Sorry if it's already been mentioned, I'm still reading through the thread, but does anyone remember that girl, maybe called Emily? Who had a treat plate every week? Filled with cookies, pick n mix, and so much more shit? So healthy!

Was she really tall with short hair then stopped posting and disappeared! She lost a lot of weight? People were commenting on her posts asking if she was ok. Maybe I’m on about someone else.
She went vegan and created a new insta that last about one week then she jacked it all

Yes ylimesalad! Its just a classic binge/restrict cycle isnt it.

You shouldnt have to eat a huge plate of diabetes once a week to maintain your weight. She was at target but obviously wasnt eating enough the other 6 days to maintain it.

Its just such a strange concept to me. Same as the 'cheat day' mentality. It youre on and off plan its not working for you.

I will go over my alloted calories now that I CC but I can see its just a little and it generally doesnt have much affect whereas when I did SW if I had say a takeaway Id be like oh well fuck it that was 40 syns or whatever, blown it now, start again tomorrow or next week. I know thats an issue with myself and not essentially SWs problem though.

Does anyone follow emilycat_sw? I used to follow her and visited her page recently to see she’s just changed to an FM Hun and it’s flogging pyramid schemes on her page 😂 also noticed she’s gained a bit of weight but is still using before and afters from when she was at her skinniest

I think it might be fake as well. People are insistent that SW is toxic, but seem to forget that they lost tonnes of weight on it. I started it as I really needed to get my focus on food to be normal and healthy and in this respect it works well, it does help that I tend towards home-cooking and can do without take outs if I have nice food in, maybe not so easy for people who eat out and on the run a lot. SW does have some stupid rules like the mashed banana thing, and the muller lights for half points when they should be more. It is clear they have brand partners as well. However compared to WW in which they like to keep you in a starve/binge cycle, demonise carbs and relatively healthy foods-cous cous is considered the same as the evil and deadly pasta. I am constantly surprised that WW does not get any slagging compared with SW, maybe because it was last ‘in’ about ten fifteen years ago and is clearly struggling. I will eventually start to calorie count-not because I want chocolate for breakfast but to maintain my anticipated massive weight loss!

WW has 3 plans now. One is practically the same as SW and carbs are not limited (not even pasta or couscous). The old plans were low carb. I think WW is very similar to calorie counting with an emphasis of high density/low calorie foods. Same as SW. All plans work on the basis of a calorie deficit. Different plans will work for different people. There’s a big difference between eating for health and eating for weight loss. They aren’t the same thing.

It is doable like
I had a few men in my class that were massive and lost a stone and half in the first week

It's more people who are at a near target weight and suddenly lose a huge amount in a week to hit the target. In the first week the initial loss will always be higher. 😊

Where did this post come from? It’s not on their SM platforms and I can’t see any reference on their website. I’m getting fake vibes but may be wrong!

It doesnt necessarily rule them out it just reduces the amount you have. All depends as well if you are able to manage your symptoms as they are now. If youre happy then crack on eating the onion and garlic 😋

I'm going to see how cutting out the dairy goes, kind of go in phases with IBS from being totally manageable to looking 6 months pregnant and in total agony, with no change in diet bar the odd thing that is a total no no, Vindaloo, anything both tomatoey and lentil based to name a couple. I know those are high FODMAP. Oh for life to be simple :ROFLMAO:
