I plan to join in the next few days. How do I find you?

I am a lifetime member of weight watchers & faithfully go to my meetings every Monday. The meetings are where I get my motivation.

You will eventually learn the points plus and NOT have to look everything up.

I joined about 3 years ago & have kept off about 46 lbs......problem is I want to lose and keep off about 8 more lbs!

But, WW is the best eating plan.

Remember, you never graduate from WW, it is a lifetime commitment!

Some of my classmates and I go out to eat every week after our meeting!

should have asked me first, I would have told to skip the confusing costly WW site and go straight to a FREE, easy to use, amazing website..

http://www.sparkpeople.com

the food tracking can not be beat, the exercise videos and tracking are the best on the internet, the information and even the forums are all FREE..and open 24/7.....

Give them a try and see what you think!

I have thought about the online ww...what do you guys who do it think about it...? How much time do you have to spend online every day? every week? Is it easy to follow?

you need to be on it everyday, entering your food/points and activity.

check out the link above..sparkpeople..free

I tried sparkpeople a couple of years ago and really liked the food data entry program, but I found the rest of the website confusing -- especially because of the clutter from so many advertisements. If WW is worse than sparkpeople, I don't want to waste my money on it.

nope. I use a droid app fro my phone called myfitness something or other.
just punch in your meals and exercise and it does all the work for you.

Hi Kim! welcome to the WW family. I have been doing the new program online since Dec 30th and I've lost 24 lbs so far...I'm also doing the Leslie Sansone "walk at home" dvds. Its been great. You will build up stamina as you go, take it easy and work your way up... you can do it! I will be challenged on Wed when I leave to spend 2 weeks with my 3 sisters in FL, the wine and dessert loving sisters! However, I'm motivated to see "me" again in the mirror, I have 26 more to go and I'm going to do it! go for it, you'll find lots of support. Message me anytime :-)

I should do both. Keep up the good work.

I lost about 35 pounds last year on WW on line. Still a member, but have trouble sticking with it since I retired-hoping to get my momentum back! I'll be your friend!
