Hi! SW group member here! I think you explained things very well! The only thing I would add which can be extremely important to most peoples weightloss... It's true that you can eat free and speed food without weighing and with no limit but your appetite. There is a guideline SW offer for portioning. They reccomend everyone fills AT LEAST a third of their plate with speed food. And to reach for speed (before anything else) between meals. Some people can lose purely on free food but everyone will have better losses with 1/3 speed and 2/3 free food. It's called speed because it "speeds up your weightloss". I hope that's helpful to anyone reading this ❤
Great video well explained . The Slimming world books and meetings can be a little confusing when you first start but this video gets you up and running and with the shopping list it helps set up your first week of planning. Keep these video's coming they will definitely keep me on track. 😉
I am new to this too second week and I think I need a diary for food for the week and scan everything with my app as there are so many different brown breads out there for example I’ve got a lot to learn thanks for adding this video it’s fantastic.
Great video & explanation but I think the syns for the popcorn may be wrong - depending on the size of bag the sw app is saying between 4 and 4 1/2. Or maybe this bag is smaller - would love to think it is and I'll go and get some myself as I love popcorn. Such a great low syn treat xx
Hi. Only just found you today so have subscribed to your channel and following you on Indrsgram as well now! Loved your chat about Slimming World. Thanks so much. I totally get it now. First time I've understood it. Gong to buy the diary from Amazon. Do you have a TH-cam video for healthy snack ideas? XX
Just like to point out that not all veg and fruit is speed food. Speed food is low density foods like lettuce, tomato, carrots, kale. You can't have avocado, peas, sweetcorn, banana etc as a speed food, these are included in your free foods and avocado is syns.
I was on SlimmingWorld a few years ago I was 27 stone 9lb I lost about 7 stone am now 20stone 7 started a week ago am now 20stone just need to plan and work out my syns as not sure what am aloud and just need to work out my carb weights I need I have rejoined the gym need to start love your videos
Hi thank you for your video it was really helpful I’ve ordered the starter books and paper food diary👍 l just wanted to enquire if you can have the quakers flavoured packets of porridge or does it have to be unflavoured? I’m doing my online shopping ha 😂
Hiya chelle , So pleased. I came across u in my search to find out more about Sw ! Like u I didn't want to join class or go online ,..tried so many over the yrs but this plan is the only one I haven't for some reason ? It all seemed a bit daunting but hey u have explained it all great !! ..ty so much , good luck on your journey hun , I will have to start to plan mine and get everything in place ready 👍💐terri x
I think I'm getting confused with the healthy extras. It says one healthy extra a and one healthy extra b. ? But if your having an extra easy day I healthy a, and 2 b's?.x
I’m single and i spend around £25 a week on SlimmingWorld without shopping around to much. When I was married we were spending a little more, maybe £30ish
Thank you, great video! I find it difficult with syns as I use them up too quickly early in the day. I get cravings at 9pm each night and then it all goes wrong! Thanks.
From following the principles of slimming world i know generally what is syn free and cooking from scratch helps too. Anything im nit sure on i check my book or search online
Thank you I'm in Australia and loss why in England, we have so much packages of food I spent two hrs in my supermarket with my syn count,and has taken me a week just to write out my shopping list and some of your receipes for a week lol thank you .I can't buy jaffa biscuits because I ate the lot yesterday .Thank you so much love following your utube cooking .
I have been doing SW on and off for years ...the last time it didnt work and I gave up....I will try cutting my syns back,that might help.....Why as a size 10 are you doing slimming world....I am a size 18...I really have to do it now🤔🤔🤔
Calories in and calories out is the best and most effective long term way to loose weight and keep the weight off. I recommend working out the calories of what you are eating so you aren't dependent on them in the long term. "Free food" has calories. If you eat more than you burn you won't loose.
I've just ordered the books from eBay after listening to this. So is there just one plan now. I know they used to give the red and green day options. But looks like it's all one plan now which seems much easier!x

What a gloriously simplified explanation, thank you Michelle! Yes, you have to do a slimming world blog! X

Yes of course, I was just generalising making a quick reference
Nice yoghurt but expensive.

glad it was helpful and good luck :) I buy the golden syrup as don't really like the plain ones :)
Some of the meal ideas look great i am going to be starting soon x

