I used to belong - but I prefer slimming world - the diet is easier to follow and I think that it is cheaper - I'm doing it on my own now and I'm doing well - good luck fruit salad

All diet clubs are a con in my opinion. They encourage you to believe that you can't do it without them, when in actual fact, unless someone from WW comes to live with you, you ARE doing it on your own. All the info is online free of charge.

Patience and will power is all you need.

Patience is critical as some weeks you will not see the result you want but stick with it and you will win in the end.

I have put two stone on since having to give up my vigorous exercise regime last october and just need that kick up the butt to get me started just cant seem to get in the right frame of mind for doing it by myself even though I know what I should and shouldnt eat Im just wondering if knowing I will be getting weighed each week in front of an audience will help me get motivated.

Elements of the membership programme seem designed to part you from your money, and some people claim that it is difficult to follow.

If however you think that the group focus will help you, it might be worth it.

I used to go about 15 odd years ago. It worked for me at the time. Of course it's changed now.

I have struggles with my weight for over 40 years. 2 years ago I decided enough was enough and I knew that I had to stop putting the 'naughties' in my mouth! Choccies, biccies, sweeties, crisps etc. But due to health issues exercise was out of the question and previous weight loss had been achieved with both diet and exercise. You can eat all foodstuffs but in the right proportions. I love soup so, cereal or porridge for breakfast, soup for lunch and a cooked meal at teatime. You don't have to make your own soup either, tinned from the supermaket is just as good. Within 15 months I had lost 3 stone and I can now have the odd treat or two. You can do it but you have to have the right mindset. Forget paying to be weighed, in this economic climate that money will pay for your food for a day.

Hi Susan well done - that is exactly what I'm doing and yes it works - I've lost 16ibs since the 1 January. My diet is exactly the same as yours even down to the supermarket soup now and again. I have been dieting since i was 6 years old when the doctor put me on slimming tablets I have been on every diet going and have tried hypnosis; acupuncture; xenical; psychotherapy- you name it I've done it. I am also snacking on fruit - this is working - like you I have restricted movement so I can't exercise - at the moment - keep it up - or should I say down
