Not slimming world but does anyone follow Loseweightwithkate_. Her Insta following is small compared to her TikTok but literally so many followers for a weight loss account and she doesn’t look like she loses anything
She’s like another Gemma B, has gone from being big to slightly less big and now she thinks she’s an expert 🙄 Obviously losing a stone or two is a great achievement and better for your health but why are these people trying to make out they’re super slimmers and trying to build a brand based on that, posting ads/ aff links and giving advice when they still need to lose several stones to be healthy. Absolute desperados. Gemma’s cookbook takes the absolute mick!

Snares journey as a consultant lasted a year. And he seemed to get progressively bigger.

I got slimmer of the month when I was close to my 9 stone award.
But someone else got it for losing 3lbs less than me.
My consult came up to me after and said "You've had plenty of slimmer of the months. I thought we should give it to someone else"
It's like they make it up as they go along...

I left my group, and the group I'm in now, the difference in consultants is absolutely staggering. My old one clearly didn't give a toss amd looking back you can see it all the more, my new consultant once covered my old group and I knew when I left that I wanted to join their group. The week they covered, I made a comment on our facebook group about how lovely the covering consultant was, and every week after that, it was like I was belittled for saying how nice they were.

So me changing to the group I'm at now and changing my target again is a fuck you to my old consultant more than anything 😄🙈

They try to look on plan so they'll get a share of followers from SW new year starters joining IG (though this amount gets smaller every year).
Discovering SW Insta was my undoing the first time I did SW, I was looking at all the piles of beige food thinking what have I been doing focusing on including loads of veg and replacing rice with cauliflower rice etc. Then you soon discover it’s all a sham when your losses grind to a halt.

Loving Lauren back with a “fresh mindset” for the umpteenth time…
it was only about 3 weeks ago she had another restart?

I wondered where she went! I personally don’t believe in go fund me for surgery for skin removal etc. I get you've done really well but it’s not for anyone else to pay for. I could do with a tummy tuck but wouldn’t dream of fundraising for it. As people in the past have done this and regained the weight back. Jack Towers, a prime example
anyone that begs for ANYTHING online should be ashamed.

I personally think he is doing really well with the calorie counting and hope he is able to stick with it long term. He seems to be taking a much healthier approach than when he was SWing.
He's still following the same behavioural patterns as he was when he was doing sw... he won't post any food he considers bad, he goes days without posting which usually means he's binging. I have to say tho, why on earth is he awarding himself slimming world certificates? I find that so damaging to people that follow him who also do sw who think they can eat all the processed shit he does and lose weight on sw.

I think his group was underperforming as in lack of members and the area manager didn't rush to his aid like he expected they would or they were blunt told him maybe gaining weight back was the reason.
Whatever happened its because someone didn't kiss his arse like he expected.
his now what appears to be former friend shaun (who is another absolute cretinous individual who also shouldn't be a consultant) who he was doing man vs fat with now runs the groups he was.. and they no longer follow one another and they've even joined different man vs fat teams, I mean it's hardly ronaldo leaving man utd or messi leaving barcelona is it, but something happened...

72% said that calorie counting takes away the freedom to enjoy food?

But slimming world doesn't?
Calorie counting where you can eat anything.. Slimming world where you're restricted to free foods?
Where your only option when eating out is a jacket potato and beans.
They're having a laugh, we all know the pain of going out for dinner when you're on sw, and sitting there with a jacket potato and steak, while everyone else has whatever they fancy and refusing a pudding

The trying to stretch your syns into a treat plate, developing a fear of white bread. It's absurd

I quit SW this week & it was definitely because of this thread!👏🏼

Yesterday was my usual SW group day and already have a text from the consultant asking if everything is ok… i have ignored it but so tempted to say I am absolutely smashing - I just had avocado on a WHITE bagel for breakfast & it was splendid &&& I am in a calorie deficit still, nothing absolutely devastating happened after eating said bagel and avocado.