I don’t like yoghurt one bit
Ever so useful. I can’t afford to join slimming world so your site is wonderful for me
I'm really glad you've found it useful. I've filmed quite a few what I eat in a day videos and weekly meals so hopefully they help :)
Its costly joining slimming World and £6 a week to get weighed
Extremely informative 👍
loved your video keep making them they are very helpful so many good ideas for meal preps 🙌🏻
Thank you :)
Chell l be going out shopping but
are the size of the meals limited
The smoked salmon has alot of salt.
Great video ... going to treat myself to the book.
This has been very helpful, would love to see "how I cook them" videos as I am very new to cooking. Thankyou
Thanks Gemma, I just uploaded a cook with me video :)

Thank you, it was from blinds direct :)
@@AtHomeWithChelle Fab, thank you 😊 x
Thank you for sharing
Thanks for watching!
Tank you. Great explanation
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you so much for this video. I’ve just started my weight loss journey.
Have done SW before...am away to dig everything out ...x
good luck :)
Another suggestion is do it with somebody you know
Great tutorial, I’m am going to give this a go. Thank you for sharing.
Love the meal ideas thanks . Any breakfast ideas
You can get a good slow cooker from Argos called a crockpot
I think I'm getting confused with the healthy extras. It says one healthy extra a and one healthy extra b. ? But if your having an extra easy day I healthy a, and 2 b's?.x
Hi, you can have 1 healthy extra b and 2 healthy extra a's. Not sure on the extra easy as it's not something I do x
Well done 😘 x👍💪
thank you :)
You can have a little bit of avocado.
Loving your videos, my body does not react well with cows milk so would coconut milk be okay?
Hi, yes I'm sure it would be fine :)
Hello I'm new to ur channel witch I'm loving by the way I just wanted to know what slimming world are u on the group or the digital? Xx
Aww thank you for subscribing :) I'm just following the principles myself, I didn't actually join x
How much a week do you spend? Finding SlimmingWorld expensive x
I’m single and i spend around £25 a week on SlimmingWorld without shopping around to much. When I was married we were spending a little more, maybe £30ish
Love this video, you have a very listenable voice. Makes me want to try harder with slimming world.
Aww thank you so much as I hate my voice haha x
Thank you, great video! I find it difficult with syns as I use them up
too quickly early in the day. I get cravings at 9pm each night and then it all goes wrong! Thanks.
I find if I fill myself up more throughout the day with Carbs & protein etc I don't get as hungry :)
Just watched the video. Have done it before unsuccessfully in group.
Going to do it at home instead.
Check out Dr Ekberg on youtube, he will explain why the cravings. You eat too often and the wrong foods. Also Dy Ann Parham has a phenomenal channel.
Inspired!
thank you 😊
Hi I have been doing s w on and off went back other week but finding it hard to get in to it your video is really good going to follow you x
I find planning is key. if I plan my food I'm much more likely to stay on plan 😊 How are you doing now?
How do you work it all out if you don’t have a syn counter please
From following the principles of slimming world i know generally what is syn free and cooking from scratch helps too. Anything im nit sure on i check my book or search online
Thank you I'm in Australia and loss why in England, we have so much packages of food I spent two hrs in my supermarket with my syn count,and has taken me a week just to write out my shopping list and some of your receipes for a week lol thank you .I can't buy jaffa biscuits because I ate the lot yesterday .Thank you so much love following your utube cooking .

Not a cheap diet then, I can’t afford those foods.
You can just follow the principles and eat cheaper foods like pasta and veg etc
Hi Michelle
great thank you
Love the food haul 😋
Hi. Would you mind telling me how you work the syn values out please? Xx
Hi Julie, I use either the book or if it's not in the book I search online and can generally find them that way x
It generally works out at 20 kal is one syn so the pop corn would have been four and a half syns not two xx
Very helpful ! I may give it another go
Thanks Lucy :)
Hi.chelle loving your channel would love you to do what you eat in a day x

I think it is just one plan now and I find it really easy to follow. Hope you are getting on ok x
@@AtHomeWithChelle they've arrived so having a good look at them.x
So helpful and motivating xx

Aldi's food is mostly Bio engineered read the ingredients. That's why it's cheap. I would not support them
