slimming world

[nannon]

oh my god - have just read the sample menu on their website - i cant belive the amount you can eat! a few questions:
- Do you have to eat that amount?
- Does it cost you a fortune to buy all the food?
- What exactly is the concept - just dont eat meat at the same time as carbs?
- What are Syns?
Is it worth joining? i may go to join tonight! have had enough of weight watchers!

Thanks!

Hi
I think SW is far better than WW - easier to follow.
- you dont have to eat that amount but the certain basics yes
- no was cheap to do
- you have red (meat based days) or green (veg and pasta) based days. Either one any day. Green good for nonmeat eaters.
- Syns are little treats - say a Kit Kat/glass of wine is a number of sins - there is a max for each day.

I really did well on it and am doing it again from home.

Go and do it - its good!!

HI
I joined slimming world after I put on over 6 stone with pregnant
It's the best eating plan I have ever tried and I have tried them all !!!!!!!!!
The green days are cheaper cost wise to follow than red days as it's mainly pasta potatoes where as red days is mainly meat
The draw back can be cooking everything from scratch but then if you cook in bulk and freeze that can work out cheaper too
I tend to eat lots of fruit which is free and if you go to markets etc you can get loads cheaply and when you win slimmer of the week it is usually a basket full of fruit so you have enough for the week!
Good look with it
