Bottom Line
The points-based method of Weight Watchers is outdated and doesn’t go far enough to promote healthy lifestyle changes. For better success, stick with diets like Nutrisystem or South Beach Diet.

I've been on WW for over a year and reached my goal weight about 3 months ago. A misconception of WW is focusing on Points or meetings. If you really pay attention to what the program offers it teaches about moderation, portion control, execersise, support and most importantly CHOICES. If you don't get that from this program then you won't get it from any other program you try.

Dear "Complete Pig"

I enjoyed your post. Though you have had no luck with WW, I thought I'd offer a few tips.

1.) Dieting is not "easy". It takes commitment and consistency. To be a success, you have to understand this "new" way of eating and living is permanent.

2.) "The minuscule amounts of...food" are actually appropriate portions of food for an adult. You have been vastly over eating for some time, so your perception of what is "enough" food is quite skewed.

3.) You're going to be hungry, get used to it.

4.) You can do it, if you want.


Good luck!

If you have to have the group dynamic than this program is for you. I felt like we were all a group of cattle following a diet plan and spouting the corporate line--'drink your water' each your points. bla bla bla. Once I got to lifetime (now maintenace) they quit caring for you. All the big money is in the 'losers'. Once you manage to lose your weight and manage to KEEP it off they forget about you.
