WW (Weight Watchers)

Weight Watchers works as long as you put work into it. I used the iPhone app and it makes it easy for you to track how you spent your daily points. Portion control is a must though and you will be hungry at the beginning of your program.

This is my second go around with Weight Watchers. The last time I tried it I did it by myself 4 years ago and was successful in the beginning  but slowly returned to bad habits. This time around I joined with a friend and this has made all the difference as we can motivate each other to not stray from the Weight Watchers system. We are 6 months in and going strong, and most importantly loosing weight!

I really like the new weight watchers smart points program, but I have had a few technical problems with the app.  If you need help, you wait forever until you get the help you need.  

I have been on WW for 5-6 months and have lost almost 15 lb. The new smart points system is designed to decrease the amount of sugar, saturated fats, etc. that everyone consumes. I was really hungry for the first 3 weeks on the program and had thought my total daily points was to low. Once I got over the hump of being hungry everything has improved. Now I just have to get my wife on the Weight Watchers program.

The new points system is a  good program and I like that Oprah Winfrey is part of WW now. I always watched her show and I learned to trust her recommendations. The last time I had used Weight Watchers was about 4 years ago. A lot has changed with the new phone apps and I like the new smart points systems. My friend is using Weight Watchers too, and she loves how she's still able to eat whatever she wants, but on moderate base.

I have read other reviews which has complained about the automatic withdrawals. This I can understand being concerned about as I got fleeced by a online dating site a few months ago. I didn't have an issue last time with Weight Watchers and when I closed my account I was never charged anything additional. So far I have no issue this time around either.  A different friend at work recently finished up with WW and she never had a probably either so I am not to sure what some people are complaining about.

I am the yo-yo diet man, or at least that is what my wife tells me. ;-)

I have tried most of the diet programs out there and weight watchers a few times as well. I always keep coming back to weight watchers as it was by far the easiest way for me to loose weight, and trust me it still is not easy.

For some reason I am a sucker for new gimmicky weight loss solutions that never in the end work out. I am going to stay with weight watchers this time for the long haul as it is the only one where I have repeatedly lost weight at.  I takes time, patience and a lot of motivation but from my experience weight watchers online combined with their support group (which I really need) makes it the best option out there.

I love tracking my progress online and the in person meetings are very helpful and motivating. The whole Weight Watchers progress works for me, the points system and the support groups. I would recommend.
