Slimming World Magazine

I never dreamt that the Slimming World ethos could be so simple but at the same time so effective and life changing. I wrongly assumed it was mainly for people who had a large amount of weight to lose, how wrong was I. After my first week, I remember feeling very nervous going back to class to weigh in as I felt I had eaten way too much food and expected to be told that I had gained weight. To my amazement I had lost 5 lbs and just couldn’t believe it as I only wanted to lose about 10 lbs. That gave me the confidence to carry on and I haven’t looked back since.

The magazines are brilliant, very easy to read and browse menus, so much easier than having to buy the paper magazine which then I used to spend ages sticking post it notes in and then figuring out where to store them! Two downsides which I really wish the App team would fix. The scrapbook is a wonderful idea as you can save any menu or article there, but you then can not use any sub folders or categories to organize them! You have one very large page where you have to spend ages searching for the one recipe or article you want. It is so annoying!! Plus, I can’t seem to enlarge a page if the writing is small or I want to get a closer look at a picture etc. If these two bug bears can be addressed, we would have ourselves an absolute gem!!

Loving the SlimmingWorld magazine stories. ! I have tried to lose weight for a couple of years , joining weightwatchers a few times without success. My cousin lost weight with SlimmingWorld and it seemed such an easy and healthy way so I’ve joined too and I am enjoying the lovely menus which are family friendly and I never feel hungry or deprived of a treat. The magazine stories are inspiring me to keep going after reading how people lose amazing amounts of weight !

This new app has more bugs in it than a fly net in the Congo. Does not allow me to download any issues as seems to be issue communicating with iTunes... bad enough that I have already had to wait nearly two weeks to be able to read the magazine that I subscribe to (and pay more for than I would have to if I bought a paper copy in group... how can a printed copy be cheaper than a digital one?) Only an email address to try and contact someone to get help sorting this... and no reply so far.. at least the old app worked and any queries were responded to promptly. Really poor show slimming world... this isn’t the service I expect when I pay membership and a subscription!

I have been anticipating the download of the new magazine as with most issues as everyone in my group has access a week before. I finally managed to download after a few bugs were sorted and was pleased to see a fully interactive issue with inspiring stories and recipes, as always.
