Not for me….

Amateurish website - so many spelling mistakes. Not a good impression. Videos were unbearable. Same old info that most people who have tried to lose weight are already aware of. I found them very condescending. And the daily texts! They just annoyed me, they didn’t motivate me. Having said that, I do think the ‘Slimpod’ recording was working for me. But £150 for a 9 minute recording - not for me. If you can put up with the condescending videos, worth a try for 10 days on the free trial.

Hi there Tracy, thanks for your feedback - we're sorry to hear how you feel about your Slimpod experience but it's great to hear that you've found some changes by listening to your Slimpod. We'd love to chat further, so please answer our request for some more information about you.

Easy to follow.

Easy to follow.
Food noise that was almost constant has really quietened down. I walk past 'goodies' in the shops and am rarely interested in them.
Guilt around a more occasional and smaller 'binge' is much less.
My portion control is so improved and I now stop eating when I am full.
I have started to notice a change in body size and clothes are definitely looser.

I’m really enjoying the Slim pod…

I’m really enjoying the Slim pod program and how it’s gently nudging me towards making healthy food choices whilst knowing I can still have the odd treat now and again.
I value the coaching videos very much as there’s a lot of really useful information in them and I also listen to the Slim pod every night before I go to sleep.
I don’t think if it as a diet, but more as a way of quieting down food noise, finding ways to know I can make myself full without getting sugar spikes and seeing the benefits of exercise as well.
I haven’t seen dramatic weight loss yet, but I certainly no my clothes are a little looser which is encouraging.
Anyway, I put on over Christmas has been lost and I am at my pre-Christmas weight although I am only weighing myself very occasionally.
I definitely recommend this program

Not what they claim to be

Claims to aid weight loss purely by listening to recorded messages. In reality they ask you to do extras, like writing daily positives and mapping out graphs for your 'journey'. Not great for a non achedemic ADHD person like me.
And now they've stopped their Facebook page which many people used for support and to share their experiences.

Hi there Becky - our clinical trial listed on our website was only conducted with the Slimpod to listen to, and 95% of participants lost weight. We have our coaching videos to guide you on your journey, and other tools to support your changing relationship with food, but if all you want to do is listen to the pods, you can absolutely lose weight and change your relationship with food doing so.
Regarding our online community - we've simply moved this to a new space, off of Facebook. Our community and support is still entirely there for you to use and communicate with our members on, it's now all in your members platform to use more easily. If you'd like to speak to our team at all, please email customerservices@thinkingslimmer.com as we're very happy to help.

did not work for me

Unfortunately SlimPod did not work for me. I followed the instructions and did everything I should have done and put on nearly a stone. It does work for some people, but it wasn’t me.

I am proud to be a podder

I was very skeptical. But the support is phenomenal. From Sandra and her team and the other podders.
It's not about weight loss alone it's about changing your relationship with food for the better. No one is promising a quick fix but they are saying it can be done. Take your time. Be curious be reflective and commit to the programmer and change will happen.

Informative and supportive approach to weight loss

I’m really valuing the SlimPod experience. The pods seem to be helping food noise and the coaching videos are really informative. There is lots of community interaction for those that value it. I’ve lost over a stone, much more slowly than ‘diets’ but it’s staying off and behaviour change feels like it could be sustainable.

Fantastic program

This is the best weight loss program I’ve ever been on. It feels effortless. I have lost almost all cravings for unhealthy food and only eat when genuinely hungry. Easy to navigate the app and lots of support

Works well

Slimpod definitely works in changing my thoughts and feelings around food, and in reducing my desire to snack or overeat. I've lost about 5lb in 6 weeks, which I'm very happy about. The program feels informative, supportive and effective.

A way of eating forget long term.

The programme is well organised and delivered with lots of support.
It has changed the way I am eating and my relationship with food. The background information to things like set point theory and the use of experts in the field are very good.
I hope never to yo yo diet ever again!

I have never felt so empowered

I have never felt so empowered with regard to weight loss.
The SlimPod program is for all and anyone who wants to achieve their weight loss goals and maintain their goals lifelong.
I am in week seven, have dropped a dress size, the food noise has left me, I can’t fall off the “wagon” as there is no “wagon” to fall off!
I am in control, not just of my weight, but in many aspects of my life.
I’m 65 years old and I now know that it is never too late to try and sort my eating habits out.
With the help of SlimPod, that is exactly what’s happening.
Thank you SlimPod.

Great experience

So for the sceptical like me - it works!
You do have to invest your brain and mindset but I have lost 2 stone over a period of 6 months and just generally feel better about myself and am really careful with the food choices I make whilst also within reason having what I want and not cutting anything out. It’s been brilliant!

I can't believe how well this is…

I can't believe how well this is working for me. From virtually day one, my mindset around food changed. I ate big meals and loved chocolate, sweets and crisps and ate them every day. I no longer feel the need to have these and my mind is blown by this. This isn't a diet and there are no restrictions, but it's a change of your mindset around food and IT WORKS. Can't recommend this programme enough for anyone who struggles around food.
