Stellaboz Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 Some people just don't want to accept that losing weight will take a bit of effort and some fucking responsibility. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest bernardblack Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 Mrs BB doesn’t need to lose weight but when she decides she does it is always the same crash diet that will never be sustainable. I try to suggest that watching what you eat, but not going crazy, with some exercise is a better combination....but no apparently expensive slimming meals are the option. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Working out how much mayonnaise can be eaten with a burger? Much simpler. Slimming World is a piece of piss to get results from, if you can be arsed. If you're finding it soul destroying you're taking it too seriously or don't want to do it in the first place. The War Department took me to classes when we were doing IVF and I binned three and a half stone in a summer. I could probably have achieved as much by doing what SW advised - cut out the full bunner Irn-Bru, eat less bread, stop buying house biscuits - but it was worth going to keep winning slimmer of the week to the disgust of various Karen's and Angela's who thought losing one and a half pound a week was an achievement despite consuming nowt but gin between weigh-ins. Never changed the quantity of sauce, mayo, etc I ate or put on anything tho. If you're micromanaging it to that extent you're never going to get anywhere. Nutella and Slimming World don't go tho. Hell no. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nsr Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 We terrified a new starter at Slimming World on one occasion just after my wife had given birth to our daughter and the SW leader jokingly congratulated her on losing 15 pounds in a week. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dee Man Posted June 19, 2019 Author Share Posted June 19, 2019 Trying to watch a film together and she starts talking about or asking about what other films/TV shows certain actors have been in. I do not give a f**k. Let me enjoy the film. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimmy Shaker Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 f**k knows how long we’ve had Sky for, or for how long she’s lived in houses which have also had Sky, but somehow she has not memorised the number of a single channel and still needs to use the planner to find anything. Naturally, scrolling is still done channel at a time, and not page at a time. And she can’t use the remote control without looking at it. And this means we regularly find ourselves in a situation where she’s taken so long to look down at the remote control to find the right button that the number pressed previously has disappeared off the screen. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
