It might just be me, but that seems a little harsh....

He's just trying to make suggestions and be helpful. Maybe he's hit a nerve on some subjects, but I'm sure it wasn't on purpose.

Most people come here looking for advice on how to loose weight. What you've got is suggestions from him on how to do that. It's obviously worked for him since he's only got a few more lbs to go, but his suggestions may not work for you, because of the reasons you've mentioned. But he wouldn't know that ahead of time.

As for the products he suggested, maybe there's similar ones available in the UK? I live in Canada so I understand it's a little frustrating to get suggested US products. I've usually be able to find something similar to those suggested, but sometimes takes a little effort.

Are you looking for different ways to loose weight? Or for motivation on your Slimming World plan? (I believe there's another recent member on the board who's on this plan as well).
