I’ve always wondered about those things 😅 I couldn’t bare having just a shake but even the meals seem small 

I wasn’t sure if you meant the products or services lol 

Nope, no reason to judge if it helps them.  

I know I'm terrible but sometimes it sounds ludicrous. Like, someone posted their dinner on Facebook, and they said 'Syn free'. I swear there was chips on there and I'm thinking, girl, I can't eat a baby potatoes without it affecting my calorie count. 

I find if I do baked potato or chips in oven (low fat iceland ones 200g) comes of me better than boiling potatoes, I think it's they soak up water when Boiled and it just sticks with me longer.  

A friend of mine just did a 9 day detox thing (cost her nearly £100!) She lost 7lbs but has put 5 back on already!Sounds crazy to me but she does it every 6 months or so. Each to their own eh? 

It works. I follow slimming world and calorie count alongside. I've lost over 10 stone 🤷‍♀️ 

I've tried slimming world and felt like it didnt work I over ate and never lost much and felt restricted as I eat out alot. I know loads it's worked for think each to their own but calorie counting is better for me  

Yes! I always feel like it’s a business first and foremost and works short term so people go back to it time and again. Obviously it does have merits and works for some people but I always think people are paying for something that seems more complicated than common sense 😬🤷‍♀️ 

I tried Jane’s plan. A week was enough the food wasn’t pleasant and I was hungry. I prefer lots of healthy fresh food. Oh and I gained weight. 

I don’t believe in any of them diets I eat healthy and about every 3 months I intend to eat ice cream or something and I do then I lose it straight away 

I tried slimming world but failed as they said I could eat as much pasta as I wanted as I really could eat plates of the stuff 😆 

I tried slimming world a couple of years ago, I lost 1/2 a stone which at the time I only needed to lose to be healthy. Unfortunately I couldn't keep up with cooking from scratch (and some of the recipes didn't taste that good after all that) but when I went on to My knd of 'normal' I figured I put more weigh on and I couldn't get it off. Them days though I didn't eat takeaways! In fact nothing up to now as worked for me, but then again I don't stick to anything long enough x 

Happy bunch today on here lol 

ive done both previously put a stone on with SW lost 2.5 stone with WW but you find ur eating same thing all the time . Like FS much better i plan my daily intake and log everything no matter what it is got another 12lb to ho to get to my target. Ive been 11 stone and look ill want to keep a bit of tinder on.  

I did do. Slimming world a couple of years ago and l lost about 5 stone. Like anything it works if you want it hard enough to do it. I did like slimming world and it worked for me last time. Had something personhappen to me that made me look at life differently for a while and didn't really think about my weight to much. The thing that put me off rejoing was l didn't want to pay the weekly subs hence why l am doing it this time With support on here. Calorie counting and exercise again. I have set myself new goals and l am aiming for the sky. I know with the support we give each other in here and family and friends we can do this. So let's all do this together. What works for 1 does not always work for everyone. Good luck all.  

I've heard a lot of ups and downs with it. I know some who managed to come off SW and WW and keep the weight off. But then others keep going back to them because they put the weight on. I don't like the franchises too much either. 

Each to their own. I think anything will work if you stick to it, for me it doesnt matter what plan you are on its about changing your attitude to food for the long run.
