When I'm on the so sp days I have either eggs or beans (sometimes both) on toast (heb) for breakfast, fruit and yoghurt for dinner, and for tea I do stews, casseroles, or just bolognese with out the pasta, chilli without rice, slimming world sausage and carrot and swede mash. Burgers are good too, as you can have two heb and have a muffin as the heb.

yogurts need to be synned ones not free ones on SP plan (not entirely sure why tbh but they are)

Just make sure that 50% of your plate truly is protein source or you'll get hungry!

just remembered why re yoghurts - they aren't speed or protein. Thats why they need synning. Arla protein pots are quark based though so they are ok to use, as is quark itself, with something to sweeten it. the Arla are 1-1.5 syn depending which flavour.

What does sp stand for

S for Speed, P for protein, you only eat these plus healthy extras.

I found the slimming mama blog myslimmingworldblog.blogspot.co.uk/search/label/Meal%20Plans?m=1
Helpful for sp meal plans, she has lost nearly 9 stone following EESP

The SW website advises having a free yogurt rather than a synned one if you really want one. But better to avoid them and have quark or cottage cheese which are Protein

FoofFighter · 21/01/2016 10:57

Ahhh I see it - that's if you do the plan long term, not applicable to odd days or weeks here and there

Thanks for all the tips and the links. I think this is exactly what I need.


I'm a bit confused about heb - can you have wholemeal bread ? Or should it be a heb with sp written by it eg. ryvita (yuk)

It's in the questions and answers bit in the extra easy sp feature.

The HeB don't need to be speed choices, but will get faster weight loss if you choose them . 1 hi fi instead of 2 for example!

Yogurts are a no no on sp. they recommend not having them at all free or synned.
They say if you can't go without a free on is okay but for a proper sp day you shouldn't have yogurt.

Oh I can't go without yoghurt with my fruit on sp days, fills me up more than just having fruit. My consultant said I should be ok with just one muller light with my fruit on an sp day, given what I would have for breakfast/tea, being speed meals. So technically I have a mostly sp day lol,
Im not right keen on quark. Minging on its own with fruit even with sweetner added. I only use it for making carbonara really, use it instead of fromage frais sometimes.

On sp days i have been having the greek yogurt and syning it at 0.5 each....i would keep away from mullerlight as that has no syn value.
i did 4 sp days this week, 2 normal ee days and 1 day with 1/2 of it off plan..im also on star week and i only lost 0.5 this week

I start my SP days off with an all-day breakfast to try and fill myself up as much as possible. I wrote about it here: listsforlifeblog.com/2016/01/19/6-slimming-world-friendly-breakfasts-you-can-make-in-10-minutes/

Other than that a Shepard's pie made with swede and carrot mash goes down well later in the day.

franno1990 had a read, i also do the overnight oats but never tried it with muller, always tend to be a bit dull and go for the natural yogurt and add the sweetener
i have been eating some melon for brekkie last couple of weeks

No yogurts on SP synced or otherwise if you can't live without yogurt do ee but.boost it with sp meals. If you're getting hungry you're doing it wrong half the plate protein half the plate Speed plus 2 b choices is really filling. I do one or two days a week when I've had a naughty weekend and it usually gets me back on track, if I want a yogurt I make sure not to have the second b then it's just a nice speedy ee day.

My fave sp meal is baked cod on a bed of puny lentils with roastedcherry tomatoes and broccoli. Veg soups are great snacks as well and I bulk them up with lentils/mixed beans

My consultant said we can still have syns on sp days, is that what others have been told?

Report
lighteningirl · 28/01/2016 21:54

You can have syns but you can't syn a Free Food so 1/2 syn yogurt is still a yogurt so not allowed on a proper SP day

FoofFighter · 29/01/2016 14:39

lots of conflicting info there, just go by what your own consultant says I guess.
