I'm a lifetime member, but I am the world's worst dieter. I think part of it is that I'm too lazy to measure and weigh stuff. currently i am over goal. it really is a good program, I have a couple of friends that have lost over 100lbs. currently I'm on an anti-inflamatory NSAIDS and it's harder to lose while taking meds. I've been on them for 3 years about the same amount of time I've been at WW. I'm pretty much a sugarholic which doesn't help. I haven't given up though b/c I know I'll just go downhill.
