Slimming World Online vs. Offline

Just been looking at the Slimming World packages (online) and the cheapest one is £59.95 for 3 months (usually £99 apparently). How much is it weekly if I wanted to go to the group? and does the offline version include online access?

Was looking at the online package because of the recipes (want to eat proper food instead of this rabbit feed ). What do they do at the group? I'm guessing the group is similar to Social Slimmers and aimed more at the motivation and social support?

Tbh I still haven't started. Finding it hard to find something to fit in with my lifestyle. Besides I really like food Love steak but not sure I can live on it. I was looking at the Atkins diet but found it hard to find what you can and cannot eat (a lot of confusing websites out there). Keeping my options open

It's a fiver if you get an offer... I got a local offer but not sure what the price is without.

I enjoyed the group but was happy to go it alone after a few meetings. You don't need a group I will just nag you death

Sw is £4.95 a week. Usually theres a joining fee, but theres loads of offers around that do it for free or £5.

So at £4.95 a week over 12 weeks roughly £60 anyway? So not sure why it would be £99 originally.

Yeah I think it works out the same, BUT I honestly wouldn't pay that for the site alone. You get the online access when you go to group, but there you also get the regular weigh in, access to the recipe books and the HiFi bars (if you want them) the group support and a rep to contact if you need any help.
I guess it depends on you but I can't do it without the group/leader kicking me up the bum weekly! The site isn't very good though, I will say that. You'd be just as good buying the start up books from eBay and getting a load of free recipes from the internet.