I was afraid of not sticking to a calorie deficit without being held accountable at group but I am even more determined now because I need prove to my consultant when she texts me in a years time to ‘come back’ I can text back and say no thanks, I am 4st lighter and keeping it off!

A day ‘off plan’ had devastating effects to my mental health. A day where I may not be in a calorie deficit is all that it actually is🤷🏻‍♀️ First one would have led to a binge, 2nd one isn’t a big deal & won’t undo all my work!

I could go on forever here but all I want to really say is THANK YOU!👏🏼
This is music to my ears, it was thanks to Tattle that I saw huge flaws with slimming world. I liked our small group mid week but our consultant was incompetent. I liked the plan at the time but I find egotistic people really off-putting and Slimming World use very egotistic people as their cover models. Their whole business model is outdated and not fit for purpose, the slimming world plan from my experience shames people for having a social life and after covid, I think that shaming enjoyment is bad for well-being.

Let us hope after Margaret’s yacht has sailed away on the tears of us fatties that Slimming world can be revolutionised.

Brace yourselves, this egg shit is back!
My Fitness Pal kicked off at me today when I input mange tout with my evening meal. I’d had an extra satsuma at lunchtime so had apparently consumed too much sugar, I think it would explode if I tried to put this in and I’m assuming this is meant to be a snack not a meal! 🙈🤣

The JD seasoning posts send me over the edge..
If I see a bigger account that doesn’t promote it I’m almost proud of them. Talk about sh*t that helps or matters!!

I believe she's been reading on here and said the stuff about her doesn't make sense and sounds like it's been written by a toddler
Ah thank you. She has a cheek, her posts are littered with spelling and grammar mistakes which wouldn’t be so bad if it wasn’t her “bUsIneSs” 🤣 I think most of us Tattlers are actually extremely intelligent and eloquent, that’s why we’re able to see through all these insta huns and call them out! I love how they cry troll but never actually show what’s been said, as usually the points made are perfectly valid so they can’t really argue with them!

He once visited the NHS trust I worked at, he said that he will wear a disguise next time he visits because he hates being mobbed in reception. Two people said hello to him and that was it. Very arrogant man.

There is something not quite right about this person. From what I’ve seen, he seems overly confident or arrogant
I think if we're honest the signs were all there with him because as entertaining as supersize vs superskinny was from a psychological and medical standpoint it's not really the most ethical thing to do to with people who likely have eating disorders.

Embarassing bodies was also on the exploitative side giving people treatments they would never get of have to wait years for on the NHS, condition being the whole country gets to see it.

And the biggest shock of all, beingbrittany! She’s back to starting weight if not higher and she had lost 10 stone previously
Is beingbrittany the girl with unusual eyebrows, posts a lot of fashion pictures. I follow her, I didn’t think she was a slimming world member.

You can call me old fashioned but I don’t like seeing people in their underwear on instagram. I don’t need to see that when I was scrolling through Instagram while eating an Alpen bar

I know there’s a Pinch of Nom thread on here but it’s not active.

Tried out a recipe from one of their books last night, I’m not a massive fan of PON recipes but this one didn’t call for any strange ingredients so thought I would give it a go, it didn’t turn out well at all despite it smelling nice while it was cooking so I went to post on their page asking where I went wrong, my post got declined 😂😂

I wasn’t slagging off the recipe it was literally just basically saying I tried X recipe tonight, the consistency isn’t right, anyone have any idea where I might have gone wrong?? (With a photo of said meal)

I could understand if I’d put it was an absolute shower of shite and looks like something they’d serve in prison in the 1800s, the group should be called Pinch of Nom recipes and Arse Licking Posts Only!

I think someone said the other day, most of the big SW Insta accounts are very Mean Girls ‘you can’t sit with us!’

Considering it’s meant to be a ‘community’ 🙄 they are all very ME ME ME, and I don’t find them at all inspiring. It’s like they have lost the weight and they are so special because they have achieved it, not encouraging others to do so in an ‘if I can do it you can too’ way.
