Enjoy a taste of how Slimming World works with your
free 7-day menu
Sample the simplicity of Food Optimising with this deliciously filling 7-day meal plan – and get ready for a wonderful week-one weight loss!
Food Optimising in 3 easy steps...
Free Food
By filling up on unlimited Free Foods, you’ll naturally reduce your calorie intake for a great weight loss result. Choose from a huge range of foods, including lean meat and fish (or meat alternatives), fruit, veg, eggs, pasta, potatoes and rice.
Healthy Extras
Your measured daily Healthy Extra options – which include wholemeal bread, nuts, breakfast cereals, milk and cheese – provide a good balance of essential nutrients.
When you’re Food Optimising, you’ll choose two measured Healthy Extra ‘a’ options (for calcium) and one measured Healthy Extra ‘b’ choice (for fibre) each day.
Syns
Nothing is off limits! Foods that are higher in calories and less filling – such as chocolate and alcohol – are counted as Syns and enjoyed in measured amounts to keep your slimming journey on track.
Let’s get you started!
