You may want to post this on the Slim Down Board sweetie..

To answer your question, I've heard that the South Beach Diet is fabulous..

Re: weight loss program

I have begun Weight Watchers and it is working great! It is really easy to follow and you can eat anything. I have lost 4.4 pounds in the last 2 weeks.

Re: weight loss program

I was against weight watchers until I watched my roommates lose so much weight. Ive been following it for 8 months, Ive never been to a meeting. I lost 17 pounds before I got engaged!

Re: weight loss program

I also recommend weight wtchers. I lost 25 lbs last year & am managing to keep the weight off. I'm not good at completely eliminating starches from my diet; I love bread, pasta, potatoes, etc, so the Atkins type programs aren't good for me. On Weight Watchers I can have anything I want. I just cant have every thing I want. Good luck. Try visiting weightwatchers.com

Re: weight loss program

I would also say Weight Watchers. FMIL started the program in June 2002 and to date has lost over 100 pounds! She sticks to the program and does it all on-line. She never attends the meetings. I am so proud of her!

edited to change the year to 2002.

Re: weight loss program

Weight watchers!!! I lost almost 20 lbs before college and have been pretty much able to keep off since then!

You just need the real motivation and encouragement to stick with it.

good luck!

Re: weight loss program

I am a Dietitian and I can tell you that Weight Watchers is the safest and healthest way to lose weight. It is a way of life. They teach you balance, variety, and moderation, which are the key to losing weight and most of all keeping it off. All of the other programs out there I really do not support. Congrats to all of you who have lost weight!!!

Re: weight loss program

If weight watchers meetings are too much $$ you can also do it online. I do it that way. For me it is much more affordable

You''re getting married 1 day before me! I am trying to lose 30lbs before the wedding. (As I sit here eating Halloween candy) I am doing Jenny Craig because I have zero free time and I love the fact that all my food is planned out for me. So far I''ve lost 6lbs. If I had more free time, I would definitely do Weight Watchers. My mom lost 40lbs on the program.
Good luck!

Re: weight loss program

Weight Watchers is a great program! Granted, every weight loss program isn''t for everyone, however, was really struggling with losing weight and Weight Watchers (actually joining and going to meetings) is the first thing that has worked for me in a long time. I have almost hit my 10 lb mark. The wieght loss is not fast, but it is steady and it stays off. I feel the reason WW works is because it makes you accountable and also doesn''t make you give up the foods you enjoy. The new Flexpoints program makes WW even easier. Good Luck with what ever you choose!
