Feels like I have eaten a lot!

B - One slice wholemeal nimble bread (half HEX B), 5g butter, smoked salmon and a nectarine
L - Moroccan chicken (made with honey, tomato paste, ras el hanout and veg stock) with cous cous and broccoli
D - Roast chicken breast, 3 roast pots (sprayed with fry light), runner beans, broccoli and cauliflower, yorkshire pudding and gravy
S - One slice wholemeal nimble bread (other half HEX B), 5g butter, cheddar (HEX A)
Syns total (for butter, honey, gravy and yorkshire pudding) - 12

I'm stuffed! Am I supposed to have speed foods with my snacks too?

That’s so carb heavy!

ShirleyPhallus · 22/03/2018 19:44

Oh just seen this is in SW which I don’t understand, ignore me.....

Looks ok. If you are having 1/3rd speed on your plate then you don't need to constantly eat speed food if you are full. It's just meant to replace part of your portions.

Surely it's never good to eat so much until you feel stuffed?

Groovee · 23/03/2018 06:21

You should eat until full. But everyone is different in how much they need to feel full. But for some people they feel stuffed until they work out what size of portion they need.

Yes that's perfect :)

The idea is to fill 1/3rd of your plate with speed at every meal, so for snacks I would focus mainly on free food and speed food before you head for your syns as you may find free and speed food will fill you up more than, say a packet of crisps which will save your syns. I spend my syns within my meals and on healthy extra (I always want extra coffee so I have one coffee using my hexA then another coffee for 3 syns 175ml skimmed milk)

Thanks :) When I say stuffed I don't mean I ate till I felt sick! The only reason I ate the snack is because I hadn't managed to fit in a HEXA that day but I'll try and plan better in the future (I don't drink milk so can't use it for that).

I often have babybel lights in the fridge as 3 are a HE and can easily be consumed if you are trying to fit it in x

I would personally have had more speed food for B and L. I don't think a nectarine really counts as it was not â…“ speed food on your plate, but next to it (I assume you had it after?)
