Question on Weight Watchers

[WDWLVR]

Be easy on me I'm really new to this. Finally decided it is time to do something about my weight. I've had a couple of people at work do Weight Watchers with great success. I think it might be the plan for me as it seems to allow you to each the foods you want just in moderation.

I'm not one for doing meetings and the people who do it at work don't live anywhere near me so I can't go with them. Plus if I do join I have the WISH to help out - right?

So has anyone done the online weight watchers? That's what I'm thinking about.

Also if anyone can give me the 411 on WISH. Do I log in someplace to start, etc.

DH and I are doing the Dec. 2004 Christmas cruise and I'd love to be a number of sizes smaller by then.

Thanks everyone!

Hi there,
Click the WISH link at the bottom of my message.

You will love WW's! I love that I get to eat all foods in moderation. I have really learned to eat so healthy!

Lots of people do WW"s on line, or on thier own! You can definately do it. I do meetings because I need the accountability that the meetings give me, and the interaction with other "loosers" is nice. Our group has started a once a month dinner and we do that next Sunday night. Everyone brings a WW point friendly dish.

Check out www.dwlz.com for points at restaurants, and lots of other info.

Every Monday night after my meeting I post a weekly Meeting Topic thread. Check it out later tonight after I get back from my meeting.

Good luck! and welcome to WISH!

Melanie

Welcome to WISH, Mary!! I'm glad that you are going to join us!! We can always use another "loser" around here!!

To be "official", look for the thread that says "Take the DIS WISH Challenge" at the top of the page and post there. NativeTxn will put you on the member list!! And don't forget to stop by and pick up your WISH member clippie on the Instructions On How To Add the WISH Clipart thread (also at the top of the page) Those clippies are soooo motivating!! I'm sure you'll soon be trading up to the 5 pound clippie!!

I am also doing WW and for the same reasons you gave! I love that I can still eat most of the things I like in moderation. It's really a plan that I can see myself doing for life! I do attend the meetings, but there are several here who do WW online and from what I've heard, there are a lot of good tools in the online program. I think you will be fine!! WISH is a great support team!!

I'm looking forward to seeing you on WISH!!
