Slimming World #3

[Sunflower16]

Why do so many sw members do stupid things like this! I have found an account that eats normal food finally!!!

Please share if you don't mind!
I was on a zoom for SW a few weeks ago and someone mentioned Tweaks. The lady giving the session was not impressed so I'm assuming the actual SW group is not happy with these and not what the plan is about and it seems its more their "ambassadors" and consultants are doing the tweaking!

Yes, i do SW at the moment and my consultant is always preaching against tweaks, she also reminds people that SW is basically CC in a more flexible easier way. And always be mindful of portion sizes. She is really good compared the lot i met before her. Lol

I did sw back in 2018/2019. I know a few crappy consultants along the way. This one is quite good. She knows nutrition pretty well.

If I see one more bleeping weetabix 'cheesecake' on my insta feed i'm gonna scream.

If you're looking to tweak it, you're basically looking to cheat the rules to suit you. I don't understand why people sign up to it if they're just going to look for ways to eats things that are not recommended. Seems like nutty behaviour to me I did sw when it was red and green days and I think it changed for the worst when they came up with Extra Easy

The sheer efforts they go to to make these absolutely crazy and disgusting concoctions would make me think ... nah fook that

I still think anyone who’s brainwashed by that money machine of a cult is off their rocker. Not sorry.

I lost the will when I had gained one week. I said I had not eaten anything 'off plan'.
Consultant asked had I eaten all my healthy extras and syns.
I said no.
She said thats why I had gained. I wasn't eating enough.
Because obviously forcing myself to eat 40g of low fat cheddar on wholemeal bread to get my healthy extras in at the end of the day was the secret to weightloss.

Pure madness to think of that. I remember a lady in group 2 weeks ago claiming her gain was because she had 0 syns all week. The consultant told her then i should see a 10lb loss then not 3lb gain, be honest lizzy. Lol at the end of the day if i tell what lizzy ate that week, your tummy will burst laughing.

I had this with one of my consultants. I was on 25 syns a day as I was massively overweight. But I rarely had them. She told me I should be using at least 20 syns if I want to lose faster.. That's an extra 400 calories a day if its on chocolate. Even more calories if its on other things that are lower syns for the calories.

The consultants never seem to have any actual idea about nutrition. I knew someone that led a group and they said they were shocked at how minimal the training was.

These fine example of the onplan (or not so) meals were posted by the my local areas team developer and most popular consultant..says its all really.
And no way she took that fat off.

I really don’t miss SW. it had its place in my life but I think when you start questioning things you can never go back. I was never very adventurous with food and it did make me cook from a scratch and try new stuff and for that I will always be thankful for but the tweaks etc are just

Same here. I did lose quite a bit of weight on it but I think in the end it wasn't sustainable for me and it felt so restrictive. I put it back on in the end after a year of binge eating and wondering why I couldn't get my head back in SW. I tried going back to a group last year but the cult mentality at the group did my head in.

Calorie counting and gym now is doing it better for me personally.
