Jaime Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 We're thinking about joining. Anybody got some experience with this? We're specifically looking at the Weightwatchers online program. Successes? Failures? Frustrations? Feel free to share!* [size=1]*NOTE: This will be ignored by many who will give an opinion while never actually experiencing the work of the organization[/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 I've not tried Weightwatchers online but I've done free online apps without much success. I didn't really stick it out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anomaly Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 If you are going to join and pay for the program and do it with your stalkee, it will work. I've done it and lost weight and kept it off for years (mostly). My sister list weight and kept it off for ten years now. If you commit to the program and view it as not a diet but learning healthy eating habits, especially with whom you will share your meals with, I would bet money it will do what you want. I did it by going to the meetings. It helps to share and discuss with others, but I didn't get much from meetings as they ere mostly women. I got a lot if support from my sister. It should be fun to do with your prey, I mean your future wife. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lilllabettt Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 Ha! This is neat to see, because I was literally just going to their website to buy the online thing. I love weight watchers point system. I followed the program but not "officially" --- a friend taught me how to calculate the points and how many I could spend and still lose weight. I never felt deprived or hungry - actually I felt like I ate more. I also liked that nothing was off limits. Lost 7 lbs in a month. Got tired of calculating points and put it back on. I'm thinking the online program could have helped me there --- my understanding is you can just enter food and it will calculate it for you. So I'll be watching this thread with interest! Maybe we could do it together jamie hmmmmm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dUSt Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 I've been using the "Lose It!" app on my phone and have lost 8 lbs so far over the last few weeks. It's amesome, and free. It keeps track of my saturated fat and cholesterol intake as well which is razzle dazzle.

Have yet to download it to my phone, but it seems a lot easier to use than some of the other food / exercise trackers. Thanks for sharing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ed Normile Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 You would probably get more responses if you Pm'ed the really fat people like Mlkolbe. Just do not mention his thunder thighs or buffalo bottom, he's a very sensitive guy. ed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
