The reason I like SW is because I suffered with an ED in the past and I get overly obsessed with calorie counting, so I find the SW plan a healthy way of doing things with the focus being on eating a balanced diet with lots of fresh produce. I do weigh my carbs e.g. I'll do a 60g portion of dried pasta/rice, as someone else said I keep quiet about that at group or you get pounced on. I do fully understand calorie deficit and macros etc but it's just best I don't do it or it takes over my life. I also always used to eat a lot of convenience foods just because you can easily track the calories without having to weigh everything individually. I ended up back at SW in November last year cos I'd managed to put nearly 20lb on during lockdown and need the accountability! I do feel so much better for it

lost a stone so far and enjoyed every meal. I don't tend to have a lot of 'free' food really even though I could quite happily eat pasta every night for the rest of my life. My losses are slow anyway cos I don't have loads of weight to lose (ideally another stone) so try and have SP meals most days. The thing I don't get with the current SW plan is SP days you can only have 10 syns and EE 15, I think it would make far more sense to have it the other way round

never done the plan with Red/Green days, when I was a member last time it was 2 x HexB on an SP day.
