I'm not long off my SW zoom call and from next week they're going to be doing what consultant called "a six week boot camp". Interesting!

Can anyone remember the girl who lost an incredible amount of weight but unfortunately she ended up with an eating disorder?

I think she was called laura? And had ginger auburn hair. Wonder what happened to her.

she changed her profile name from sw to something else then last I seen her she was going in I think to a anorexia hospital centre.

hope she’s doing okay

there’s clearly something wrong there, if I knew someone doing that I’d suggest trying to speak to Doctor for some therapy or something?! Thats really shocked me 😮

I haven't been on any of the zooms of my group, I've seen screenshots of it and I think I'd rather lie under my bed in the dark than participate in one 😂
Neither have I! Never done a zoom meeting, I have kept paying for slimming world as my consultant is great and I feel I want to support him. My scales at home aren't very nice though! So think I will just wait until we can go back to the meeting as I really want to see if slimming world is making any changes. I think the plan def works but like alot ,these instragram accounts have done alot of damage to slimming world. Before I found tattle I really couldn't understand how they lost weight with all these cheat days and desserts and full plates. Honestly I was so naive back then

Just noticed laurasally_sw, her last few recipes are all Gousto recipes. I thought they seemed familiar and its because they are, because Ive had them the last week!!

She doesnt appear to advertise theyre not her recipes, weird.

I'm glad to hear that, she was in desperate need of intervention. I had to stop following her as found a lot of her posts quite upsetting.
Was she the one that always had raw red onion on her plate? If so I used to follow her, the poor girl had lost her Mum and it was clear she had an issue with food.

I hadn't noticed but now I've gone and looked, she's definitely not saying they're Gousto recipes. She's got a Gousto highlight where she shoes the recipe card but not mentioning a thing in the grid posts. That's really sneaky! Plus she's promoting her 50% off code so she should be marking it as an ad.

Why are people acting like calorie counting has only just been invented and is this new phenomenon 😂🤣
Exactly what I’ve been thinking! Everyone is buzzing over it like it’s a new thing! I calorie counted 7/8 years ago and lost 6 stone after having a baby I put some back on and tried slimming world but just couldn’t get on with it so went back to calorie counting now all I’m seeing is it all over social media like some new craze 😂

Yes I follow her. Her Insta is loving_lauren.x she seems to be doing much better, and has a really supportive family and girlfriend.

I calorie counted about 6 years ago and lost 2 stone but I ended up getting really obsessed with it, I was using MFP and I wouldn’t be happy unless it was giving me a warning at the end of the day that my cals were too low 😬 just find SW better as I don’t get obsessed with every little thing. I did SW first time 3 years ago and I did maintain not at the goal weight I’d set because it was unrealistic, but at a manageable healthy weight up until last year when I put on a load during lockdown. Got over a stone of it off now, I’m letting my hair down a bit this weekend but I’m not having a total blowout, just a few treats I wouldn’t normally have. As it was being discussed the other day it’s really sad having to stress about food other people make/give you. It is actually proven that a small break in your ‘diet’ leads to longer term success, obviously not the frequent breaks the SW Insta lot have! I’ll be back to it properly come Easter Monday 😊

I’m doing slimming world as me and my husband need to lose a lot of lockdown weight. I find some areas of it problematic but want to support my husband. I’ve just adjusted it a bit to suit me. I love a smoothie breakfast in summer so if I want one I’ll have it but only use what Id have eaten in a meal so one banana handful of berries measured portion of oats if wanting to add oats .
Mashed banana too one mashed is fine as long as I don’t go stupid and have more than one.

eventually I will calorie count but Im
Just using this to get a good start as I need to for my health. Also I can’t stand whole meal bread so most of the time I won’t have bread but if I want a burger and my white option is the same calories as whole meal hex b I’ll have it

I don't get it. Either have pancakes OR a biscuit. Why put a biscuit on pancakes?! It's bizarre. Baked oats with caramel spread AND caramel eggs. So much sugar. Sorry, I've just been looking at that persons page and it's all just sugar.
