Couldn't agree more! You will definitely lose the weight if you stick with it but you lose it gradually which is honestly the key to keeping the weight off. I also find that you are never hungry on WW and you have the freedom to eat more of the things you like (it's not a very restrictive diet).

Also, try and fit in walking as much as you can. I walk to the train every morning and back home every night instead of taking the bus (1.5 miles each way). I go for walks on my lunch breaks. I walk to a further train stop than the one that is right downstairs from my job. Seriously, getting in that little extra exercise a day really makes a difference.

only smat carbohydadrates like whole wheat bread, NO rice, white bread, etc Btw, carrots are carbohydrates too.

No carbo after 7pm, this helps enormously to lose weight in the belly.

Cut out all sugary drinks. I dropped 10 lbs. like that when I cut out iced tea and soda. I also started recording my calorie intake on www.thedailyplate.com which really helped me to eat right. Other than that, I didn't really exercise, just walked more often. Good luck!

I think water is the easiest and best way the more the better! Also if you drink soda, even diet soda, stop, you'll see a difference in a week!

Thanks girls!! I am def on no carbs and I only drink water... I have never found it so hard to lose weight! I guess I am getting older and my hormones or something are all wacky! I won't even use any sweetners in my coffee! Maybe I should just join WW.. I know I have cheated here and there esp since it seems everyone wants to go celebrate the engagement.. hmmm I guess adding as many walks as possible during work ours too. I will try the lemon water and stay strict with the food and gym... hopefully I can lose a little for the epics!

There are 4 different options:

2- 17-week pass - $194. 17 weeks worth of meetings, no e-tools.

3- $13 weekly - pay $13 each week when you go to meetings, no e-tools

4- WW Online - $17.95 per month - online only, no meetings

FM me if you have anymore questions

I'm a WW girl myself but I agree you might not lose as fast as you want. It's really comes down to calories in/calories out - figure out how much energy your body needs to run, and then eat less than that, or go to the gym.

WW!!!!

I lost 3lbs in my first week

but that was coupled with hard core exercise

Bottom line, best way to lose weight is to count calories, every single calorie that goes in your mouth. and dont eyeball anything, measure all your portions...get a scale...take measuring cups with you to work

calories in, calories out...just google a calculator for how many calories to eat to lose 2lbs/week and do exactly that

it's never failed me...but I do like WW the best, bc you don't feel hungry or feel like you're on a diet...I lost 3lbs and I still got to eat oreos! lol
