I did the slimming world diet, and I did get obsessive on it. But I stopped myself before I was too silly, and then put on all of this weight and I'm trying to lose it sensibly and not noticing that I am dieting.... thanks though Deborah. :-) Chloe

HI Chole. Yes it does make sense. If you have read slimming world book, believe me it does get easier once your into it. And as you may realise there is no counting of cals at all. Good luck and keep strong deb

Thanks Deborah. Two reasons why I won't try the other one. I don't understand it. I've read the book, still don't entirely get it AND I have a past of being obsessive about my weight and counting calories, the no count suits me because I don't need to count them... does that make sense?

HI Chole. Its sounds a mixture of 2 diets to me. Amount of points per day, is the WW programme i did a couple of years ago. The other one is just like Slimming world. I prefer the latter and you can eat certain types of food all day. Might be good for you that one if you havent already tried it. deb

NC stands for No Count. You can eat as many of the No Count foods as you like, and have a point balance of 21 for one week for non no count food. You're supposed to have three full meals a day and no be hungry - but I struggle with it cos I'm so picky with what I eat. FC - Full Choice - basically you could every single thing you eat. Everything on this diet has points, and you're allowed a certain amount of points per day. I don't entirely understand this one though. It is a good diet plan - I just want to eat lots of nice things that I can't have on either diet, well in the quantity that I want them! LOL.

Thought we could start a little community. I'm also a member on their site, but the threads there don't get nudged up like they do here which is really rubbish if you ask me. I started in March, I've lost 18.5lbs - I put on a pound this week, not very impressed with myself. I'm a picky eater, extremely picky and I'm trying the NC diet cos on FC I'll get too obsessive. But I don't like many vegetables or fruits and finding it hard not to be starving. I hate salads so I ca'nt even make one of those up. SO WE HAVE A FEW MEMBERS FOR OUR LITTLE GROUP.
