Anyone starting or doing Slimming Pod

I've just signed up for this last night.
I've read the reviews and some posts on Mumsnet and it seems to actually work so I'm excited to get stuck in.

So far I've listened to the pod and watched the Level 1 videos. Haven't done my three wins yet as obviously haven't had a full day yet!

Anyone else just starting or is doing this? Would nice to have a wee chat thread

I started this in May 23, didn't see any results after 3 months so ditched it. Plenty of people have found that it worked for them (see the FB page - some really inspirational stories).

I'm giving it another go as NOTHING else seems to work either!

Good luck!

Yes I started it on Sunday and I've noticed changes already.
I've definitely stopped fixating on food so much and mindlessly snacking.

I'm starting on Monday.

It does help, although I found it helped me find the motivation to exercise and then keep going with the exercise. The chillpod is also really good if you struggle to get to sleep.

Word of warning though. If you become part of the FaceBook group, don't ever think about posting ANYTHING negative...it'll either get taken down immediately or the moderator will be along to chastise you! 🙄

I know the page needs to be positive but when someone tries to explain how they're feeling about the weightloss (or lack of it), they get a verbal telling off. So be warned...

The Facebook page is ridiculous, you can't go against the "Slimpod is great!" narrative as they'll turn the comments off after telling you that you haven't reached out for additional support. What additional support they offer I've no idea.

I tried it for 6 months and unfortunately gained weight, although I did find it stopped me binging. Apparently my version of mindful eating isn't quite mindful enough for weightloss 😳

Am doing the free trial.
On day 3.
I keep falling asleep before it really gets going. But apparently that's ok. Fingers crossed!
Would love to chat with you all 👍
