Veggies and the new plan

Any veggies seen the new packs?

I've always done green days, never done extra easy.

I'm struggling to work out what I'm going to eat and where to fit in things like quorn syn free products.

And only 1 healthy A and B !!!!!

I've heard a lot about these new packs but I won't be getting mine until Friday. I do EE and I'm not veggie, and I do struggle with just one B choice.

If you follow green on the old plan its not going to stop working if you still follow it using an old book is it?
Quorn and veggie mince is still free on ee as its been since they bought in the plan.

Like I said I've never done extra easy, so it's not just a case switching from the old EE to the new one.

I thought there might be a few veggies on here for a discussion.

I like the old plans, base most of my days around green using 2 a choices milk & cheese for lunch, and 2 b choices 2 bread and 1 ptn meat or fish.
There doesn't seem to be many up for any discussion of anything lately, its really quiet. I like the discussion threads too.x

Maybe once everyone has had the new pack and the talk people will want to chat, I'm surprised there aren't any threads on it yet.

I haven't got my pack yet, but I do green because I don't eat meat.

I'm not very happy at the idea of doing anything else tbh, I might just ignore it and carry on as I was.

I got my new pack this week and also wondered about veggie options. I should have asked but our group was so overawed by the new SP that I didn't get chance.

I must admit that I sat there, listening all negatively, thinking that I wouldn't change from my usual constant 'green' days. I haven't read the pack yet to find out if we can still have 2 HEAs and HEBs daily.

I'll ask properly at our next meeting.

Follow the plan your best with.
Ee is as it was. The ee sp plan focuses on 1 a & 2 bs, all the free veg & protein including quorn veggie substitutes. But limits pasta rice & potatoes. These aren't classed as speed foods as are some fruits.
To me it sounds like the red plan using your 2bs for fibre choices. If you see what I mean.

MrsLindor · 01/01/2015 21:27

I'm going to try EE for a couple of weeks and see how it goes, we're having the talk next week but it does seems fairly straightforward.

Lunches at work will be a challenge getting 1/3 speed but I'm thinking I'll reinstate my desk fruit bowl which will help. Leftovers warmed up in the micro maybe.

I'll definitely use more syns using them for cheese :)

As a veggie planning to join SW this year. I just purchased the 2014 plan instead and will be following the green days. If it ain't broke don't fix it as they say! Just carry on as if it was still last year ??

Hi I'm new here. I joined Slimming World - again - last week. I've always had green days but this time I decided to eat more protein to feel full for longer so the new EE will suit me. I've been doing EE sp and haven't been hungry or craved anything sweet. I've still got all my old books so would swap back to green if I ever wanted to, but at the moment I'm happy. I was disappointed at the change in HE at only 1 x a and b but on the EEsp you can have a x 1 and b x2 which is enough for me :)

I've just become vegetarian and follow SW.

If you're a veggie then extra easy will be very similar to green days, but with just one HEa and one HEb. Also, you can't use cheese an a HEb on EE. Tbh, I do syn extra cheese, but if I had had all my syns then if just probably sneak the extra cheese as another HE as that would have been allowed on green. On busy if I stopped losing then I'd have to change it.
