Anyone doing Weight Watchers?
How's everyone doing? I'm down a bit more, 22.2. I have a lot to lose, so while that seems like a lot its really not.

Re: Anyone doing Weight Watchers?
i joined WW mid april. this will be my 3rd time on it. the first two times was to loose weight after having kids this time its because i ate to much and am grossly overweight  
the first two times i lost over 40-50 lbs each time. hoping to do it again and not gain it all back.
i have to say i really dont like the new plan. i hate that food l really liked are now more points on this plan rather then the old plan. i am doing online only since i dont need the meetings just the tools.
today was weigh in and i have lost a total of 22lbs; this includes a gain from being on vacations for two weeks at then end of may!
still have tons more to go. i would love to loose at least another 20lbs by October for the wedding i am in.
hoping i can keep most of it off this time. i hate to diet and i love food  but i am going to make an effort to watch what i am eating after i am off it!

WW has been very successful for me in the past. After the birth of my first child, I lost 52 points in 8 months!
Kept it off for three years... got pregnant with my second who is now 9 months old and need to lose 30 pounds. I HATE the new program... I am starving..
I cant even eat cereal for breakfast without wasting like 6-8 points.. It's ridiculous.. I'm going to try and stick with it but it's so discouraging. I get that they want you to eat better... but I feel like there is no room for anything that isnt lean protein or vegetables..

yes my cereal went from 4 to 6 points and i think its because of the FF milk. also the same with oatmeal i use to eat apply cinnamon and its now more points without even using milk!! these 2 are more go to quick breakfast at work. so i have been sucking it up and sticking with the cereal.
i hate that even their ice cream is more points. i love my ice cream. that candy i use to love eating is double the points and now to me not worth it. even the FF creamy dressing i loved has been doubled!
i got use to it but still ***** about it  i do like chicken is less points now because i live on chicken!

Starting WW today! I used the program about 7 years ago to get rid of the baby weight and was successful. I like the structure of the program.

The new plan increased some points, but made fruits and vegetables zero in an effort to motivate people to eat healthier. So instead of a cookie for 4 pts, or a cup of grapes for the same, you will choose the grapes over the cookie. I often eat a banana and a light & fit greek yogurt for breakfast, so 2 pts total. Or I will have light toast with some PB2 on it for 3 pts. I also make egg whites in the microwave at work.
I have lost 26 lbs since April. This past week (4th of July week) was my first gain since being back on. I was a little devastated but it got me back to being more strict. Hoping to take it off this week.

Before they made this change fruit was still free! That's why I like the program before they did this one fruit and vegetables were free but the other things I enjoyed were less points and the planes worked for me then too.

Exactly... I get they want you to eat better... but i dont like being forced to not be able to eat a sweet once in a while.. ice cream etc is like ridiculous points!!!

Do you use your activity or weekly points?

I don't. I have a really bad metabolism and a thyroid problem and (since I've done weight watchers before) I know that I won't lose if I do. But everyone is different. I know people who use them every week and still lose.

Re: Anyone doing Weight Watchers?
I joined the online program again. Tracked for 2 weeks and then when my routine got off track and I ate anything and everything I knew I was so over my points that I didn't bother tracking.
I really need to maintain and/or lose a few pounds. I know it's not a lot but my clothes are getting right and I'm 40 now and a little less active, and less than 5 feet tall so those pounds can creep up easily
I hate that I only have 30 points per day. I don't use the fitness points. Also I can't eat eggs so as PP mentioned I hate that my cereal is so high in points.
My ideal would be to workout more and just eat clean 90% of the time but I love food that isn't clean too much! Plus it's been difficult for me to get my home workouts in lately.

Anyone doing Weight Watchers?
it's been 3 weeks and i've only lost 1 lb. This weekend was a bad weekend. I did great all week but Friday, Saturday, and Sunday was tough. Lots of parties and didnt track. Weighed my self and gained 4 lbs. Praying this is just water retention because I wasn't drinking my water and had some chinese which has a lot of salt. Not very motivating

Hang in there  . Sometimes I notice I have a gain on Monday but then by Thursday it becomes a loss - I tend to eat like poop on Sunday so I'm note sure if it's water retention or what. I was just replying mostly to encourage you to still track! Even if it's 60 points! LOL. I always end up eating less of crap if I know I'm going to track it.

Thank you! You're so right about tracking. If you see it you do think 2x next time you reach for crap!
