Harry Pickard #9 Was he following SW plan? Appears to have morphed into Cesar Millan

Ffs, 10 years later and people still push that bullshit too . :rolleyes:

Change the record.

And he post 4-5 meals a week at most. No-one knows what he eats the rest of the time.

I think it’s time I unfollow this thread. 2 posts in a row where I’m somehow defending this prick who blocked me about 3 years ago 🤣.

But duck me, it’s just as boring seeing people pretend to care about his followers being misled while slagging both him and them off. You can’t have it both ways.

Its still pushed because it’s relevant it isn’t bullshit it’s a nutritional fact the calories and the macros of a banana do not change just because you mash it first …

I’m going to be upfront here, I followed SW, 5stone off since 2018 & keeping it off. I have switched to calorie counting now & 5km walk everyday. I never bought into the hardcore bullshit like worrying about mashing a banana or making a Ferraro Rocher out of weetabix !! But in basic terms it is a good plan, if you don’t go fundamental & just use common sense.

Congratulations and well done for keeping it off I’m definitely not saying it doesn’t work for everyone as obviously there are successes ( this is true of any weight loss plan ) but for every person who manages to lose weight and keep it off the statistics show that the majority will fail…
When I started SW I was a slightly chubby new mother and it was back in the day of red and green eating plans and syns at the time were sins, the actual plan was a lot more restrictive, I lost the weight and kept it off until they started messing with the plans and Extra Easy ( or whatever it was called at the time ) came in then things like Potatoes, Rice and Pasta became free and it started to get a whole lot harder…. I ended up at 19 stone with a serious eating disorder the thing is once you get into that state you are well past using your common sense …
It wasn’t until I went into therapy before having a gastric bypass that I realised I knew absolutely nothing about nutrition… I’d been on SW for the best part of 20 years and when talking to an actual nutritionist he was absolutely horrified at what I considered a healthy meal was.

Hate to defend the guy but they are, I use the same ones. He’s got a cheek claiming it’s SW friendly though, where’s the 1/3 speed food?

I’ll start off by saying that I’m genuinely glad you finally did something about your weight and found what worked for you, but I guarantee their plan would have worked as well, if you’d followed it. It works for me (when I follow it) and hundreds of thousands of others. WW would do too. People stop losing weight or gain weight because they don’t follow any legitimate version of any weight loss plan. Pretending otherwise makes us look foolish.

Meals should consist of at least 1/3 veg, the rest free food, ideally with plenty of protein to keep you full. And weigh and measure and appropriately count syns and healthy extras (for fibre and calcium). Because they’re higher in fat/sugars and therefore calories. Reach for speed free foods first as snacks, if hungry, between meals. That’s the SW plan in one paragraph.

Nowhere in their books does anyone mention mashing bananas but if someone stops losing weight and it turns out they’re eating 50 of the fuckers per day in smoothies or as pancakes, then they provide clarification that it should be synned as they’re using them in place of otherwise synned ingredients or reducing the filling power. A single ounce of common sense would tell you that, but people still try and blame SW for it. :rolleyes:

But the point is the plan didn’t work for me and it doesn’t for the majority of people on it which is why most people return time and time again because it teaches you nothing about nutrition…. Diets don’t work and as much as SW likes to say it’s a lifestyle 🙄 it isn’t because it’s very restrictive, Trying to find a SW friendly meal while eating out isn't easy phoning ahead and asking for a jacket potato not rubbed in oil ( Fopper ( bloody ) olic ) is absolutely ludicrous or looking at a menu and telling the people/person you are with there is nothing SW friendly on the menu ( that particular one use to really piss my husband off )…
No food is Free telling an extremely overweight person to eat until satisfied and to use their common sense is useless because if that person had any common sense about eating sensibly they wouldn’t have got in that position in the first place…
I’m very anti diet and you won’t convince me otherwise I’ve spent the best part of my whole adult life following one plan or another and the only thing that does for the majority of the people doing it is cost them a lot emotionally and most certainly financially.

I respectfully disagree. You’re entitled to your opinion though.

Back on track with the thread, has Harry posted up any actual weights or how close he is to his target? I saw in an earlier screenshot he’d posted losses but couldn’t read any text underneath them.

He stated when he rejoined he wanted to lose 3 stone by summer and he's lost almost 1 1/2 stone.... he's actually sharing screenshot of the weigh in page at class but his actual weight is crossed out....
 
Jesus I don’t comment on this thread but what I’m reading is making me howl🤣

The ONLY way to lose weight is by being in a calorie deficit. It’s a scientific FACT.
Wether that be by calorie counting,SW, WW, slim fast, bleeping fasting, any diet you follow and lose weight with, means you’re in a calorie deficit.

Everyone loves to bash something because they don’t agree with it, I hate SW I think it’s the biggest load of tit on the planet, but it does work for some people! My mum being one of them. She did it, lost 2 stone and has happily kept it off for 5+ years. But for me, I did it, lost 3 stone, and regained 5. It doesn’t teach you anything about nutrition but for people who follow it, stick to it and enjoy it- does it really matter if we don’t like it for ourselves? My friend made a valid comment, she rejoined a slimming world group, one she’d never been to before and the consultants first words were ‘WELCOME BACK’ because most of the members go back because it’s (in my opinion) mostly unsustainable!

Sorry to derail- back to Harold. He looks like he’s 2 stone wet through why does he even feel the need to be on sw🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️ insta interactions again?👀
