Depends on your health issue but I calorie count and I have a small something sweet basically every day? Obviously it requires control but I have a few squares of dark chocolate or chocolate orange and I’ve still lost 4 stone! I am not sure cutting out sugar totally is needed if weightloss is what you’re after? But might be wrong depending on your meds.

It’s weight loss for high blood pressure but also I worry about diabetes as my dad was diabetic and my brother now is too.

A friend of mine who is coached by my coach lost 3 stone and reversed her type 2 diabetes. We are on the same calorie counting plan. 💖👍🏼 I can tell you after my 4 stone weight loss my BP and all my other health vitals have normalised.

This is positive to hear. We borrowed our friends BP machine a couple of weeks ago for my partner and I thought I'd just check mine whilst we had it and it was through the rough! I thought it may be a fluke so did it twice a day for a few days and it remained high. Given me a huge kick up the bum!!!

ETA Roof not rough!!!

Amazing! I also have arthritis in my hips and couldn’t walk for more than 20 mins before without lots of pain. Now I can walk for 2-3 hours. Funnily losing 26kg off of your skeleton makes walking easier 😂😂
 
Hello! I’m new to this thread but I quit my class a few weeks ago after coming to my senses. I done a little experiment with myself and done a full strict week ‘syn and free food tracking’ and then a full week calorie counting and it turns out I was actually eating WAAAAAAAY more calories on slimming world than what’s actually bloody healthy!!! 🫣🫣 no wonder the scales weren’t moving/going up! Anyway I’ve decided now to start calorie counting and lost 8lbs already…while eating food I enjoy 😂😂 IM FREE OF SYNS

How long do we give it before SW huns are all over the American “water tok” trend using British skinny syrup brands 😂

Ugh don’t. That entire Skinny range is foul. It’s all just chemically crap.

There was a bakery everyone on SW went mad for a while ago too. I ordered some 1 syn cakes from them and half of them were mouldy! They were also tiny and tit. The customer service person tried to blame me for not refrigerating them quickly enough. What was I thinking buying cakes in the post?

Very slimming indeed, 1850 calories

Surely you’d have to syn some of that? I can’t even tell what some of it is, but surely things like black pudding and hash browns aren’t free? I don’t eat pork so aren’t sure on the syns for full English stuff but my groups were always obsessed with them!

Actually I’m not 100% sure he’s a slimming worlder anymore. He was for ages but he might be calorie counting now. Regardless, having the audacity to call yourself a slimming account with loads of slimming world followers still watching your page and putting that up is so irresponsible imo

Not really irresponsible when he actually says in the post 'don't ask the calories it's 1850'

As for that amount of calories its actually typical for a full cooked breakfast at places like Toby Cavery, Wetherspoons etc

How is putting that up irresponsible?
Would you be happier if he put up SW sausage from iceland, bacon medallions and eggs in frylight? Whats the irresponsibility here? Someone from SW sees it and assumes its syn free? Thats their own fault and anyway breaking out of a syns mindset will do them good.

If someone is as triggered as you claim to be by seeing non SW food. They are the one with the disordered eating.

This is an ex SW thread. I applaud anyone who moves away from SW to CC. If someone does it's then ridiculous to try and police what they eat and then say they still have a responsibility to SW members.

Oh and it is possible to lose weight eating high calorie meals and lose weight. Shaming people for calories and portion sizes because it doesn't fit with your vision of what losing weight should be is disordered thinking.

He's not claiming it's SW food. He's doing CC.
