Weight Watchers Online?

[maryisme]

Hello,
I am a big WW fan but am thinking of joining WW online. Last year, I lost 42lbs on WW before I found out I was pregnant. Well, to make a long story short, I am back to the beginning of my weight loss journey.

Can anyone tell me their exerience w/ WW online? Do you get alot out of it? There are so many free support groups out there, I want to make sure its worth it.

Thanks so much!!

Mary

Hi Mary! I've been doing WW online since 1/12/04 and, I love it. I am also a former meeting-goer so, I know the differences. Mostly for me, a part-time working Mom of 2, it gives me the freedom to 'log-on' whenever I want and therefore, spend the normal meeting time, doing exercises, also at home. I just would not have time to do both meetings and exercises.

Monetarily, it's also great. Much less expensive than going to the meetings (I think about 1/2 per month, maybe even more) and, they have discussion boards and chats, just like the DIS. I've also found their support excellent and, quick to reply.

What I really like the best is, having that online point tracker which is printable so, everyday/night, I input my food and, print it all out for the next day and, what I actually did/didn't eat for the current day. (I'm confusing myself now)

Every week they send a newsletter, which is kinda like a meeting but, I can read it in my jammies.

Anything else, please ask! Lots of fellow WW's here. Best WISHes!! Onward and downward!!

Hi Kim,
Thanks for the reply and congratulations on the weight loss. Wow-- good job. I decided to go ahead and join and am glad I did. I start tomorrow and have already plugged in my breakfast and lunch. I think that is a really cool feature. I used to go to the meetings but since I had my second DD (8 months old) I'm finding it really difficult to run around as I used to. Not complaining though , just have to adjust.

Thanks again.

I loved it. You get to journal online with a database of foods all you gotta do is find the food on the list and it puts in the points and everything.


The boards are open to anyone for support though.

Hi Melissa,
I was online today and am finding it really fun to use. Hopefully, this will be another tool for me to utilize to help make this darn weight go away.

Congratulations on your DD's birth. I looked at your website and she is beautiful. I also had a baby last year. My DD was born in September.

Good luck!
