Experience of SW, Extra Easy

Evelina, 30 May, 2009 at 21:23 Posted on Beauty & Wellbeing 0 9

I'm three days into my first week at slimming world, and so far it's been OK. I've been doing Extra Easy, and using about 8 of my syns each day

I've heard that by doing Red or Green days I might be more likely to have a good weight loss, is this true, and does anyone have positive stories to tell of Extra Easy?

TIA, Rebecca

    I was doing extra easy (Been a bit rubbish since going on hol but back to it now!) I lost a stone in 5 or so weeks, was really pleased, found it so so easy and lost every week!!!! I didnt want t paln that took over my life and ending up thinking about what I was going to eat next so this is ideal, freash, healthy, unprocessed food, and I really feel I can maintain it!(Except fro my hol and being really baad, oops!!!!)

    Keep going, you should have a good weight loss on your first week and it will keep you goign into the next week!!!!

    Bacically, everything that is free on a red or green day, is totally free and can be eaten together in the same meal, all day. So maet and pasta can be eaten together. You then have 1 healthy extra a and b rather than 2 on the normal plan./ You still get your 5-15 syns a day. Syn wise, you take the lower value for extra easy between red and green.

    I think its fab, its very easy and basically healthy eating and cooking good healthy meals!

    Thanks Sunny Day, I think I'll have to go along to a meeting to get the gumpf and see if I can settle into it, I've been doing weighwatchers and come to a bit of a plateau and need to get it shifting again.

    Hello, I have been going to SW since 1st April and have lost consistently, am now 1 st 2 lb lighter than I was. I have been doing a mix of extra easy and red/green days. I have found it to be fairly easy and straight forward, obv there are times when you would like to eat things you shouldn't but with some forward planning and preparing things yourself you can find alternatives to most things. In our group there people doing a mixture of both and all seem to be getting good weight loss so far. Good luck and give a shot, I think if you start positive and believing you can do it you will see success. x

    Thanks for the feedback ladies

    It's weigh day tomorrow, so time will tell. So far I've found it pretty easy to stick with the plan & have managed to keep under 10 syns each day without feeling deprived.

    Theres a lady in our class who has been doing extra easy since she joined 8 weeks ago and she has lost nearly 2 stone. I've been mostly following green days with a few extra easy thrown in and lost 7 lb in my first 3 weeks.

    I think a lot of the people who have been doing it a while, or have done red/green before, dont believe it will work as its so different but it obviously does!

    Good luck with your weigh in.x

    Oh Evelina good luck. I want to start slimming world again. My friend is going on holiday on saturday for three weeks so she said she will start with me when she comes back.

    The extra easy sounds much better for me so fingers crossed it works, I shall have to keep up with your progress Smiley smile

    I luuuuv EE. Its great. I've been doing SW for a while and when EE came out in January I started following it and have not looked back since. It is just sooo much easier to follow I think. Especially since I love my SpagBol lol....however some girls in my group don't like it and don't seem to be losing on it, so they just switch back to red and green....I guess everyone is different
