Hi Everyone.

I was wondering if I could get some feedback on my plan for the day?

Breakfast
Raisin Wheats HeB (1/2 28g)
Skim milk HeA (1/4 - 87ml)
Tea w/ Semi skimHeA (1/4 - 62ml)

Lunch
Tomatoes Free
Celery Free
Hummous HeB (1/2 14g)
SnackFruit Free
Tea w/semi skim HeA (1/4 - 62ml)

Dinner
Pasta Free
Halloumi 3.5
Mixed Veg Free
Spray of frylight Free

Muller light Free
Hot chock w/semi skim HeA (1/4 - 62ml) and 2 syns


Syns 5.5


I end up doing my healthy extra A in bits coz i have it in cups of tea or with a tiny bit of cereal. I've given myself a low syn count today as we're off to the park and i'll prob end up having a Solero (5 syns I think).


Hope everyone has a lovely weekend - enjoy the sunshine!!:cool:

Sorry to repeat myself but again this would work better as a green day rather than an EE one. I just think that unless you are having meat there is no reason to have an extra easy day as you are essentially just depriving yourself of an extra HEA and HEB choice. Also by changing to green the houmous can count as a HEB choice which it can't on red and EE.

You can split your HE's up but this can only be done where the HE is made up of one choice only. So it doesn't work with the raisin wheats because to count it as a HEB choice you have a ryvita multigrain with it. It would for example work with eg special k sustain (ie 28g=a HEB choice so you could have 14g and 14g of houmous and count both as a HEB choice if you wanted). If you like houmous btw you may want to buy some low fat one as you can have a larger 57g portion of that as HEB on a green day.

I know it seems very confusing but really the longer you follow the plan the more you get your head around it.

Hi all

Not good today - weigh in and have put on a lb!!!

I am really struggling to lose weight. I am 28, 5'3" and weigh 10st 7lb. I want to get to around 9st. I am following the slimming world eating plan and go to the gym 5 times a week. At the gym I do 30mins cardio on the treadmill (jogging for 23 mins the rest a fast walk) following by about 40 mins of free weights and ab work. However, I am not losing weight indeed this week I put on a lb. I really need some help as despite all my hard work at the gym it doesn't seem to be working.

I have been super good all week re. SW

Anyone got any ideas??

How much water are you drinking each day Karen??

Also, have you always exercised this much or have you only just started?

when is Aunt Flo due Karen? i used to put on 4lbs! how about that? don't beat yourself up about it,muscle weighs heavier than fat,are you bulking up with muscle instead? and there's the bacon thing? are you drinking fruit juice? did you know it was syns? what clothes did you wear to weigh in in? did that make sense?
don't get down hearted,you're not over heavy anyways (she says,i am similar to you and poor hubby had 'that' conversation this morning,"do i look fat in these shorts?")
keep your chin up and keep swaying your sexy a**e and maybe next week will be different?

I drink probably 6 pints of water a day plus another 1.5litres if at the gym.

I have been exercising this much for a while now so its not new.

Aunt Flo not due yet. I did wonder if it might be muscle but at what point does the weight come down? Surely I can't weigh this much forever - according to the weight chart thingys i am overweight!! Haven't had bacon all week but have had fruit juice but I have syned that. Oh well - onwards and upwards - just hopefully not outwards

JUst a thought... what are your measurements like?

I'm not losing much weight, but I have dropped a jeans size, and I even need a belt to keep those jeans up now.

Maybe it is more important how youe clothes fit, than what you weigh?

I am going to measure myself tomorrow and monitor that as well to see if I am loosing inches which would indicate I am gaining muscle. Thanks ladies, I think I am just dissapointed that my hard work isn't showing on the scales x
