Slimming World Awarded Best Diet Aid

Slimming World has been awarded Best Diet Aid by consumers at ReviewCentre.com, the leading consumer review Website.

Slimming World proved such a success with online visitors to Review Centre during the last year that it easily won the Best Diet Aid Award for 2006, beating competition from 34 other well-known diets and diet aids.

The award is based on averages of ratings and user comments submitted by customers to Review Centre's Diets & Diet Aids category in 2006, and also for overall ratings and comments featured at the Review Centre site.

Slimming World participants consistently praised the organisation and an amazing 93 per cent of those writing reviews at Review Centre were happy to recommend it to others. It also scored a high 9.5 out of 10 rating for value for money - fees being very modest indeed.  

According to members, Slimming World is "Fundamentally…a healthy eating plan". Members are encouraged to adopt a healthy lifestyle but with the main focus on healthy foods such as fruit and vegetables. According to reviewers at Review Centre the programme is very effective with no health risks and no hunger pangs.

As well as the sensible approach to dieting contained in the plan, the consistent quality of the support within Slimming World meetings was another reason for the thumbs up it gained from members.

"No food was out of bounds" said one reviewer while another said: "The diet is not just another diet, it is a lifestyle change which is the most important thing."

The high levels of commitment and motivation of organisers, who have all been through the programme themselves, is another important factor according to Review Centre's contributors.

"Slimming World appears to work through a sensible approach to eating and lifestyle, shunning quick fix slimming solutions. That is the main message from its members who have written detailed reviews at Review Centre. Congratulations to Slimming World who have won this award due to the overwhelmingly positive feedback from its members," said Gaynor Holt, Chief Operations Officer at ReviewCentre.com.
