    Anyone else suffering under the regime of a money-driven Slimming World Consultant?

    As someone who has been in both SW and WW, I agree that the marketing of the bars, books etc in SW is much less than in WW, which to me is much more profit driven.

    2013 New Starters - Let's get this done!

    I joined last night. I had previously lost 4 1/2 stone with WW but have put just over 2 stone back on and fancied a change from counting points. I've just had a massive lunch of tinned salmon (free) pasta (free) loads of salad (superfree) and extralight mayo (1 syn) followed by a bowl of fruit...

    Sooo annoyed at shop lady!!!

    Just after Alli was on sale OTC, I was approached by a promotions girl in Boots asking if I was interested. At that time, I'd just lost 4 1/2 stone with WW (though have put some back on since:rolleyes:) and was actually on the cusp as to whether I needed it or not. I was fuming....(a) as I was...

    Hectic Week and a question for you all..

    No, it wouldn't put me off. My house is 100 years old, I'm sure there's been a fair amount of death and mental illness in it....I just wasn't aware of it. If you weren't aware, would you still move there?

    Ladies... TOTM. :(

    I was going to post something about this last night....I went to WW and put on half a pound (day one of period). OK not the end of the world as I know it's just a minor fluctuation and is probably just fluid retention but it's disheartening.

    Wednesday Weigh In anyone?

    I put on 1/2 lb.....in my defence I started my period this morning, so I'm hoping it's fluid retention.

    My Cat's not fat!

    My cat is very trim (despite eating like a little piggy...he loves his food!) My neighbour's cat is a little porker though and his owner says he eats and eats and eats....she had to get him a collar reading 'do not feed' as he kept going to the neighbours looking for more food!

    People on cholesterol tabs, yay or nay??

    My husband's on them, and hasn't reported any side effects, except for getting his cholesterol down! His cholesterol is now down to normal levels, but the GP wants to keep him on him cos he's overweight. I'd prefer him to lose weight and keep his cholesterol low that way, but he likes his beer...

    I found a huge lump in my breast!

    Good luck...here's hoping it's just a cyst or something. Fingers crossed. The NHS is very hot on this kind of thing, they'll see you as soon as possible.

    Turning Points

    What was your turning points to make you decide to lose weight? A few years back, I developed a plantar fasciitis (heel spur)-a google search said excess weight was a primary cause. It's not a serious condition, but made me realise unless I did something about my weight I could get some...

    Depression and stress, etc

    I've been treated for depression for the past year, but TBH was struggling for some time before that as well, but didn't want to admit it. I work as a community mental health nurse so knew full well I was depressed, but for some reason couldn't get round the fact I needed help for my own mental...

    Oh Yes here it is - Xmas Challange

    I'm a nurse. I'm in mental health, and work in a community mental health team.

    Newbie Alert

    yeah, I didn't want to get back to my old weight. My sister in law lost several stones before she got married, then got pregnant straight away and put it all back on and some. My niece is now 2 and she's still not managed to shift it. I didn't want that to happen to me.

    Excercise on Prescription = Scared

    I think it's a brilliant idea-some PCTs do slimming classes on prescription too. Far, far better than handing out Orlistat or referring you for surgery IMO (no disrespect to those using these methods, I just hold the opinion that most weight problems are lifestyle rather than medical problems...

    I must admit to being bores dtupid in the gym on the machines and weights, and only really enjoy the classes. Step aerobics is my favourite class, but I also do aqua aerobics, Zumba, body conditioning, and sometimes spinning, (tbh I don't really enjoy that, prefer cycling outside when it's warm...

    Favourite places to holiday?

    My favourite holiday place was here in the UK...St Ives in Cornwall. Love love love the place! If you get the weather, you can't beat it. I also like going to Ireland-Dingle in Kerry is my favourite part of Ireland. Abroad, I love Mallorca.

    Newbie Alert

    I lost 4.5 stones a few years back via WW, and was delighted with myself. I went from 17 stone to 12 1/2. This past year or so has been tough, I was diagnosed with depression last year, then earlier this year my Mum lost her battle with cancer. :cry:The result....I've put 2 stones back on.:sigh...
