Doesn’t want Dave eating loads of processed food and sugars and then advertises this....?Fibre One with natural yoghurt and strawberries, all for 90 calories. So, by that calculation, the yoghurt and strawberries must be calorie free no wonder she’s piling it on even though she’s ‘dieting’
Someone tried to convince me to do it recently (because I said I need to lose weight) and when I looked at what you can eat I was horrified. NOT healthy at all.That is the problem with slimming world - nobody needs to eat 5 yogurts in a bowl but because it’s “free” it’s supposedly fine...
It is IF you follow it properly. Lots of instagrammers and consultants do not advertise the plan properly and with people like Kate with binging issues it’s not the best suited plan as they eat unlimited ‘free’ food. The plan is to eat until you are full, not keep going as food is free.Someone tried to convince me to do it recently (because I said I need to lose weight) and when I looked at what you can eat I was horrified.

And it’s false advertising because it reads like the whole dessert is just 90 calories.I hate those ads which are clearly press photos. That’s not her work surface! It really gets on my nerves that she thinks her followers are so thick they’ll buy this shite
THIS!!!!! If you follow the influencers/instagrammer version of SW then no, it isn’t healthy and it doesn’t work. However, if you follow the 3 pretty basic steps as they are intended and focus on “eating until satisfied” then it does work. By filling up on low calorie “free” foods, fruit & veg you will put yourself into a calorie deficit which we all know is the “secret” to weight loss.It is IF you follow it properly.

This ! I lost 5 stone on the plan in the day’s before Instagram was a thing - I’m still at that target weight 5 years on & that’s because I follow the plan not the instragammers version of the plan ! They crack me up with the fake cakes for breakfast etcTHIS!!!!! If you follow the influencers/instagrammer version of SW then no, it isn’t healthy and it doesn’t work.

On social media, there is too much emphasis on the best use of syns (my consultant puts it perfectly “you can have upto 15syns a day, your not going to get any awards & nobody is going to applaud you If you use them all everyday, but they are there if you need them”), calorific fakeaways and the “amazing puddings” that only use your HEB & 12syns that look good on a photo but actually taste like tit - just use your syns on a real piece of cake once in a while instead of these horrid creations every bloody night FFS, that everyone losses sight of the actual basic principles of the plan.
Totally agree....all the tweaks are just not needed. That's the whole point of sw you're changing your lifestyle so they say, not looking for ways to cheat the plan.This !
