have been doing SW on and off for more years than I can remember but have found that I am getting fed up with the so called "unwritten rules" or "tweaks" as they are termed, the plan is supposed to be flexible but I find that it isn't and the fact I regularly suffer with constipation (something that has this weekend been very painful), the fact that the consultants don't all give same information and the worse thing of all in my opinion is that SW don't appear to care whether their consultants are at or near target before letting them set up their groups and train them - how can a person who is struggling with their own weight loss encourage those who we also struggling.
I have had a big think and have decided that for me the way forward is with WW as it is more flexible and (despite what the SW diehards say) I have never been hungry on WW.
Plus being a working parent carer with a disabled child, who has an active social life (him not his parents) I need a plan that is easy to adapt around this and be flexible enough when we have our camping adventures, our bird watching trips etc - without having to haul half the fridge with me (felt like it on SW because I couldn't just have a couple of sandwiches n a packet or crisps)
I also like having my Herbalife shakes for breakfast and lunch (on days when I am working) as it is more convenient for me on the days I work and I will be able to continue to do so following the WW plan. The Herbalife shakes and supplements are important to me as I find that when I am having them, I am more focused, more active and feel in control as I only have to think about one meal.
Regrettably, I cannot get to a WW meeting as the local ones are at times that are inconvenient for me so I will be following the plan on-line at home. I have just treated myself to a new pair of all singing all dancing scales which should arrive by end of week.
Sorry for rambling on a bit but I felt I need to clear my head and putting it down in writing which has made me realise I need to do this.
