  • Weightwatchers

    All,

    I am putting renewed vigoure into losing weight with the OH in the new year. A few years ago I lost a lot of weight with Slimming World and like the structure it gave me, but feel the diet wouldn't fit into my lifestyle as well these days. A lot of people have recommended weight watchers and I wondered if anyone had anything to say about them good or bad.

    I lost 3.5 stone with them about 8 years ago, using the points system. It works really well if you stick to it, and even better if you can up your exercise too. I'll be doing it again in the new year, as a more local 'class' is due to start up then

      Hum - when they 'relaunched' themselves a few months back, they seem to have gone for the 'total-confusion-keep-em-coming-back' approach to me - and others I know have the same feelings.

      I have lost 21lbs since July on the basic oh so simple calories in v calories out = desired weight.

      I can wholeheartedly recommend WLR

        I lost 13 kgs in 13 weeks with WW and found it to be easy with the points system.
        Well done Sarswix and Pisk - I'm not disciplined enough to just count calories.

        Just to add, you eat really healthily with WW too.

          I lost a stone and a half with WW in just under 3 months. Was very happy with the system and I still consider how many points I am eating each day. I consider them, but sometimes ignore them! I understand the WW system has recently changed to something along the green and red days diet of Slimming World.

                  Luckily, I still have all my old point-counting materials, so I shall follow that, and still go for the weekly meeting. Means I stick to it if I'm being scrutinised every week I need to lose over a third of my body-weight to get within healthy range, so need threatening with a big stick really
