Thread: Anyone else obsessed with food since starting slimming world???

Before joining I used to pick when I was hungry or just fancied. Since slimming world im obsessed. I get up in the morning thinking about what to have for dinner, then planning out the day. Taking time doing an online shop with asdas picking out each ingredient from recipes. When I have a few minutes I log on to minimins and do some reading. Just got food on my mind constantly!! LOL anyone else in the same boat.

yeah, I constantly think about food!!

Yep me too....I'm 5 weeks in now and still obsessed! Xx

I know what you mean though mine is more of a 'oooh I can have that AND that without feeling guilty' even went out for unscheduled lunch today and managed really well Used to just be obsessed with all the things I had banned my self from eating!

yes. Its weird how a jacket potato and beans can be soo much better for you on this diet than reaching for one chocolate bar. Thinking about my beef cassorole im thinking of cooking tomorrow and im drolling lol. So much nice food you can eat without the guilt xx

Yep totally!!

Yes me too, food is always on my mind now, just gone from Green Days to Red, so trying suss out this wks meals atm, this whole diet has made me think constantly about what i'm eating, i write down every thing i eat and write down the weeks evening meal on a white board thats in the kitchen, deffo an obsession here, i have to to do this or i go off plan

Definitely! The only thing stopping me from constantly cooking new recipes is lack of money and the fact that I live with my parents so most of the time my dad already has dinner planned, haha. Not that I'm complaining!

Me too. Om nom nom!

I think that's what make SW work so well - it's all about planning, and that means thinking in advance about what you're going to eat and getting excited about it! I think it does lessen as you do it for longer, but you still think about food for the majority of the day! LOL

I love food and think about menu plans all the time!! X

Foods always been an obsession with me. I love reading about it, watching cookery programmes on TV, cooking, thinking about food, talking about it and not least, eating it! Honestly, I never stop - and it's got worse since I started SW. I'm a lost cause!

Well it's having the desired effect all this thinking about food and planning meals etc....we're all losing weight which is the ultimate goal. Nothing wrong in that.

Welcome to the "food" club!
I must admit to thinking food morning, noon & night!
I am forever looking up ideas for SW meals and recipes, my wife has now given me total use of the kitchen (it stops us argueing!)
and this appears to work.............

I think about what I'm going to eat for the next week! I'm obsessed I need plan or else I will go off course!
