[QUOTE="seanj67, post: 1892824, member: 114574"] I'm currently trying Wight Watchers online ( or WW as it's now known). I tried Slimming World a couple of weeks ago and after one meeting decided it wasn't for me, along with the fact that pasta rice & potatoes formed a lot of the meals most people ate and they were "free foods" to be consumed as much as you liked.... that was never going to work for me, so I signed up to WW online. Everything other than veg is basically accountable, and the difference is it teaches you portion control - once you've used your allocated points for the day that's it! My aim is not long term but more as a kick start. I'll be honest, at times I have felt slightly hungry, but that's because I'm adapting to smaller portions of food. Week one I lost 5lbs without much effort. I think most people accept that slimming clubs don't generally work long term, but I do think that's the fault of the people doing them. Like any diet, you only get out what you (don't) put in. :) [/QUOTE]
