How does Slimming World work?

First of all let’s bust some myths. Nobody will be calling out your weight to the group, judging your weight, looks or your habits, or forcing you to eat things you hate or making you cut out foods altogether. Joining a Slimming World group is a safe space to help you on YOUR personal journey to healthier and happier you.

If you’re using weight loss medication, Slimming World offers wraparound support and resources to help you build healthy habits and maintain your weight loss long term.

It costs £6.95 per week (£6.65 for over 60s). Membership includes weekly group support, plus access to the Slimming World app, recipes, activity ideas and tools to keep you motivated between groups.

The Slimming World healthy eating plan has been developed over 56 years, where you can enjoy delicious, satisfying, healthy meals made with everyday ingredients. Food Optimising has helped millions of people lose weight without ever feeling deprived! And you can learn more about how it works, and about protein, fibre and all the other buzz words in group.

Slimming World works for everyone, and there is extra support for members living with diabetes, going through the menopause, joining after weight loss surgery or whilst taking weight loss medications too.
