WW online - ETA new question below....
Any one doing WW online only & not going to meetings? I work fulltime, going to school PT for my MBA & I have 3 month old son. My DH works 2 jobs. I would never be able to make to meetings every week.
Anyone have success without going to the meetings?

Re: WW online
I tried this w/o the meetings after I had my twins but the only thing that worked for me is going to the meetings.

Re: WW online
I had tried this too but for me it only worked temporarily. Weight watchers likes to say the magic is in the meeting and it's true. Weight watcher members that attend meetings lose THREE TIMES more weight and if you add e-tools to that figure (which comes free when you sign up for the monthly pass) they lose 50% more!!!
In all honesty, I would try and make it work. You are worth the 30 minutes a week.

See this is my problem, making myself a priority
Do you guys think it would ok for me to bring my son to the meetings with me? If I can, it would make it easier for me to make it to the meetings......

Re: WW online - ETA new question below....
I do it online only. I started it back in 2007 and then went off after my wedding. I went back on in January of this year. Since originally starting, I am down 36.8 lbs and since January I am down 16.8 lbs. I don't have the motivation to go to meetings and I'm used to doing things on my own so I think this works best for me. It does take more self control I think and having others in your life on WW also can be a significant help. The best thing you can do is find what works for you.

Absolutely! A lot of center have mom and me groups (just check online). Some people bring their children with them and as long as they are relatively quiet or you can step out if they are being noisy it's totally fine!

i agree totally...prepregnancy i did ww online and lost 22lbs.....and then i got pregnant and gained 50.... ....i lost 30some odd lbs within the first two wks pp but i still had about 20 to lose....i joined again this jan and i have lost 8lbs so far....im not as strict as i was before so my weight loss has been much slower than before but i havent gained anything....so im taking my slow losses and using them to motivate myself to keep going....I agree with the above poster....its about u and what works for u....im someone that never went to meetings and i lost what i wanted to lose ....u dont need to do meetings if u know yourself and know u can still have the self control and drive to do it yourself
