All the information in the Slimming World books, online etc. is that you do not have to count calories on SW and that it is not about calories. However, since research shows that the only way to lose approximately a 1lb is to create a calorie deficit of 500 calories (by diet or exercise,) is this true? Or is it more that SW encourages you to eat filling foods with fewer calories, so you feel like you’re eating loads, but you are actually eating far fewer calories overall?
I assumed that this was how it worked. However, when looking at the books, some relatively low-calorie foods (porridge) are actually quite high in syns. So how does it work calorie-wise?
