Hi Honey, I think I will go with 5 for Feb too, I feel quite worn out at the moment and actually under pressure to keep going.
Likewise I think i should say I will try to rethink my exercise regime, as I dont want to overdo it. But I recognise that my exercise allows for my transgressions.
Last of the Chilli, Leek and Potato soup today. Which one should I try next?

Curly Wurlys!!!! And those wee Freddo bars!!! Still "proper" chocolate, but low in points.
How much water do you drink a day?

Its something I'm trying to improve on, along with the whole 5 portions of fruit & veg a day thing... But am still working on it!0 -
Edimew wrote:Morning,
Ok so I got out my back issues of SW magazine and a pen and paper and worked out healthy extras etc. Pretty straight forward but I've a couple of questions if you don't mind.
Eggs - Are they free on either day?
Mullerlight - is this a free food or a healthy extra?
Very low fat cottage cheese - again free food or HE?
Wholemeal bread - a HE but never a free food
Rice and pasta - Free on green but never a HE.
If someone could clear that up for me I'll be all set
Hello Edimew - I think I can help you with the answers.
Eggs are free on both red and green days.:j
Mullerlites are free but the "cake" ones such as lemon cheesecake etc. that have little bits of cake in are 1.5 sins I believe.
Very low fat cottage cheese is a free food on both days:j
Wholemeal bread - correct - its a HE
Rice and Pasta - yes it is free food on green days but can be used as a HE on red days.
Hope this helps!

Ditto thank you as it says last weeks which is 8.5 lb but lost 3 lb this week so it should say 11. 5 lb many thanks:j0 -
Lois, please put me down for losing the 2½lbs I somehow managed to gain last week. Congrats to those with such great losses this week, but for anyone who hasn't done as well as they hoped, keep plugging away - it'll happen if you stick with it.
Suggs do go easy with the exercise, the weight will come off without flogging yourself to death. I've just posted a recipe for Lancashire Hotpot you may enjoy
Welcome to slowlyfading, I look forward to getting to know you over the coming months.
Edimew and Retiredlady rice can't be used as a HEB on red days because it doesn't have enough fibre in it. Also if you have pasta on red days, it must be wholemeal.
Midget your weekend sounds gorgeous. I love Wales!
Iceicebaby I hope you're feeling better by now.
Alyssa, sad to see you were ill, I wonder what brought it on. Hope the SAS log helps - they're very good, but take lots of honesty to work well!
Well done to IFA too - sounds like you've got it sussed.
Right off to work then straight on to class. Byeee:wave:I let my mind wander and it never came back!0
