You can try "online only." I think it's less expensive than meetings, but you still get all the support of Connect. I'm a meetings gal, but see a lot of people on Connect who are online only. Good luck! Keep up the good work.

I am a big (in some ways) supporter of WW. I made lifetime in 2004, gained a bit back, so rejoined last year and lost 33 pounds for a total of 56 pounds. If anyone had ever told me I would weigh 128 at age 69, I would have said they were crazy, but here I am in my size 8 pants and size small tops and it is real!

I joined and lost what I needed to lose. I am a life timer. I keep going to meeting for accountability . I know if I quit I will gain it all back. It keeps me where I want to be.

My son and daughter in law joined last year with the online version. They love it.

My husband and I are doing what I call our own version of WW. We started 6 weeks ago and lost a total of 29 lbs combined (15 for him, 14 for me).
We cut out fast food and dining out, chips, desserts. I cook low fat meals. We watch how many carbs we eat a day as well as limit our calorie intake to around 1300. Still a lot of food considering most of it is fresh fruits and veggies. Portion control is key to a good weight loss plan. |
[QUOTE=moonrise;8019539] I'm a very private person in real life, so the thought of going to meetings is terrifying!
Exactly!! I could not imagine getting up in front of a group of people and being weighed!! Admire those who can, but I just couldn't! |

I am doing WW. I have just been doing it for about a week and a half. I have lost 3.5 lbs. so far. Keep going!!
