Another sp question

May be a stupid question but with extra easy sp the s stands for speed food and the p for protein? And what about syns are you allowed any?or do you just have to eat free foods, speed foods and protein? I asked at group last night but the lady who runs it was anything but helpful!

  • Yes in fact you get 1 healthy extra a and 2 healthy extra b plus your usual 5-15 syns. Crap that your consultant isn't helpful.
  • Can you still use two Hifi bars as a healthy extra b. I know so annoying especially when you pay each week.
  • Yes any healthy b you want. X
  • This is quite worrying that it's not been explained well to you at all.

    S - speed food
    P - protein
    F - fibre

    On extra easy you are allowed 1 x healthy extra A and 1 x healthy extra B and 5-15 syns per day.

    You should have a minimum of 5 syns per day. In the beginning I thooght aiming for 0 syns was a good thing but acruelly it's all about a balanced diet/lifestyle so some people actually find they lose less weight if they don't have their syns.
  • Sorry for the crap typos!!!!!
  • Thanks for you help x
  • Also, on sp days you're not supposed to have free stuff like Muller yoghurts etc, you should have synned ones instead.

    All a bit complicated for me so just sticking with extra easy for the moment xx
  • when I have an sp day I stick to 'no carbs' rule, so no potatoes, rice, pasta etc, I also don't have parsnips, grapes, bananas etc as these aren't s or p foods. I usually eat eggs, salad, meat and veg for meals ie roast chicken and veg, ham salad, omlette etc and snack on fruit with the s symbol ie strawberries, melon, orange, etc. I use my syns for a chocolate muller light, hot chocolate, coleslaw or mayo or salad dressing, etc. I have weetabix and milk for my hex a and b and have a hi-fi bar with a cuppa for my second hexb. If you make sure you stick to the 50/50 s and p foods for meals and check your book to make sure your choices are defintely s and p foods you'll do fine. I did 5 sp days last week and lost 4lbs so ime it does work.hth xxx
