    I am a lapsed SW member and will be rejoining on Tuesday am - just wanted to know about Extra Easy ie is it a slower weight loss to Red, Green days? Is it really as simple as choosing from everything available on Red/Green days except only 1 HA and 1HB?

    Sounds too good to be true!!

    Evening guys! I'm feeling very virtuous, just finished 30 mins of exercise, and for me that's LOADS :A :A :A

    Heehee. Oh and I found the WW Brown Danish (THREE slices for a HEb) in Asda, in case anyone else is like me and willing to travel for the sake of being able to eat more bread!

    I also bought some WW chocolate whip sachets. On the website it says this:

    Weight Watchers Chocolate Dessert Whip, made up as directed, dried 69g serving[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]

    [FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]red.gif[/FONT] Original 2 Syns [FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]green.gif[/FONT] Green 2 Syns[/FONT]


    If you are [FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]having an Extra Easy day, choose the lower [/FONT][FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Syn value [/FONT]
    [/FONT]
    Do you think that means that if you're taking the milk used in it is part of your HEa, you can take a syn off (as 63ml of skimmed milk = 1 syn)?? :confused: Or am I pushing the boundaries? :D

    Yes it really is as simple as that - almost! Any syns you have will be counted at the lower number ie. if something is 2 syns on green but 1,589 on red you count it as 2 syns. Some people have found that they do lose a little slower on EE but then others have found the opposite. I think the secret to a good loss on EE is to follow the suggestion of SW and try to fill 1/3 (at least) of your plate with superfree foods. Good luck!

    Hiya girls

    this has probably already been asked on these boards but how many pounds do u need to lose before you go down a dress size please, thanks x
  • I've got weigh in tonight and I'm really hoping for a loss but not sure. We've all been ill in our house this week and still feeling awful. Some kind of dysentery bug I think !! I also had to have my dalmation put to sleep yesterday so I don't think that has helped my belly :(
    I have eaten very little compared to normal and only managed a piece of toast so far today :(

    So sorry to hear about your doggy xx
  • Progress so far:
    Cook a SW meal you have NEVER had before!
    I will try the Baked Bean Lasagne!
    2. Do 15 mins EXTRA exercise in addition to what you normally do!
    I normally do nothing so I will commit to 15 minutes on my trampette!
    3. Buy and eat a piece of fruit you have not had for ages!
    [strike]I have ordered an Ugli fruit in my shopping delivery so that will be something new![/strike]
    4. Add your own personal target for the week here.

    I will aim for 1 lb off this week.
    For future reference, an ugli fruit is pretty much just an out of control satsuma! Me and the kids shared it and enjoyed the novelty. I am just wondering who to stick the "Ugli" sticker to now...:rotfl:
