Why I think SW's latest survey is ****!
Переглядів 1,8 тис.3 роки тому
I have recently been made aware of Slimming World's latest marketing against calorie counting and a survey they have conducted. In the interest of truth, honesty and a bit of balance - here's my reply.
Why feeling in control is so important in weight loss
Переглядів 8473 роки тому
One of my amazing members posted in our members only Facebook group to say how she'd noticed that since starting she no longer felt the need for a post weigh in binge. So I thought I'd explain a bit more about why we do this, where it comes from and why through calorie counting with the Busy Bitch Diet the support is put in place to help end that need for bingeing - along with the guilt, shame ...

Open letter to past members... I don’t really know where to begin, except to say I’m sorry to all my past members. I’ve spent 14 years working on and off with 2 of the biggest weight loss brands in the UK. All I can say is I wish I knew then what I know now and I would have done things differently. Things like… ~ I wouldn’t have suggested you could eat unlimited amounts of any food and still lo...
Why I stopped being a Slimming World Consultant & started Calorie Counting
Переглядів 15 тис.3 роки тому
This is probably the top question I've been asked since leaving Slimming World in August 2020, after nearly 2.5 years as a consultant running multiple franchises. Why leave that and then start calorie counting and launching the Busy Bitch Diet. Please note: as I say in the video, if Slimming World or other weight loss plans are currently working for you - then that's amazing. This is about find...

    This is very interesting. 😊People loose weight though on slimming world. But yes I left due to food anxiety, syns are stupid. Going out for a meal also was dreadful. Calorie counting I chill a bit more now. Eat healthy, but also not obsessing😊Jess x

    Thank you. I’ve joined SW and then quit because it doesn’t work so so many times. I blamed myself that I didn’t do it right. I struggled with speed food because no one in my house will eat those things which left me with food waste. I tried to clamp down and stop coming up with my own ideas and only eat what I found on the app or in the hundreds of £ I spent on cookbooks. Again, leaving me with food waste. And it didn’t work. It never worked. I’d get tiny losses and then gains and then losses. And the only way I’d lose is to COUNT and then tell lies in group about how I was on plan which left me feeling bad for lying and worrying about being exposed. So I’d quit, AGAIN. And the doubt I’d feel in what others were saying in group left me feeling like a big fat grump. I’d come away thinking, that 5lb loss you got, you just didn’t eat. Don’t lie that you ate nothing but pasta dishes and hundreds of yogurts. Ha. And sitting there clapping for losses knowing when it was your turn you’d hear the awww what can you do next week to get a result. I’d be like, starve because I was 100% on plan. Only to be told, you must have had too many syns. Errrm no, I had too many potatoes! 😡 But anyway, I’m so happy to hear of someone else that says it didn’t work for them. My friend got to target. It works for her. I was so jealous and hid my feelings from her. And she is my friend, I shouldn’t have to do that. Not to mention telling her lies about what I was doing to get results. Quitting freed me from stress and guilt. I still struggle but now I know it’s because i made bad choices that week and not because I’m a failure. Will definitely follow you because it’s great to find someone that understands the struggle. Thank you again.

    My friend has lost 21lb in 7 weeks on SW and eats none stop! I'm talking massive lunches and stuff. I however don't eat as much as her, I'm within a sensible deficit and can't get more that 1lb off as a mean number. I'm upset and frustrated. I'm convinced my friend is taking something and not declaring it as her losses are 3.5 and 4lb every single week without fail. 😒

    So I’m doing SW but this time I’m coming from a CC mindset. I’m intermittent fasting until lunch and then having a super free lunch and some fruit (nothing overboard), my ‘free food’ (rice, pasta) I’m still weighing to ensure I don’t go crazy. I portion out food…if it says it serves 4 then that’s what I do…I make 4 portions. If it says that it’s free, I take that as it’s low calorie so it’s ok to have a rationed portion of it. I drink mainly water, black coffee and the occasional sugar free squash. I stay relatively low on the syns front (between 1-5).

