teamrh : Most liked Posts

I've been gobsmacked reading these over the last couple of days and have joined purely for this discussion.

I joined Team RH in 2017 and it was honestly brilliant. Smallish group, loads of support (Rachael and Pete in particular), genuine coaching and food suggestions. The calorie clubs came along which really helped and were great communities. There were daily challenges for things like squats and burpees and it was great fun. The 80/20 rule made sense and was easy to follow - i always interpreted it as meaning if you eat nutrition dense food most of the time you don't need to sweat it about having a cake and coffee from time to time. I lost two stone reasonably quickly and although I had more to lose life got in the way and I left.

Finally feing motivated to do it again I rejoined last year and can't believe the change. There is zero content, no coaching, no fun in the community and the app is a joke. Richie was always a bit of dick but he's become a complete megalomaniac. What an eye opener. Actually can't wait to see it all come crashing down on him now.

Oh my god. I stumbled across this page by accident after becoming a bit disenfranchised from team rh (to say the least) in the past few weeks and I'm so glad I did.

I'm only just starting to get my life back after a few weeks of not following the 'plan' and I was only following it from January to July 2021! Yeah the teaching of calorie deficit is spot on but the way it is put across is so damaging. I've left with more issues with food than I've ever had.

I'm a 21 year old woman who now weighs less than i did when I was 15. I started having panic attacks when eating food and and I would have pure dread over birthdays and meals out. I've had 3 takeaways since January because OBVIOUSLY you're a fat waste of space if you dare have a takeaway and a pint with friends after a year of being in and out of lockdown (sarcasm).

I was practically forced to stop following team rh as my mam just said enough is enough, my mental health was wrecked and I was teetering on the edge of an eating disorder. Felt faint all the time. My skin was atrocious. Bones sticking out yet I still didnt feel slim enough. And those fat calliper readings can fuck right off!!!

The final icing on the cake was getting some rude/snotty comments from some of the hardcore members in the POD (where I used to post quite often but stopped as it's so cliquey like a school playground) and also when my comment was removed. I'd commented about how I was struggling mentally and how it's important to put mental health first rather than steps as I'd injured my knee, shoulder and ankle by forcing myself to do 15k steps each day and not giving myself a break. Sorry that this is so long I just needed to get this off my chest without being attacked by his minions. This bastard sucked me in and I was honestly brainwashed for a while. Glad I got out.

Just wanted to say thank you for all the nice comments after my post earlier. Can’t quote as the thread is locked.
Also I replied to Trust Pilots email to me advising them that they should look at his other responses to other people.
And replied to Team RHs email that they should stop hounding me for £13.98 for an app I’ve not used in months that didn’t work even when I did use it.
Also I have my works legal team going through all the information of me and other reviews etc and putting a file together for me for Trading Standards.

He went way too far last night. Way too far. I got off easily really compared to some people but it still doesn’t make it right at all to speak to people in such a manner. I’m stronger now it’s just annoys me but a year ago abuse like that would have broken me. He needs to be stopped!

Right I’ve worked my way through all the threads to here and opened an account. I’m cancelling my DD to them and when they email me I will screenshot the “punch her in the c***” message amongst others and send it to them as my reason. It’s not me they sent it to but it might as well be… I’m horrified, shocked and very very angry that they are taking my money whilst thinking and calling us c***s (I hate that word, I save it for special occasions only, like describing my ex husband ). Btw I’m a victim of domestic violence from two exes (I’m a bad picker!) so it really upsets me in other ways too.
