WW and life time member question
I reached my Goal weight yesterday! I know have to maintain it for 6 weeks to become lifetime. My question is this am I allow to loose 10 more lbs and maintain lifetime still?? Someone told me you have to be with 2lbs higher or lower anything more you will loose it. So baiscally if I weigh less than 10lbs my goal wieght i wont maintain lifetime?
Is this true? If so i will be really upset!!
ETA: even if i loose 10 more lbs i would still be allowed to join WW. I know if you dont weigh enough you are not allow to join!!

Re: WW and life time member question
At the end of 6 weeks you have to be within 2 lbs of your goal.
After the 6 week maintenance period you have to weigh in once a month- you cannot be more than 2lbs over goal, however you can be under goal.
You cannot be underweight (so check your book for your height and make sure the 10lbs is within the healthy weight ranges).
Just make sure you within the healthy weight range.
If you end up losing much more than 10lbs, they may make you change your goal so its more realistic.

Re: WW and life time member question
Ok thanks my goal weight was only 2lbs less than the max range allowed. Losing 10 more will still leave me 7lbs before I hit the lowest I'm allowed to go.
I dont even know if I will really lose the whole 10lbs anyway plus after the 6 weeks maintenance I may start TTC so there is even a less chance of it
I just wanted the reassurance that I can lose the 10 without them telling me I have to pay again after the 6 weeks Thanks again!
ETA: ok actually if i loose an addtional 10lbs it still leaves me 16lbs beforei get to my minium BMI thats crazy i can never imagine weighing that little my DH would def. not like it

Re: WW and life time member question
congrats for hitting goal unless things changed from when i hit goal...at the end of six weeks, you can't be below 2 lbs or above 2 lbs of the goal weight. i would just verify that.

You can absolutely be more than 2lbs less than your ww goal weight. At one point, I was 10lbs under, but still well within the healthy weight range for my height. You just can't be more than 2 lbs OVER it. Then they charge you for meetings again.

You can be below but still need to be in the healthy range.
My goal was 128 and during my 6 weeks I was as low as 113. And it was never an issue
