It seems that we'll still have up to 3 HEXs a day but can choose the combination. I wonder if it's still 1 HEB and then you can double up or not on the other 2?🤔

I think it will be any of the 3, so you could have 3 fibre, 3 calcium or 3 fatty boom booms 🤣🤣 but if that's the case i can see people having a box of hi- fi's, or cereal for breakfast, sandwich for lunch and 2 hi- fi's as a snack then they will wonder why they are not losing weight!
£209 Maman, but better than i was expecting, any amount is too much, but like i said befoe it's old and got 160k on the clock and it's a work horse.
Food today, sausages don't look cooked 🤣 but they were they are the rosemary ones

Think we're going to have for the full details. Seems daft to me that they're announcing it now but not giving the details until mid December on the app and new books from New Year when it will officially start. Why not introduce it now.
When I first started SW you were able to have a Tbs of olive oil as HEB but after a couple of years it changed and you weren't allowed to have it without syncing it again.

tbh i think they are struggling Denise because of the jabs and people really really slate SW on fb a lot , only because they don't understand it!Sealed pot challenge number 003 £350 for 2015, 2016 £400 Actual£345, £400 for 2017 Actual £500:T:T £770 for 2018 £1295 for 2019:j:j spc number 22 £1,457Stopped Smoking 22/01/15:D:D::dance::dance:- 5 st 1 1/2lb :dance::dance:0

Don't do Facebook anymore so not seen anything about it being slated but I agree people don't understand anything except calorie counting! That is something I was never going to do and still won't.0

I remember having olive oil as a heb choice too. I’m pleased they’re including avocado. Always felt wrong that it was synned the same as a bar of chocolate. It’ll be interesting to know exact how the new scheme works.
i had a lovely birthday and the celebrations with various folk have gone on for days. I draw the line tomorrow and will start back on plan properly. I don’t think I’ve gone too far off piste but I haven’t counted anything. I now have batteries in my scales so will weigh myself on Thursday again. I’m going to a wedding in a months time and would like my dress to be a little less snug 👍🤞🤞January spends - £587.580 -
I also think that they are struggling big time & it's anything to get bums on seats including actively encouraging people who are taking weight loss jabs to join which i personally think is morally wrong.I am a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on Mortgage Free Wannabe & Local Money Saving Scotland & Disability Money Matters.

I think many people are looking for a quick fix and the jabs are even quicker and easier than crash diets.
But like crash diets (and those who think of SW as a diet), unless you are willing to stay with it and establish lifelong healthy eating habits then the weight will come back on.
Perhaps it's early days for those who've lost weight with the jabs to discover they won't work long-term. My understanding is that you're supposed to use them to get to a healthy weight and then switch to healthy eating. Perhaps SW should think more about helping people to maintain as well as losing. 🤔0 -
We are still having roughly the same through pay, we have between 50-57 normally , but the group after us is only about 10, surely it is not worth her time and money paying for the room, don't know why she don't combine it?
As far as i am aware we have no one on jabs as we was talking about them a couple of weeks ago and every one was against themSealed pot challenge number 003 £350 for 2015, 2016 £400 Actual£345, £400 for 2017 Actual £500:T:T £770 for 2018 £1295 for 2019:j:j spc number 22 £1,457Stopped Smoking 22/01/15:D:D::dance::dance:- 5 st 1 1/2lb :dance::dance:0 -
My old consultant is actively trying to recruit people on the jabs. Probably as the numbers have dropped so much the group may have to close.I am a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on Mortgage Free Wannabe & Local Money Saving Scotland & Disability Money Matters.
