right found what I wanted (thank you crunchie!!)
OK Here goes, Crunchies definative guide to Slimming WOrld.
It is not food combining, it is 'food optimising' if you want to believe the hype. Basically it has Red and Green days and they work as follows:
Red Day
Free Food - eat as much as you want cooked without added fat (also trim all fat off before cooking, although you can leave skin on poultry, just don't eat it)
- All Red Meat
- all Poultry
- all Fish
- all shellfish
- Bacon and some sausages
- eggs, very low fat Cottage cheese, VLF natural yoghurt, VLF Fromage Frais, Quorn
- all vegetables, excluding potatoes, sweetcorn, parsnips
- all fruit, including bananas
Healthy Extras - measured quantities of foods designed to give you added calcium, vitamins etc. You can choose one milk option, one cheese option and two others.
- Milk, for instance 250 ml of semi-skimmed
- cheese, approx 28g of most cheeses or more of low fat ones
- bread, 57g of wholemeal bread (2 slices of SMALL loaf, or small roll)
- breakfast cereal, 2 weetabix or approx 30g of lots of high fibre cereals
- 8oz potato (jacket), or 7oz new potatos (in skins)
- 2oz of wholemeal pasta
- various different crispbreads, cooked fruit, soups etc.
Lastly SYNS
EVerything else has a sin value and you can eat approx 10 sys a day
- 1 small glasses wine (5 sins)

Now you can try Green days, BUT YOU CANNOT MIX THEM IN ONE DAY!!

- 6oz chicken
- 6oz prawns
You can have one milk choice, one cheese choice and 2 others such as cereal and a 'protien'
Syns
As before everything else!!
Thats the basics. However on top of this load of free food there are loads of other things that are free like Baked Beans on a green day and certain susages on red.
Lastly to help you understand I will give you a red day and a green day
