I was going to join but for various reasons didn’t my husband told me he was awful and I didn’t really listen.
I realise now that the reason I wanted to join is because he was the same as my inner voice about myself so critical and the names. So I thought I deserved to be spoken to the way he goes on, it confirmed my inner thoughts. I don’t believe he’s healthy for anyone.

I have noticed a few long posts from members about how you have to put the graft in and stop making excuses ect. One from a member about how she gets her 15000 steps in working from home walking on the spot whilst taking her phone calls, running up and down stairs ect ect. I wonder if the favourites have been asked to post because the content from the owners is dire at the moment.
The thing is, it's not imperative to do 15k steps a day. I have an office based job wfh and there's no way I can walk on the spot whilst talking to customers, trying to work efficiently at a makeshift office with a laptop and mobile whilst working 3/4 different applications at any 1 time there's noway hosay walking comes into that.

Somedays, on a 10hr shift I'll maybe only achieve 1500 steps in a day. Weekends I do get out and easily do over 10k but 15k, hardly ever, if at all.

What I'm trying to say is, as long as you have a calorie deficit, you'll lose weight. It's not magic. I've been following a reduced calorie meal plan whilst using Nutracheck, keeping tabs on my fitbit and even only doing 1500 steps a day somedays , I can still lose weight.

Get in a calorie deficit and it will happen. It HAS to, you don't need to pay a c**k like him to make you feel bad that you're not doing 15000 steps a day!

That’s awful! What is the point of ‘not dying early unless you lose weight’ if you can’t enjoy yourself?

My birthday is on Saturday, I’m going out for Thai food with my mum tomorrow, we’re going away on Wednesday then back Sunday then I’m going out for Italian with my dad 🤣 like I am really gonna try and deprive myself while I’m away or tell my parents I don’t want to go out for a meal 🤷‍♀️
Exactly! You enjoy every second of it ❤
There's no logic in starting some rigid plan when you know you're about to go off plan & end up feeling shit about yourself because of this idiot.
Yes Richie we were all born on "one f*king day" it's the one day we should forget all our problems & indulge in what makes us happy, guilt free.
It must be nice to only have to worry about how many calories you consume 🙄 we can't all be so one dimensional.

If I was paying someone to help me get into shape & they put their energy into posting bitchy IG rants containing things like "your stinky, shitey, arsehole" 🤢 I'd be putting my money elsewhere. Minger 😂

He thinks he's the solution but directing negativity towards people who need help with their weight, he's becoming the problem. His execution is poor.

I’m shocked someone like Rachael is with him. He’s a narcissist. He once wrote a huge post on her on the page and he wrote something about how one of her friends dislikes him but he’d never stop her being friends with this person. I guarantee he has done what he can to make Rachael disown anyone who tries to make her see the light.

I don't know why anyone would want to be associated with that. The only thing that would motivate me to do is steer clear of someone so unprofessional, how else does this manifest itself in the rest of their business? If this is them putting their best face forward then what's their worst?
You don't need to have a high level of intelligence by any means but think before you post, think beyond the realms of your own train of thought. Take it Richie manages their IG account? Someone else should take the reigns.

What happened to natural nutrients? They said it was the best protein ever but now have a different brand advertised ?
I may be wrong but when there was the split with the affiliates. Big man allegedly threatened one of the affiliates that NN were going to sue them.as they had posted about another protein powder on their page.

The NN people liked one of her pics or commented (sorry my memory is not the best) so she dm'd him and said she was surprised they were liking/commenting on her post.and with the legal stuff probably best not to.

The NN people supposedly said wtf you talking about so she explained showed them.screenshots of what big man had been saying and they weren't too happy as they knew nothing about it and didn't want dragging in to it. (Not happy with big man not the affiliate)

If someone else was in the break away group and remembers it better than me they can add or correct me if I am remembering it wrongly.

I was a member and left after all of the bullying came out. I was always scared to ask for help in case he publicly shamed me with one of his ranty videos

Anyone seen his latest Instagram post about Rachel giving up her teaching career to start Team RH?

Major alarm bells with him saying that he actually asked her to quit. Not that she volunteered. He also says that they are in their own bubble, which we know is true, it’s like she has Stockholm syndrome almost!

Not to mention the rest of the badly written, expletive laden (although pretty tame for him) rambling nonsense!

Are you a member of Preece now? I’ve been debating signing up tonight, I know what I need to do but need some motivation
I’m not but he’s spent all day talking with me today. Reassuring me, lifting me back up again, telling me it’s ok and to trust myself and that I don’t have to use callipers and damage my mental health. That I need to take some time and allow myself to eat. He is a wonderful, kind, genuine person.

Yes just because RH is an ignorant clown doesn’t mean WW, SW etc are off the hook. The business model of the slimming groups relies on the return custom...meaning, medium term, most people will regain any weight lost, and some.
RH is a slimming group too. I wonder how many clients of cal counting clubs regain the weight lost when they stop cal counting? I bet they have a similar rate of weight gain as SW/WW. I follow a few cal counting pages and all of them lost the bulk of their weight with SW/WW (two of them lost over 6st each) and joined a cal counting group to get the last 7lb off. However these cal counting clubs use their before and afters and claim the work as theirs. I’m a serial dieter and the only way to keep the weight off is if you implement life long changes to the way you view and eat food. If you follow a diet for 12 weeks and then immediately revert back to old habits the weight will go on. This is the same for WW, SW, RH, Munro, JSA etc. A lot of JSA members have regained the weight they lost initially when doing his challenges.