  • @honeyfaulkner2961
    @honeyfaulkner2961 Рік тому

    I know it is easy to go under or over what you need, but this menu as described is not fully on plan because you are supposed to have one third of your plate as speed food (very low calorie) which makes it impossible to fit half a pack of spaghetti, half a pack of mince, or the extra spud on your plate, unless you were eating from a bin lid. Only the oats meal was "fully on plan" . Customers are also advised to eat until they are satisfied, not eat all they can.

    My only fear here is that I am a junk food eater so instead of using my calories on proper food I would straight ahead go to, chocolate, crisps and wine for example, watched this because I too seem to have come to a standstill with slimming world

  • @user-fk8rb8ue5h
    @user-fk8rb8ue5h 2 роки тому

    Assumption will be made that if you are losing weight you have to put yourself in a calorific deficit without counting calories because you are doing so on the slimming world plan.

  • @everyday316
    @everyday316 2 роки тому

    Good video. Thanks for posting.. When calorie counting you realise which foods keep you full and which don't. For me.. Eggs or a big salad. Low cal, don't need to eat for 8 hours after.. Nutrient rich, the pounds fall off

  • @reeree17992
    @reeree17992 2 роки тому

    Having studied nutrition prior to joining slimming world I think the thing that people forget is slimming world is teaching us the better options for our bodies the more fuel like foods rather than calorie counting as calorie counting tends to make people more restrictive of what they eat and they will be more likely to fall off… slimming world is long term you can’t calorie count your whole life or just until you get to where you want or you will just end up putting the weight back in quickly afterward. Overall weight loss is calories in vs calories out but surely you would rather over eat on something knowing it’s doing good for the body 🤷🏽‍♀️

    Exactly! I had no education regarding the importance of the inclusion of protein which I have found out is VITAL to fat loss. Also weight loss does not equal fat loss. Needless to say I left. I am now inches down after joining a gym, increasing protein and resistance training.

  • @janetdaniel9661
    @janetdaniel9661 2 роки тому

    I do calorie counting but with Sw as it is healthy eating; Slimming world does say at the start of book says every thing in moderation. If I'm on plan I come out at 1200 calories

  • @burleydavid4075
    @burleydavid4075 2 роки тому

    I also think the our lifestyles play a huge part, I lost 5 stone (I have put 1.5st back on) in six months (I am a man, also), but I went from eating everything all day to basically cooked chicken for lunch, mugshot as a snack etc, like not proper meals but tbh I am very lazy and do not cook so I was happy eating like that, but I was going to the gym ALL the time! So if I ate more (and I never did SW properly, like 80%) I would continue to lose weight, however when I met my partner all we did was walking so we would be going to buffets all the time and I would still lose weight, and I mean some days we would walk 10 miles and this was quite a normal thing so I was eating awfully but I was still losing weight. We now live together and both work FT and honestly I struggle so much, I keep binge eating and I have no idea where that comes from and definitely do not do the exercise we once did, barely leave the house a lot of the time! Now my mum has lost doing CC, she cannot do SW (for the reasons you describe in your video) and she’s doing extremely well. Now I just cannot do it, I’m too much of an eater and I think it’s that element of SW that I like, where I would eat less than CC, because I find with CC I eat all my calories too early and then I’m starving in the evening and then think f**k it, I’ve failed, I’ll binge which obviously explains the weight gain. Really this is just my observation and totally not a criticism, more at myself. I think like for me at least it’s still having that control, and I find with CC you can have anything, but I think that can be a detriment to some, especially me as like I said I’ll eat all my calories too early, but on SW I wouldn’t do that. Really good video though!!

    Calories in...calories out...I just restarted SW to focus my mind but I never eat unlimited amounts of anything as that will take me over what I need to consume to lose weight. My theory is cut the crap and bad sugar and count calories...and keep moving. I concur with everything you say ..I have only ten pounds to lose and if I don't do that before Christmas then I'm back to other methods...and I won't be at SW year on year...
