Bexstars

Good morning everyone

Billee the muller light yogs are syn free

h007 thanks for the info on the superfrees, I have been counting corn on the cob and peas as superfree

WI for me tonight, think I have done ok this week so crossing fingers for a loss, I go away on friday for a week so will miss next weeks WI, were staying in a cottage in northumberland so were taking food with us, hopefully this means I can stay on plan and we will be out walking loads

going green today

HEA milk for teas and bfast
bfast - 28g honey nut shredded wheat HEB (bought this for a change but you only get about 10 squares for 28g) and a banana

Lunch - no idea yet

Dinner - will do something light after WI, I never fancy eating much late at night so maybe scrambled egg, mushrooms and a quorn sausage

Snacks - will have a alpen light mid afternoon as my second HEB, fruit and yoghurt and a dime bar tonight after weigh in

Hope you all hav a good day

Bettyb do you have the packet details, just searched for tortellini under Lidl and it cant find it

Has anyone noticed an increased hair loss since doing Slimming World? I've been quite concerned at a big increase in the amount of hair I loose when washing it and when I check my diary its since I started Slimming World

Skin seems better, less spots but the hair thing is horrendous !

we had this discussion in class last night actually. a lady was eating loads of lentil and parsnip soup thinking it was superfree but again neither of those are and she wasnt loosing weight.

I've been eating loads of lentil soup - it is free on green though isnt it? Its HM stock, lentils, swede, leeks and carrots. Really hope its free because i love it!

10 Syns per package/portion on Extra Easy 10 Syns per package/portion on Green 31 Syns per package/portion on Original

Would love someone to check this though, first time I have used the calculator so not sure if I have done it right, it asked if there was any free food?? so I selected fresh uncooked pasta then put all the details in on the per serving tab

sorry bettyb not sure how accurate this is, without adding the free food bit it was coming out at 31 syns on all plans which I didnt think would be right

Thanks. No worries about being 100% accurate, I'll only have a tiny bit and give my OH 2/3rds of the packet, then load my plate up with tom sauce and veg.

Could you do me a favour and just see if there is any other spinach and riccotta tortellini listed (tescos or sainsbury's own, for example) - then maybe I can just use that as a guide
thanks

yes lentils are free but for those doing ee they are not SUPERfree so dont count as your 'third of the plate'

hope that makes sense, alot of people were very confused by it in class last night.

however the swede, leeks and carrots are superfree so i think that combo would be fine on ee anyway

I am not sure how the green plan works so cant really advise you on that sorry


(ps - baby sweetcorn IS superfree)

Nearest I could find on either tesco, sainsburys or morrisons was this one
