I would just like to say to all of those who are trying to lose weight then please do it sensibly. I have been on so many diets and just ended up putting on more. I joined Slimming World 5weeks ago and I'm eating loads and I feel great, I've lost 12lbs so far, its weigh in tonight hopefully I can get my stone. I would recommend it to anyone, especially if you have a big appetite. The bets thing is I can still have my favourite things crisps by using my sins.

I think those kind of Weight Watchers/Slimfast/etc things are kind of gimmicky (sp?) but if they get results it doesn't matter what I think.
Now once you get to your goal what are you going to do?
Yep, they are just a way of motivating people. It does work, just at a high cost. LOL remember that comparison I did with a Weight gain drink Alex?
The Slim Fast milkshakes are pretty good and I found they did work, as long as you keep them up for more than a week. The only thing was that they god a bit boring after week what with having 2 a day lol. I ditched the idea, now I'm just watching what I eat and sorting the exercise thing out!
Yeah they do work. Have two a day (chocolate tastes best) and some fruit then a proper meal in the evening. You can have healthy snacks too.
BUT, a friend of mine said it didn't work for her, we later found out that she was eating crisps ans chocolate when she got home from uni!!
A tip though, they are expensive (RRP £1.15) but you can get them in Savers for only 69p, or a multipack of 6 for £3.99 (RRP £7).
I don't know if Savers is a national chain though!
sorry just a bit of an in joke between me, Allessandro, and other people who know about them....
