"We were on it for a good while, personally shifted the start of the weight quite quickly, but I suspect it's as much just being careful what you eat, and combined with a more active lifestyle. The goals and motivation seem to be the big thing. I lost 2 stone that way, but have shifted to "juice plus" and really stepped up the exercise to try and get rid of the last little bit. If nothing else it opened us up to a whole load of new foods, and got us away from processed rubbish. I'd love a kebab, though. " I also lost two stone through many small dietary changes combined with increased and more varied exercise. It took about five years but I've not been this light since my mid teens. Still work to do but I'd not be involved with a club like that. Some people haven't enough self control and need the extra help but for me it's all my own work    | |||

"SW is the best of the slimming clubs IMO, it's based on a low GI diet - which suited me coz I'm a diabetic. It's easy to follow and teamed with exercise you will do brill, best of luck xxx" i to try and eat low GI foods being diabetic myself. | |||

"Fair play. It helped get into the mind set to do it though, and get into new, better habits too. When I was nearly 19stone even exercise was an issue, at least shaving that first couple of stone off made it much easier. Under 15 1/2 stone now, and dropping every week "Well done...

"Love Slimming World. I've lost nearly 4 stone since joining and I'll never look back. It's not a fad, or a quick fix diet - it is a lifestyle change and it makes you re think your whole outlook on food, exercise etc Love the meetings, the support is unreal and the people in my group are amazing. Ive tried WW's and every shitty diet under the sun and I am so glad I decided to give SW a go! "Totally agree.. its def a lifestyle change.. its simple silly little things that make a massive difference and that might be all ur cousin needs.. she doesnt have to go to it for the rest of her life just to realise a few simple things she may have been doing wrong.. its totally mafe me change my view on eating.. and there is so much you can eat on a slimming world diet its never once felt like being on a diet. Just a lifestyle change.. whats the worst that can happen???

Actually the idea that eating less will lose you weight is something of a myth. In many cases the best course of action is to eat more. Obviously you need to eat the right foods but it is often best to eat "little and often". Eating one or two meals a day sends the body into starvation mode and you will store up your carbs as fat. Eating 4/5 small meals a day, containing good carbs and proteins will speed up the metabolism and burn calories more efficiently, leading to weight loss if you get the balance right and throw in regular exercise. | |||

A very simplistic way of looking at things, if it was as easy as just saying 'ok i'm not eating crap anymore' noone would have a weight problem, there are usually underlying psychological issues , not in all cases but I would say in the majority, sometimes you can get yourself into a mindset where you feel so unhappy you just don't see the point in even trying. I believe that exercise is the greatest anti-depressant there is but you have to have the mindset to do it in the first place. | |||

"Someone said it earlier... It's a lifestyle change and not a diet! Diets don't work full stop There is not short term fix or special shakes or plank challenge " I agree, if you aren't mentally committed and focussed then it doesn't matter what diet you try. | |||
"She wasn't eating crap. Just not sticking to the SW plan . " meant if she doesnt stick to a general healthy lifestyle she will pile back on weight alot of these plans are similar to each other dressed up in different ways bottom line of them all is watch what you eat and be active | |||

"I've seen a lot of my friends do the slimming world plan and it's worked well for a few but as with all things most of them put the weight back on because the had it in their heads that it was a diet for a short time rather than a lifestyle change. Myself personally I did the motivation weight management programme and lost 7stone they seem to promote the lifestyle change more as well as thoughts and feelings surrounding food an why we eat what we eat. I found it brilliant but everyone will find different ways of changing their lifestyles to lose/manage their weight "that's an amazing achievement, well done to you for that loss! | |||

But with these systems above the outcome is ALWAYS that you will end up eating less calories than your body is used to eating, and guess what you will loose weight.
You will loose lots of subcutaneous water weight (water under your skin), you will definitely loose muscle tissue as your body goes for the easy fuel source to try make up for the extra food your not giving it. And all you will loose a small mount of bodyfat.
This goes on for weeks and sometimes months, and your telling your mates how well it's working.
Then it stops, because your body has found a balance and is now used the the amount of calories your giving it.
The weight loss stalls, but as you've already been eating very little on some of these plans, you can't reduce much more. You get fed up, slowly but surely you loose the willpower you had in the beginning, and you slowly start to put the weight back on.
You end up going back to eating the way you did before, but you don't realise you've just forced your body to get by on a small amount of calories, and your now giving it much more again. It now has loads of extra calories to store as body fat.
What happens next is a couple months down the road they're heavier again and have gotten fed up so they decide well that thing worked for me before so I'll do it now but I'll work harder this time.
The cycle repeats, and these companies are still getting paid.
NOW, before the slimming world crowd jump done my neck with the success stories, You guys are the reason they're still here.
I get clients on a daily basis who have tried it and it's worked temporarily then backfired drastically, and they end up in my office very disheartened and confused.
But we all know someone who knows someone who lost tons of weight and kept it off.
Of course we do because it only takes a tiny few to do it and that's the success backed up right there.
These people who fail don't constantly tell everyone about it on Fb, and share with their mates how they're creeping back up the scales. When the scales were coming down they couldn't tell enough people.
Hope there's no word limit on this thing haha!
And as for the juicing and detoxing plans! They are the worst thing you can do if your end goal is a trim healthy body!
Phew!if you made it this far, you prob have too much time on your hands, get back to work lol

"Have just read this post myself and apologies for it being so damn long. But it's a hugely important issue to so many people and i fucking hate seeing people waste their money and end up in worse positions than when they started and more often than not upset, and borderline depressed. So if your just here for the casual read, maybe skip this essay lol, if your genuinely interested, fire away but don't say I didn't warn you lol I'll throw my two cents in here. Will prob get me a tongue lashing but I ain't holding back as why ask if ya don't want opinions. It's hardly the be all and end all but I'm a personal trainer and a sports nutrition coach so have quite a strong dislike for a lot of these. So, all these different systems below, and I'm only touching the surface, there's TONS of them, *Herbalife *weight watchers *body by Vi *slimming world *juice plus *forever living Yeah you know the ones I'm in about. These are all profit producing organisations and just like any other business, they have smart systems in place, They also know their demographic. The majority will be slightly to morbidly out of shape, over weight, not got the greatest willpower, low self esteem, poor understanding of how the body works regarding gaining or loosing weight (weather it's water, muscle or fat) and they use this to their advantage. If your over weight from calorie surplus and lack of exercise for a long time (over 6months) then you have a lot more issues than just being 'fat' to worry about. *Your hormone systems will not be running as they should, *Your energy systems will not be firing on all cylinders, *Your insulin sensitivity is probably shot to shit. *your pancreas is overworked trying to produce more insulin to make up for the above mentioned insulin problem. It goes on and on but for the sake of keeping you awake I'll stop it there.
