NWR: Weight Watchers and e-tools

do they take that away once you become Lifetime? i know my meetings are free now but i certainly couldn't sign into my etools yesterday.

do they make you pay for that now considering the meetings are free now? So NOT fair if that's the case

Hate to be the bearer of bad news......but yes.

E-tools is only free if you have the monthly pass. But once you hit lifetime, you cancel your monthly pass, and therefore lose your e-tools. But you can sign up for it on the side if you want....I think it's $29.95 for 3 months.

CONGRATS on making lifetime!!!!!!!!!

you have to pay for e-tools now which is $12.95 a month and you have to tell them that when you call up to tell them that you are now a lifetime member for them to stop charging you that you want to continue with e-tools in order to kee it

IMO, WW doesn't do enough for Lifetime members. It's almost like 'hey, great, you got there...peace out' I wish they had meetings geared towards Lifetimers. Ever since I reached Lifetime, people make their smart@ss remarks when I attend meetings, so I don't bother anymore. Garbage in, garbage out...can't surround myself by negativity!

If people make smart@ss remarks, your Leader should be reminding them why you're there......how much you've lost....etc. Lifetimers are the foundation to WW.....without them, there wouldn't be anyone to motivate newer members.

But I do agree about meetings geared towards LT's. We've actually been discussing it at staff meetings

He did. He said stuff SO MANY times to these women, but it didn't stop. It really wasn't his fault. I ran into one of them in the supermarket a few weeks ago and she gave me a wicked look. I don't get it, because I never gloated or anything, and didn't really have THAT MUCH to contribute since I followed Core - I'm sure as a leader, you found that Core wasn't a terribly popular program with the members. So it wasn't like I was talking a lot to even irritate these ladies.
I ended up leaving my regular meeting and found a Pilates class at that time each week - I get a lot more out of that, LOL!
I'm THRILLED to hear that LT meetings are a possibility though; I'd work that into my schedule no matter what!

I think WW online is running a special now where you get the first 7 days free. So, you could always try it for a week and figure out if you'd use the tools.
