Depends on your personality. I tried to do just online and wasn't very successful. I need the accountability of having to step on the scale in front of someone to keep me on track.

Same.

My company had a discounted monthly membership rate and reimburses 1/2 the monthly cost as well so for me - going to the meetings was a little cheaper than doing it online so that was an added perk.

I also find it handy to go to the meetings to get other ideas of snacks/meals/etc.

It's really an individual choice. What works for others, may not work for you and vice versa. I have been tracking online since 1/1 and have lost 12.2lbs. My friend started the same day, but doing the meetings, and has lost over 15lbs. For her, she needs that accountability and feels she won't flub up during the week if she has to weigh in in front of someone every week.

I do online only. When I was going to meetings it seemed like the same people were taking over the meetings and talking about their struggles without giving others a chance. I met a bunch of girls online from all aver the US and we have our own "meetings" on a facebook page.

I, personally, found that I do better when I go to meetings. I think I need to be shamed into stepping on a scale in front of a stranger to really keep myself honest tracking points all week.

The success of the meetings also depends on the leader. I was doing great going to meetings because I really liked the leader, she really helped me.
I have been to other meetings where the leader stunk and I just trailed off.
