Better drink that water!
I have been speaking with various people about diets and the ones they've tried or just their opinions and I get so frustrated now.... People really slate SW. They don't like it because basically they cant cheat! I was talking with 2 women who are calorie counting/WW - they like it because they can basically starve themselves in the day and then binge in the evening - still staying in their cals. But they're not eating a balanced healthy diet and I think they're missing out on so much of the mind changes that SW gives.
Its so sad. I was telling someone the other day who wants to start SW after her pregnancy, that I think SW is better because it is not really diet but a change of lifestyle. Its not a diet that you can cheat but a healthy eating plan that guides you into a healthy (and for me more organised; meal planning, shopping lists, eating decent meals and actualy eating 3 meals a day!) way of life.
An outsider who hasnt looked into SW sees it as a chore with everything restricted but really its just the way we should be eating (obviously an extra HE or whatever it is if you're not wanting to lose weight)
I no longer call it a diet, I call it a healthy eating plan. Docs should recommend it. My doc said, do SW, WW or calorie counting. I thikn they should encourage people to just do SW then we'd maybe see a turn around in peoples health maybe?
