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The points-based method of Weight Watchers is outdated and doesn’t go far enough to promote healthy lifestyle changes.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 Medifast Diet.

I joined WW because my family was pressuring me to loose weight. I only had 35 pounds to loose. So far I lost a total of 8.2 pounds. The weight is coming off slow. I do however don't count my points. I have been watching what I eat and drink plenty of water. I can't seem to gave up my sweet tooth. I joined a gym which I exercise 3 to 4 times a week. I feel better about myself and hope one day i could start counting my points.

I have been on Weight Watchers for just over 2 years. It is NOT a diet, you are right about that. It is a way of life. I started on the Flex plan and it taught me portion sizes. I did not give up anything! I ate smaller portions of things. I have since switched to Core which is, in my opinion, is a healthier way to eat. I can still have the little things that I love like pizza, chocolate, even ice cream and cake. Weight Watchers has taught me HOW to eat and to lose the weight and keep it off.

I have lost 118 pounds ~ a whole person and I am within 8 pounds of my goal weight. I am healthier and happier. My mother is 72 years old and has lost 110 pounds. She is now off of her diabetic medication and they have reduced her high blood pressure medication in half!

I have been on Weight Watchers for almost a year and lost 50 pounds safely and slowly. It is more of a way of life than a diet. I eat mostly healthy foods like chicken, brown rice, broccoli, whole wheat bread and pasta, turkey. However, if I want change once in a while, two slices of pizza, instead of a turkey sandwich and salad for lunch is not bad for you. Weight Watchers works if you stick to the plan. But I do agree it's not for everyone. But Weight Watchers did show me how much I use to eat and what I was eating. Now I eat better, and have cut back on my portions, except if it's broccoli, I eat more of that now. I have a healthy lifestyle now. I even quit smoking. But everybody is has there own opinion. Not saying that I'm right, this is just my opinion.
