Hello

[Lolly_pop]

Hi everyone im holly and ive been deserve to lose 2 stone for years now and am finally at my wits end.. Ive tried ww and sw and both work when i stuck to it but i can never sustain it..... So now looking to try mfp and just do it the good old fashion way by eating less...... Does anyone else do it this way and does it work or is it back to a commerical diet plan for best results???

All advice welcome x

I to have tried SW and WW and have started MFP I think sometimes you need a new diet to mix things up a bit. I'm hoping the scanning device on mfp will make it easier.

I don't like the word "diet", prefer to call it healthy eating!

I lost 1 1/2 stone in 10 weeks at Sw, ate more than I would usually, did not feel hungry or deprived of any food. Enjoyed trying different easy recipes, and the weight loss was the icing on the cake! I plucked up the courage and went on my own, be good if you have a friend to go with, that way you can support and encourage one another. I was determined and believe you me, 1 1/2 stone is a lot to be carrying around everyday, feel so much better mentally and physically

Hi Lolly_pop (Holly) welcome to the weight loss forum

I prefer doing the NHS 12 week plan and don't see it as a "Diet" but a new healthy way of eating

Here we have a weigh in every day - but you just pick one day a week and there is always someone to chat to and ask advice etc, your not having to wait to the day the SW or WW class is

I'd like to invite you to join our Newbie Club, where you can meet other new members, who are also just starting out. . Here's the link

If you just post a few words to introduce yourself and respond to others there, you'll soon break the ice

I've also given you a week 1 badge.

Wishing you all the best

Hi Holly,

Dont know what is WW , SW or mfp.

Anyways I have realised, that its not about eating less or more, but its about Eating Mindfully.

Please read this blog .. gaiam.com/blogs/discover/ze...

I have switched to mindful eating 3 years back and since then I have forgotton about the concept of eating more or less.

You just need to eat mindfully each and everytime and at least 50% of your problems will get solved this way.

All the best
