    Yes I am !!! Ive lost half a stone with them before when I only went for three week :) I started back last week and have 2st and a half to lose before june :) I'll let u know how my weigh in goes today !! I use MFP to keep track of the calories but I barely go over because the focus on fruit and veg and limited fried/junk food has you on a low daily calorie intake ! I definitely recommend it !

    I've been on it for 8 weeks. It's great as I don't feel hungry and its easy to stick to but the weight loss is slow - 10 pounds in 8 weeks. I'm going to try calorie counting on the plan to kick start the weight loss a bit

    Been on it 2.5 weeks, lost 5lbs, really pleased and enjoying what I'm eating - just joined the UK group - not sure if you wanted to do a search under groups and find some like minded SWer's. Good luck

    Hi

    I've just started back on doing Slimming World, but using MFP to track.

    I lost quite a bit a few years back, but have put it and more back on!

    I am aiming to lose 7lb a month!

    I tried it but it didn't work for me. I know a lot of people who've lost plenty of weight on it though! One of my best friends lost (and kept off) 5st and was nominated for their Biggest Slimmer award.

    I personally just couldn't deal with the fact that I was allowed unlimited amounts of pasta and rice. I lost just 2lb over 6 weeks and for 3 of those weeks I put ON weight... I have no willpower when it comes to pasta!

    Good luck :)

    I did it a couple of years ago and lost almost 2 and a half stone, I'm kind of following that now but also trying to stick within my calorie goal at the same time.

    Good luck and feel free to add me.

    I'm following SW but not using MFP to track as I found it too distracting calorie counting as well. I found I had to completely let go of MFP and focus on the SW way and it's working for me! :) Happy to have friend requests from others following SW! Also, feel free to follow my Instagram page which I've set up to track my progress @sw_hayley xx

    I started SW a month ago and have lost 7lbs - would have been more but I had 2 party weekends haha. My friend who joined with me has lost 16 lbs. I never in a million years would have thought I'd be doing SW - I'm just not a 'joiner' normally, but I love it!

    Edited to add: I know my ticker says 4lbs but that's cos I didn't reset it when I started SW. At my highest I was 13.9, now 13.2 :)
