Hi
I've been doing SW(online) for 7 weeks now, and have done pretty well and have lost 2 stone. I've been able to stick to it reasonably well, but there's a couple of things that lately have started to be on my mind.
The whole free food thing I feel works against me sometimes as I can still demolish a huge bowl of pasta or rice. This also doesn't really teach me portion control, and for the last couple of weeks I've actually been weighing and measuring a lot of my free foods as well.
The other thing is that after this length of time I'm starting to find my food choices very restrictive which leads to the odd binge. I know I have syns, but they also can be very limiting in quantity.
My wife has been doing WW with Pro Points since our second child was born, and she loves it. We had originally decided I would do SW because seemed to suit my eating style more, but now I'm not so sure. I watch jealously as she enjoys a Crunchie, and then later on she can have toast, or maybe cereal - all in the one day!
So I'm seriously considering the move, I'm going to research it more, and finish this week on SW (weigh in on Sat). And then maybe try a week on PP to see how I get on.
Has anyone else made the move, or have any thoughts?
