    Hmmm, err- after all that panicking and stress I lost 2.5Ib and got my club 10 award. :o

    Can't be too bad- they only give you little bits. Besides... if it's wedding related it doesn't count! :p

    I am going to nandos for dinner tonight. Have looked at menu online and a section they have on healthy eating. According to the the following is 423cals and 11g fat so I am going with this... that and it's based around free foods! :)

    mixed salad- mixed lettuce leaves, peppers, tomatoes
    1/4 lemon and herb chicken
    regular spicy rice

    Hopefully won't be too damaging :)

    Hello everyone. I've been away from the forum for a little while. After doing the initial planning everything got a bit much, and my Granny passed away so I really needed a break from anything wedding related.... But I'm back now to occasionally pop my head through the door. Anyway I thought I'd let you all know I might be becoming a consultant which I'm really excited about!!

    Hello ladies! I haven't been able to read everything on this thread so apologies if this is already answered here. It's not entirely clear on SW website but is the basic premise of the diet that you don't mix carbs and proteins - so a green day is veg, fruit, carbs, and a red day means you can have meat but no pasta, rice, bread, spuds etc?

    My mum is thinking of doing SW and I've printed off the sample 7 day menu for her, but its all green days, and, as she likes her porridge for breakfast we couldn't see how that would work on a red day! Sorry if that sounds dim!! Am not functioning very well today! :(
    If you have nothing constructive to say just move along.

    Hi- I shall link you to THIS thread, as the first post is written by a SW consultant and she explains the red and green days, and also the new EE option quite well. :)
