So I have lost a stone doing ww but keep gaining and losing the same few pounds and still have another 2.5 stone to get to goal. My personal trainer at the gym recommended slimming world and I do know several people who have lost 5 stone doing it.

There aren't any meetings at convenient times locally so I would have to do it online and I'm not sure if I will actually do it. So my question is to those of you doing it online is it working or do you cheat?

Honestly? I signed up online and completely pissed the money away. It's too easy to not do it when you haven't got to be accountable in a class. That might just be me though. I do know one lady who managed to lose weight doing it online but she switched to a class and found it more motivating.

I did sign up so I will let u know. I think I am also going to read/join in on the big thread here to try and keep motivated. Fingers crossed I can do it as I really can't make any of the class times

Yes please, that would be fab! I am struggling with putting in the hard work at the beginning where you have to look everything up. Today I've been really good at meal times but made brownies for my dd and have had 2 but I have no idea of the syns! I need to sort it out.

I joined up this afternoon to start tomorrow, although I'm at a Christening tomorrow so hope I'll find something there. Not overly impressed with online so far, hope it grows on me and I guess the most important thing is that it has the info I need!

As expected, I so far have not done it and have in fact binged on junk food for the last 2 days.
Have found out the books (from a previous attempt) and am going to try harder). Sunday is my weigh in day and need to have lost something.
