I used to do slimming world and then switched to WW. If you can't cook, WW I find is easier because there is more variety of what you can eat that is premade. They do some amazing ready meals and I know of alot of people that simply live off them. I lost 2 stone last year, kept it off up until June and have but it all bar 4lbs back on. After a trip to the docs and being sent for a blood test to see if I'm diabetic, I'm terrified, and have since heavily reduced sugar intake, cut all the "no added sugar" out, no artifical sweetner and already 3 days in I can't tell you the difference it has made.
I'm less bloated, my vision has improved in one eye (it was never perfect but it got quite bad), I'm going longer between meals and I'm not cravying anything sweet. Looking at these symptoms it's actually something called aspartame poisoning and it's really quite frightening the damage it does on your body, as it's an artifical product the body cannot break it down and can be dumped literally anywhere within your body. One thing that annoyed me with SW was with them, you can eat an unlimited amount of muller light yoghurts (within reason) and it can be "free" but have one tablespoon of flour and it is very high in syns, and your day is ruined. I don't understand it. I actually feel better on my few days of sugar free/sweetner free than I ever did when I was 2 stone lighter filling my face with anything that was "free on SW"
It's not easy, but the benefits of having far more energy outweight the negatives. You CAN do it. It's hard but you'll feel so much better on the inside as well as looking good on the outside too! I really urge anyone to think again about doing meal replacment diets; shakes, juices (rammed full of sugar, will not fill you up, I could go on), special K diets. It is really just down to eating right, healthily, cutting the crap, and trying to move more if you can. People want to be losing 10lb a week which is all well and good, but you aren't fuelling your body properly, and will pile it back on the minute you stop living off 2 shakes a day + 1 main meal.
Gonna stop my rant, but really happy to help with anything like this. You CAN do this, one lb at a time. Ask to be refered to SW/WW for free, and just sit in a meeting and see what it's all about before you decide to go ahead with anything, or even try both for a couple of weeks and see which you prefer.
Hope this helps hun! And hats off to you for wanting to do something and help yourself, too! That really is half the battle :) xx
