I don't want to go to a group but do like the sound of the plan.
Can anyone share their success stories of losing weight with SW digital plan?

I've just started doing it this way. My best friend is too and so far has lost 20lbs in 10 weeks!

I've lost 1 stone since the beginning of Feb with the online plan.

I'm just about to start the online plan as I'm struggling to get to a class now as I've changed jobs. I could do with a support thread to spur me on.

Something i would like to do.
Do you get sent the book like you would get at the meetings or all information is online?.

I joined on sunday. I had a sneaky weigh mid week and am already 5lb down. I've lost weight going to group before but due to lifes stresses and not controlling my demons, some weight went back on.
I'm not sure I'd like my first attempt at it to be solely online, as it can be tricky to get your head around it, and I appreciated a person to talk it through with me. Good luck!

All the information is online. The only tjing sent to me was the magazine.

So silly of me to realise this is a thing online. I might give a try myself tbh

I was thinking of joining online, does it cost the same as going to group?

I paid £45 for 3 months with an online code I found.

Yes I lost only doing SlimmingWorld on line 4 stone. Unfortunately put the weight back on but that's because I stopped dieting and exercising and started cooking badly again and eating too many biscuits 🍪

I started with SW online and got on well with it but then switched to group. Reason being at group once you get to target you can go get weighed for free and still have access to the app etc. With online you keep on paying even when you're at target. I knew I wanted to keep going (I get weighed at group at least every 8 weeks) to keep on track and maintain the weight loss.

I joined SW online about 3 weeks ago. Going great so far but could do with a bit of a support group.

Would anyone like to join a SW WhatsApp group? If so, please send me a message and I’m happy to set up!

I started online and lost a stone in 6 weeks. I used a code I found on here they then tranfered it to class membership for me.

I switched to classes and lost another 3 stone. This was over a year ago, I've put a little back on being lazy and not sticking to plan but my mum bought me the Pinch of Nom cookbook as an early Easter present so I am back on it 100%.

Depends on your motivation and also whether you feel you understand the plan from what you read online. I’ve been doing it 6 months and lost 3 stone 4 (am nearly 60) I didn’t even join online, and would rather spend the money on new clothes!
Some people join, go for one week, get the books then do it alone (if they need the info)
Obviously you need a good set of scales and to be motivated!

Apologies just posted this on another page but noticed this thread is specifically talking about online...

If you join online is it possible to buy the books? Any chance you could let me know how much they are? Trying to work out whether to go bronze or gold!
