Thoughts on Slimming World plan CHANGES
Just got out of weigh in (update on that on the blog tomorrow 8am), and I've digested the changes to the Slimming World plan that were discussed during image therapy.
(FYI I cannot wait for the updated member pack that will launch in between Christmas and New Year's Eve weigh ins).
This appears to be the general gist of it:
1. Two HExAs per day (YAY for milk in porridge AND cheese with dinner)
2. Baked beans, broad beans, mung beans, and all varieties of peas (except split peas) have lost their Protein "P" symbol!
3. Whole Milk allowance for HExA has gone from 150ml to 200ml.
4. Rice & Almond milk allowance for HExA have decreased to 400ml.
5. Paneer is now a HExA (40g).
6. Healthy Extras no more: Special K Milk Choc Delight Bar; Sweetened Dairy-free milk, Philly (I weep), and soft goat's cheese.
7. On an Extra Easy SP day, enjoy at least half a plate of Speed food, and the rest Protein-rich food as usual. However now it is only one HExB (not two) and to boost weight loss further, a maximum of 10 Syns per day.
Well 😑
Not going to lie, I'm a tad gutted about losing philly as a healthy extra, thankfully they're reasonably low in syns so I will continue to have them, I'll just count the syns for it. Beans losing the "P" symbol has not surprised me, especially with spaghetti hoops losing their "free" status a few weeks ago. This will only bother me if I decide to do an SP day.
Lastly...I am SO glad that they have reviewed SP days!!! I tried two solid weeks of Extra Easy SP last year and I ended up gaining weight! I had all 15 syns most days (as allowed) and also the two HExBs. I have said in group after my negative experience that if I ever did it again I would only have one HExB like normal and try to limit syns and not go near the 15 total.
A lot of people in group were disgruntled by the changes, however when these things happen I choose to have faith that Slimming World are looking out for my best interest and my weight loss.
If things were never researched and changed we'd still be on Red and Green days!
Here's to more calcium in the diet!!
