I love to cook and I have been cooking everything from scratch for the last 5 years. It was rarely dripping in grease and always had some veg on the plate, the problem was the amount I was eating. I don't know much about sw but from what I hear it doesn't put a great focus on portion control. WW is about pp per portion so I've been weighing everything that goes on the pan or the plate and its been a lesson learned that is going to stick with me.Gosh, I'm quite surprised at this thread, it seems to be very much in favour of WW! I think they all work if you stick to them and it's important to find the diet that most closely matches what you'd eat given free reign. I don't find SW restrictive in the slightest and still eat all my favourite things, i just cook them differently, but I am a cooking from scratch girl all the way and always have been. I guess that makes a difference.
Each to their own like they say, I can only speak for myself and imho when it comes to dieting and learning to eat healthily portion control is high on the list of things to get right. I've been eating pretty much the same food as I was before but weighing it out and I've lost 7lbs in two weeks so it works for me
