Anyone converted from SW to MFP or do few days of each with success? I have had success with SW but so bored of the food. I could actually go calorie free all day or go for 8 mile run so I could eat a whole pizza right now

  • I did sw on and off for about three years. Switched to mfp at the end of March last year. I've lost over 3 and a half stone, only 4lb from target. I would overeat on sw, because pasta is free I would probably end up eating 600 Cals worth on top of the veg etc. Mfp gives me a lot better control, and yes I've gone off plan a few times, but I can log it if I wish, which makes me feel less guilty, or just move on. Good luck xx

    Thanks for the response that's great to know it works, well done!. How many kcals do you work to if you don't mind me asking. I've switched from.1200 to 1400 yesterday as didn't feel 1200 was manageable

    1400 will be fine, you can always reevaluate after a month or so. I'm 5'1", 204lb and set at 1500. I usually eat 1700-1800 and my exercise ensures I'm not 'over'

    If you want pizza, eat pizza, just make sure you're in a calorie deficit.
