Anyone 'gone it alone?'

Did you succeed?
I've lost about three stone so far and it was all going great...
But then my lovely consultant retired. A woman took over the group who doesn't seem to like me that much, though I can't really figure out why.
I feel a bit mocked when I gain, I'm the only one who has exactly how much they've put on out when it happen and I feel pretty unmotivated and fed up.
I'm pretty sure I could manage alone but when I mentioned it to someone else who goes they essentially said 'Nooooo stick at it, you'll put it all back in if you leave.'
I think I'll be a lot happier and less stressed.
(This woman runs all of the groups near me bar a few that are run by her friend so finding another group isn't really an option)

Sorry that should read that I'm the only one who has the exact amount I've put on read out.

Heya, your consultant is totally out of order for telling everyone how much you gain, especially when that isn't the norm for the group. Are you sure her friend won't be a bit different? You should also call Slimming World head office and report her, I would!
I went it alone and lost loads of weight, but then ended up putting it all back on when I went through a major depression. My Mum left and managed to maintain for a while before putting it back on. For her it definitely helps being at the club, but for me it doesn't seem to make much different. I hope you manage to find something that works for you.

I'm doing it alone but am following threads on Facebook. I've only just started this week though.
I'm doing a lot of the recipes and have lost 3lb even though it's AF week.
It'll be harder the next couple of days as I'm at work. I work 13 hour shifts. I'll take soup.
I too think you should report that bitch consultant.
