    I am sooooo close to that elusive 1 Stone!
    Had my WI last night and lost another 1.5lbs, so total loss is now 13lbs!:j :j :j
    The great thing I don't really feel like I am suffering a "diet" as I have done with previous plans.

    Good luck to everyone this weekend! (I always find weekends the hardest to be good...) Must remember to hide the bottle opener... :cool:

    Well done we're both chasing that 1 stone award, I have 2 lb to go though,I wish sometimes my mouth had a zipper on it, with little padlock attached just for weekends!!:rotfl:

    Hi all - congrats to everyone who's lost this week! :beer:

    I was just wondering - is it normally the case that people tend to lose more in the first few weeks and then only 1/2lbs after that?

    I have lost 9.5lbs in 3 weeks - 5lbs first week, 3lbs second week and 1.5lbs in 3rd week....

    Well, IMO the Light ones are lovely and the extra light are disgusting!!! :rotfl:

    I think you are allowed 5 Light or 6 Extra Light as a HEB. I tend to buy the boxes of 16 and just have 4 so they last 4 days!!

  • you can have syns but you have to take the highest syn value. so say it is 1.5 syns on green but 8 syns on red you have to count it as 8 syns. i think that's right anyway. mix 2 match is a bit confusing for me!

    ooh I dont understand it! best to leave it for now and stick to red and green for a bit!

    Mix to Max does take some getting your head round - basically each meal rather than each day is either red or green.

    So, basically, say you have a green lunch, you could have a red dinner. But this only applies to your main course, if you have a starter or dessert you have to Syn it if it's not a Superfree food or one of your Healthy Extras.

    Anything else you eat has to be Synned at its highest value. So say you had something that would be 5 Syns on Green or 25 on Red, you'd have to count it as 25.

    It does make for a bit of variety but I wouldn't recommend trying it until you're totally to grips with the Red & Green philisophy!!!
