diet

[sleepy1]

i joined slimming world the other week , i have put on weight now weigh more than when i joined . why is it when you think about being on a diet you want to eat more ?

I know what you mean!

On slimming world you can eat pretty much unlimited food, although nothing that you fancy when dieting! I crave sausage rolls when I'm on a diet yet aren't too bothered about them when I'm not.

Sorry sleeps i laughed when i was reading your post. As this could only happen to you.

thanks ............... its very true must be because being on a diet makes you think about food more , i never drink but have drunk a bottle of baileys in last few .

It is all in the mind and the mind can play some real nasties!! A few months ago i had lost about 1/2 stone...that last pesky bit and I felt really good about myself. Sooo-I decided to treat myself to a fancy digi scale so i could moniter every ounce. I got on the damn thing and it told me I weighed AT LEAST 1/2 stone more than I thought! like I had NEVER lost anything!!!! grump,grump!! So what did I do....eat,eat,eat...went on a serious binge. Choc,biscuits,butter...whatever...!!! and I hated myself-all because of what the scales said. So just tell yourself you can eat whatever you want-take the pressure off yourself. I thought slimming world was 'sposed to be pretty good-let you eat most anything.

Hi Sleepy,
It might not be just cos you are eating rubbish. I went to slimming world and if I chose a "red" week I always put on weight, I could only lose weight if I stayed on the "green" week diet.
Good luck with it, personally I got bored and left after a few months weighing more than I started.
