Slimmg world online

I go to slimming world on a Tuesday but never stay for the session afterward as I don't feel it helps - does anyone do slimming world online? What's it like??
 
I used to be an online member for almost 18 months (haven't renewed this time because other things need paying first) but it's really good, the only thing you don't get is target membership so you still have to pay even at target
 
Do you have a certain day that you weigh in on? So if I say I'll get weighed on a Monday but miss it for some reasons, can I weigh in on another day and not get penalised? The same if I miss a week because of holiday?
 
You can set your weigh in day and also change it any time by emailing SW. You will get email prompts to weigh in, when I was on holiday I would just ignore them until my official weigh-in day and then weigh in, you don't get penalised for it :)
 
Oh ok, that's ok then. I know that you have to tell a group if you're not going to a weigh in otherwise you'll get charged. So it's nice to have that little bit of freedom if I forget to put the details in etc online, at least I know I wont get charged for it! Just signed up for online now - i'm so excited! x
 
Hello Jo Kate

Can I please ask if you have joined online? I was wondering if you are able to give a start date. I am wanting to join today but I'm not wanting to start untill Friday. Do you know if this is possible?
 
When I joined online this evening it asked for my weight and such now, then said my next weigh in would be next Sunday - i'm not sure if you can set it to actually start on a certain day or not. There may have been one that I didn't see but i'm not so sure i'm afraid xx
 
Good luck to you as well Scobyboo :) x
 
I think I'm going to go for it. I have been totally rubbish with other diets, and really need a boot up the behind to lose weight!! I was going to go to my local group
but now I think I would much rather join on line. I'm sure I read somewhere on here you can email and they will change your weigh in date so I will ask to change it to Fridays.
Thanks again x
 
Yeah I think I read that too - I want to change mine to Saturday as it fits in better with my life and my routines. If you ever need anything m'love then you know where I am - we are all here to help so if there's ever anything you need don't hesitate to ask :). In the long run if you register online and find that it's not working out you can cancel it no problem. Don't think of it as a diet, just think of it as a healthier life style xx
 
thank you again Jo, I appreciate your advice. I have just stood on the scales and I'm pretty sure they are broken :sigh:....... (not really).
What a shocker!!! I really must do this.
Thanks again x
 
Yes, you can email SW from the members bit online and ask them to change your weigh-in day. Your membership will only run for the time alloted though although you won't be penalised for not weighing in every now and then (holidays etc), your membership will still be taken - I always used to set a resubscription plan about 3 or 4 days before it was due to renew as it works out loads cheaper :)
 
Thanks Hun. I've emailed them to change my date to a Saturday weigh in as that works so much better for me :) x

Hello Jo Kate

Was wondering if you have started the diet yet? Or are you starting this Saturday, with next Saturday being your first weigh in?
 
Hi, I've been doing slimming world for awhile just switched from the groups to doing it online. My first weigh in from going "solo" is tomorrow so I'm excited :) x
 
Oh right ok. How have you got on? How long have you been doing Slimming World? My first weigh in is Sunday night,,, I'm not too sure how I have done. I don't feel any different x
 
I started up again in October but didn't really do that well so started again seriously in January. You might not feel different now if it's your first week as I've read somewhere that it takes 4 weeks for you to notice a difference in yourself. See what the scales say on Sunday. Do you think you've been good etc this week? Whatever the loss is you should be proud because it's a loss, don't feel disheartened if it's not as much as you wanted. Sometimes people loose weight slowly or the body isn't sure what's going on so retains the fat but you'll see it come off xx
 
Well... I have tried being good. But I found it really confusing to begin with. Healthy A's & B's, syn's, Free food!! What I am and aren't allowed. I must say, I also found the website quite confusing too, I couldn't find my was around! But I haven't eaten anything I shouldn't. I have logged all my syns. And tried to remember to log everything I've eaten and drunk. I have found some great recipes on here which were really easy to make and were nice, I'm not much of a cook! I'm learning about things everyday. But it will be a real let down come Sunday if I haven't lost anything :sigh: x
 
Please don't feel down if you haven't lost anything. Sometimes the body goes into starvation mode if there's a change so you won't see much a loss. If you loose like 1lb and feel down, google how much 1lb actually is as it's a huge huge amount. It sounds like you've done really well Hun xxx
