Hi everyone New to this posting on this part of the forum but must admit i have been lurking here for a while!!

Anyway, I joined SW on Wednesday and think I am getting on ok so far! There are a couple of small things I am unsure about and am hoping some of you lovely people may be able to help me out!

I am following the Extra Easy plan. Do you HAVE to have a Healthy Extra A and a Healthy Extra B, or are they optional?? Also when having the pasta n' sauces......although they are a free food do you count the milk and butter needed to make it as healthy extras and/or syns?

Thanks in advance for your help

I have struggled so much today .. i really need some distractions for when i want to binge eat like tonight.

I really hope i can kick this bad habbit.

I also am finding myself cutting corners. Not properly measuring my flora light and maybe not doing my healthy extras probably , any tips to get into a good routine to avoid cutting corners?

Red day tomorrow for me! As so far i have had green days , and am worried with me having PCOS that the carbs will have a bad effect. I also have ibs which suffers with to many carbs , but i love carbs talk about bad situation lol.

Thanks for the welcomes ladies! Anyone know to get the new mullers that are out? x

McGrath - if you are going to join SW don't forget to buy the current Woman magazine where there is a £10 voucher to give you free membership, only pay class fee, a saving of £5 on the current SW class offer.

The current offer is half price mambership..so your first week should cost £9.50. Which is £5 membership and £4.50 class fee.
So if this is a £10 voucher you may get your first week completly free.
Also if you take a friend with you, you will get a voucher for another free week to use when you want.
Im the money lady at group, so deal with the new offers ect and i know these offers are valid all Month.

Hope you all have a great day

The Woman offer is for free membership (saving £10) and only pay for class fee (£4.50), so the first meeting wouldn't be completely free, but would save £5 on the current class offer (£5 membership instead of £10).
It's worth buying the magazine for 90p to get the saving, there's a week Extra Easy plan in as well.

Yes you do have to have HEa & HEb for your daily calcium & fibre intake..one of each only. As for pasta n sc, make it with water instead (no butter) then free (not cheese one though)
correct me if I'm wrong anyone

Yeah I make them with water, slightly less than fluid requirements as i find it makes sauce thicker. Macaroni one is only 1 syn I believe.

No you are quite right:T The pasta in sauce is made just with water, any milk you add would be out of your HEA and butter would by syned!
