This annoys me and gives SW a bad name.
I’ve said before I love the plan but not groups etc and posts like this account is taking the piss.
Today I’ve had scrambled egg and avocado on toast for breakfast. Dinner is a chicken salad and tea tonight is a pasta bake with salad.
If I want chocolate later then I will fit in but within my syns.
Anyone wondering, yes I’ve counted my avocado as 5 syns for amount I had.
SW has made me cook from scratch and eat fresh produce and make my meals colourful and healthful.
I’d never dream of that for a breakfast. Piss take and I bet it tastes rank

Yess I agreed with you! I lost weight on slimming world too I’ve put weight on during lockdown down take away drinking etc but the basic plan works, I have to limit the carbs tho you can’t eat unlimited pasta and rice 🙄 but in general it helped me eat more fresh fruits and veg and cook from scratch too !

I eat carbs but not in ridiculous amounts as I see some accounts.
I just love that I don’t have to hardly weigh anything and if I go over, I go over, be the same no matter what plan I was doing, it’s getting back to it that matters.
Sunday though I’ll be over indulging but Monday I’ll be back to eating as I do and no stress

Hi everyone new here, came across this thread and just wanted to say I agree with you all. I really dislike jane gammons, I dont even know if shes still doing it. I would of watch her you tube channel but she annoyed me so much by not getting or making a point. And also watching her crunch on camera 🤢 I've been searching my someone to follow who isnt annoying but dont think they exist 🤣🤣

My friend has always been pro slimming world and anti calorie counting. I have been more calorie counting but I eat some SW meals. She is now doing flexi SW/calorie counting. Seems mind blowing to me how you can do both basically to pick and choose what suits you on the day!

Its like a culty competition as to who can eat the most food within there syns and healthy extras. Its hard to believe outwith SW and Instagram anyone eats breakfasts like that on a daily basis. Surely not.

I don’t get the thing with overnight couscous for breakfast either. It looks rank. I think Tracey mouse has it often.

Yes! The smugness that comes with it, like they are gaming the system!

That sounds like too much hard work and time to me lol. That would have me stressed out

I had overnight oats last week, first time in ages and yeah still not a fan lol.
I want my porridge made as per instructed.
Remember when people use to make cakes out of cous coups as well, honestly if you want the cake, have the cake. Either work it into your day or go over and get on with it the next meal/day etc but enjoy it

See I love baked oats just not SW Baked oats. The whole time I was doing SW I didnt like Baked oats but now I can put whatever I like in them (hint, not the entire biscuit aisle of Tesco) loads of fruit and a mashed banana the texture is so much nicer than yogurt and egg.

This tit is why it gets a bad rap. I see Brittany the racist beg has switched and someone said on her thread that they’re pleased she switched as SW was “toxic”

SW is NOT toxic, Brittany and these mats interpretation is toxic.

So its oats, banana and egg? Just combined and bake with whatever fruit? It was the yogurt out me off the baked oats tbh. I'm funny about them and the kind I like 😊

I have to admit I am a total baked oats (not overnight, god no, so claggy!!) fan for breakfast, but I am not a piss taker when on plan. Nor do I melt a square of chocolate to dip fruit in, I just eat the bar of chocolate that I want whilst incorporating it into my days.

When it works and you go back to basics it works, but as with any plan you’ve also got to have your head in the right space as well, and clearly some of these folk are taking the mick!

One thing that does irk me and always has done though is how mashing or blending fruit makes it synnable? I could understand if they were to tell me it’s because mashing or blending releases sugars in the fruit, but to tell me it’s because I’m likely to consume more and affect my loses. Usually by a consultant with no nutritional training at all.

The overnight cous cous thing looks so gross 😩

I agree it's like they think they're playing the system, but it's all still calories at the end of the day and empty calories at that - I'd be starving eating all that sugar/sweetener laden crap. Plus I just couldn't be arsed with all the faffing for stuff like that swiss roll thing 😂

Nothing says "yummy" more than a quark cake 🤣

I do use quark quite a lot but more for savoury than sweet. I make waffles with porridge oats, an egg and quark and top with bacon. Or as part of a creamy sauce, but I'll add in some proper cream or creme fraiche to make it not taste like quark! Keeps the syns/calories lower without sacrificing the taste too much. I can't get excited about a meringue nest, quark and fruit like the people in my group do!
