What IS it about Slimming World?

[Karenn W]

I'm intrigued by how it works too. I have never ever eaten so much on a diet and lost such a lot of weight in a short time. I truly never feel hungry nor deprived. I feel 100% better in myself- as a chronic asthmatic my breathing was incredibly poor due to poor lung function and carrying around 5 stone of excess weight. But now, I rarely use my inhaler, and feel so much healthier.
All the junk, sweet stuff and high fat foods have been eliminated from my diet ( and my house) and been replaced with lovely fresh alternatives.
Don't get me wrong, I still adore all the naughty foods and miss them madly- but if I want to stay well and alive, then this has to be my lifestyle change.
I am eternally grateful for being told about Slimming World, I truly thought it was just another 'fat club' like the other one I'd been to- but it really isn't. I love my group, my consultant is a hoot, and the diet is working- what's not to love?

I think it's got me to where I am because i don't have to starve myself, and can eat like a normal person! I'm not cutting out certain food groups, I'm not living off milk shakes, I'm not just eating a small salad for lunch, I'm not skipping meals. Just the fact it teaches me to eat healthy and treats in moderation. And some of the stuff I can cook now I prefer it to eating out!

When I say what plan I'm following so many people sniff and declare that they don't understand how anyone can eat so much (especially including pasta) and lose weight.

Well they may not, but clearly it does work so NERR to them

Slimming world isn't a diet, it's a life style. Even when coming off plan in the past I've continued to use sweetener rather than sugar, fried with fry-light & made sw chips just because I prefer them to sugar, olive oil & oven chips. I don't dare to think what my start weight would have been this time round starting SW again without those little things!

SW is the best plan out there! I would never have thought to use curry pastes before, I'd have just bought a ready made creamy tikka. A curry as good as a take away for 2syns! Amazing!

I can't rave about it enough to anyone who will listen!
