Re: Anyone do WW online?
I do! I PREFER it to the meetings...
When I would go to the meetings I would be VERY discouraged! I joined around the same time as this other woman. She lost twice as many lbs as I did, but I lost MUCH more inches. Very noticeable difference, but when you're weighing in and they're going around the room getting everyone's losses I got discouraged VERY fast...regardless of what they said or who commented on my noticeable loss.
Online I get 24/7 support. The message boards make up for the meeting support. The tips I learned from the boards vs the tips at the meetings do not even come close.
Online also gives you things like the recipe builder, which I find extremely helpful.
I know many will say when you weigh-in in person it makes a difference, but it didn't to me. I didn't need someone else to make me stay on track or fear that if I don't weigh-in in front of a WW member I will be more likely to slack off...not the case for me. You just have to get to the point where it really doesn't matter what anyone else thinks...it's all about how you feel and if you're willing to stick with it or not.
HUGE fan of online!

Same here, I actually just signed up last week. I"m following the Core program and find that Online is much more helpful.
