thanks scavo, that's since middle of september and I did not really follow the plan for 4 weeks over xmas hols etc...
I was a bit thrown at first, kept thinking must be doing something wrong as felt like was eating loads, but when you look at it, it's all v low fat/fat free and stuff that fills you up but is processed/fatty/sugary
i love turkey rashers, poached eggs and quorn sausages with mushrooms, jacket potatoes with tuna & a tbsp of salad cream, poached salmon and huge salad and rice.
loads of fat free yogs, fruit & veg and fruit tea
i make a lot of syn free soup as it is v filling and make sure always fruit and low syn stuff to pick at ..
and some nights when i feel like i'll eat everything in sight, i go to bed !! out of the way of temptation
top tip is just go for it ! read the book, do a general meal plan for each day so you're not left without a good meal /snack for when you're hungry and don't let other people sabotage you....
you can eat out and make different choices.. ie i always had lasagne or the like with garlic bread etc when went out to eat or something cheesy and hi cal.. now i have green salad to start, ignore the garlic bread and have spaghetti with some sort of tomato based sauce... and eat slowly.
and if oyu have a bad day, then draw a line under it and start again the next day or evne the next meal
it does work IME and i found after a couple of weeks, i was not really missing biccies etc..
good luck !!!!
