Hi everyone,
After loosing 4 stone on Lipotrim 3 years ago, I then lost another half stone on low carb way of life. I have maintained my weight since more or less until sept of this year. I was very strict with myself whilst eating low carb and nothing sweet (even last christmas) passed my lips in that time. Especially the last year and half, no crisps, no choc. Nuts were my downfall but yet ok on l/carb. Went on hols in sept had some dark choc and the rollercoaster began. I spiralled out of control and decided to change my WOEating. I had done WW years ago and had lost weight. Loved the variety and the fact that if you want to have something sweet you can. Sorry about the long winded intro but just wanted to give a little background so you fabulous folks could maybe anwer a question or 2 for me... I started back doing WW last week. Ive now been doing it for 9 days. Haven't weighted myself as said I'd give myself 2 weeks first. I've been keeping to my points everyday while also keeping it low carb, ie no bread, pasta etc. I find i don't digest these very well. Question is this: have any of you switced from l/carb to WW with success? I've checked already some other posts but haven't really found anything. Also gave up smoking a month ago and im petrified of putting on weight so for me weight watcher is the only answer as it keeps me (hopefully will) in full control.
I'd really appreciate some advice, success stories with switching and helpful tips if you have any. Many thanks. xxx
