Second nature - sustain

[Escapetothecuntry]

I'm almost finished Second Nature and I'm just wondering if anyone has continued after the initial 12 weeks?
40 quid a month seems expensive for more of the same but I'm wondering if anyone has any feedback.

I signed up too. Thanks again for the code :-)

I'm wondering about signing up again, would anyone mind sharing a code?

I did Second Nature a couple of years ago and lost a stone in 12 weeks: eating better and doing more exercise. The programme was annoying in lots of ways but I have to admit it did work for me I found the 'Sustain' after-programme a bit rubbish. Then the pandemic happened, and I put the stone plus more back on. I think the thing that worked for me was the accountability/support from the mentoring group alongside the recipes. However the mentoring group was also the biggest weakness: scripted prompts from the mentor, people stopped wanting to engage. I just wished it could have been better - more focus on the quality of mentoring, less on marketing. I think what would work better for me is having a mumsnet/whatsapp group alongside the Second Nature app to keep me better motivated to stick with it.

@Todaywillbegood - when are you starting?
I'm 1 June

@campingfever although I've signed up, I don't think I have access to codes yet - we'll have to have a thread when we've all started!

@thinwomansbrain I started this week. End of day two and I'm finding it a struggle but have stuck with it impressively (for me!).

@campingfever I've sent you a code. It's good to hear it worked for you before. That's going to help me keep going this week.

The number of people in the group seems too big at the moment but a lot will drop off soon... I noticed two have already gone by day 2. I don't want to wish anyone not to do well but I imagine the support will be better with a smaller group.

HI @Todaywillbegood - how's it going?
Apologies for asking and not coming back for ages - sort of forgot weight loss while I was away
I start on Monday - or Tuesday as Monday is a bank holiday. The books arrived today, and I've just watched a documentary about ultra processed food. I think I'll play it on iPlayer whenever I get the urge to eat crap!

Currently resolved not to eat anything that's not wholefood ever again

I'm still planning to rejoin - thanks for the code I'm thinking of starting in July as I'm a bit broke this month

I've just finished SN 12 week programme. I didn't fully give it my attention but lost 5lbs. I've now got to decide whether to rejoin the 12 week programme afresh or do one of the short programmes. I still have a stone and a half to lose. Has anyone any advice or indeed has anyone a discount code please?