Seen this on a myfitnesspal group today after someone complained of Team RH affiliates inboxing them privately to sign up (allegedly). This comment was an interesting read......''told to do more steps because she pissed him off'', IF TRUE, how do people defend him?

Just found this thread. It’s shocking to here everyone’s bad experiences.
It’s funny I was looking at their fb page and I noticed they don’t have reviews activated. I believe this is because on Facebook negative reviews cannot be deleted and also fake “good” reviews are harder to detect.
move never known a good strong business to deactivate the review option on their social media page. I’m a business owner myself and my fb reviews are important in the portrayal of my business

I’ll leave this here. View attachment 381767
That's your dinner sorted Richie. He's stinking. Probably been living off the stuff for the past week so had to google it for his macros. You're too cool Richie 🙄 just so shocking and wild, how can we cope.

I normally wouldn't pick this apart but since it's him with another absurd attention seeking post...one calorie is singular & it's "there you go".

He conjures up an unclean image in my mind, from his stinking bum hole finger, cereal/cottage cheese microwave meal and now this 😂

Sorry what exactly didn’t you get that you thought you were getting? It’s laid out on his social media plain as day he’s a jackass with no compassion yet people still buy from him then have the cheek to complain.

Doesn’t matter how many long replies sent it’s wrong and you’re responsible for the contracts you enter into as an adult
You obviously didn't read what I wrote. You do not get the service you are led to believe that you are signing up for. I followed them from the start and have seen the change within them, becoming what they said they were not, more and more greedy, less hands on and passing the buck. If there is a problem, they are somewhat unhelpful and give the same generic response, with often wrong medical information. They also blame the customer and accuse them of not tracking correctly. That is not helpful coaching. It's not helpful for their minions and fans to tear people down on the page either. I could go on with many other examples, but as you're not a fan of "long replies" I won't bother 🙄

If you think it's all fair and square then that's fine, whatever. I don't. Many other people do not think it's fair either. Let's hope as an adult you never encounter a fraudulent contract you're not happy with or can't pay your bills eh!

The issue with the year long contract is, most of us haven't received even half of what we were promised when we signed up. They lock people in knowing full well that if it were pay as you go, the vast majority of people would be gone after the first month.

I was a member about 3 years ago. It’s an absolutely vile toxic group with no support at all.

I have struggled with BED my whole life because of a parent who restricted my food, used to use our dog to chase me around a field to exercise and berated me constantly for being overweight.

I’ve never successfully lost weight as emotional overeating always wins. I once asked for help in the group and Richie made me the subject of one of his rants. Using my full name. Calling me lazy and pathetic. Told me I was going to die. Told me I will never lose weight because I am weak and I actually don’t deserve to be thin or deserve his help.

At the time I was working 40 hours a week in my main job, then building a business which was another 30 hours a week - I tried to explain to him I didn’t have time to get 15,000 steps in but it was just pathetic excuses apparently. He set me back years. I’ve still not made any progress on my weight loss as in the back of my mind I hear his voice and my dads about how I’ll always be fat and lazy.

Im glad people have mentioned Preece - I always liked him and was aware of the fallout and the poor woman who was getting legal letters etc - I hope she stood her ground and stood up to them. Maybe I will have a look at Preece today and see if it’s time to make some changes.
That is absolutely disgraceful. I'm so sorry he's done that to you. He's set up that company where he allegedly helps people to lose weight for a monthly fee. What he's actually doing is taking the money & offering nothing but insults & abuse if you ask for help? The app doesn't work. It's a really cheap nasty version of mfp which is free. He's mentally and emotionally abusing anyone who asks anything of him.
The "you don't deserve to be thin" comment stands out. That's what it's all about. The aesthetic. He clearly doesn't give a sh*t about anyones wellbeing or mental health, as long as you're thin it doesn't matter how mentally or physically damaged you become in the process. It's the be all, end all. He's created such a negative, toxic environment. It's the opposite of health & wellbeing. Preece is such a lovely guy, I joined after he was mentioned here. It's everything RH isn't.

That post about counting calories of medicine! Good lord. If you disagree with him you somehow lack intelligence & you've to f**k off. What a child, he's embarrassing. It is too far and when you're tracking things like medicine to help you recover from an illness, that's one step towards an eating disorder. He shouldn't be encouraging that. Is he really expecting someone who is ill to avoid medication or even food because it would mean they wouldn't be in a deficit?

He's not in a position to call anyone thick. We've seen enough of him to know that. He's ultra sensitive & can't handle being challenged, even if it's indirectly. He comes across as such a sweetie wife who loves drama, squabbles and gossip.

It needs shut down now. There's obviously numerous instances of bullying & shaming people publicly. That kind of thing isn't on.
