This is the second thread to talk about with like minds who are leaving SW for good and switching to more sustainable and healthy diets.
Many of us who have done SW know it promotes unhealthy eating habits and fear foods. The aim of this thread is to create a space for ex members to rant and ask for advice and support in undoing SW habits.
Whether your lingering issues are -
- fear foods (i.e olive oil)
- constantly looking at food as synful
- still measuring cereals, bread and cheeses and scared to break the habit.
- blaming yourself when you have a gain
- scared of exercise due to a consultant telling you it stops you losing weight.
Or any number of ways SW may affect still affect your diet after you've left..
Feel free to share what you are struggling with or what has helped you take back control of your diet.
Together we can put syns in the bin for good.
Couple of notes to add on:
- This thread is Anti Slimming World please consider if this is a thread for you if you are a current member of SW and/or very supportive of it. Please refrain telling us SW is great and we misunderstand it as a couple tried to in last thread.
If you are an SW member looking for tips on leaving you are very welcome here!
- If you feel you have developed a severe eating disorder please contact your GP for help as we on this thread can only give support and unqualified advice about slightly disordered eating habits and mindsets arising from SW membership.
