredients (Nutella and Golden Syrup) so all I need to buy is some petit four cases.

It feels too early to be thinking about Christmas, especially as I won't be here, but as the Consultant says, it's only 12 weeks away so we need to get ready.

Have a great weekend everyone.
