You really learn so much from the meetings. You should go to as many as you can. Just to learn new tips.

I just re joined WW on thursday and I really like to go to the meetings but I dont have time either, if you can go, go it gives you support and motivation and you learn.... what is really usful also is the online tools.

Re: Whose on Weight Watchers??
Personally i need those meetings.... i lost 70lbs from last oct to this past july, then stopped goin to meetings from july-this oct and gained 25lbs of it back, and i rejoined last week and i lost 5 lbs this week, those meetings are very good..but u have to find ur leader and the group your comfortable with, i love my leader and if she left i would go 50 miles to where ever she went!
its also a proven thing done by ww that ppl who go to meetings loose the weight 3 times faster and better!

I have been trying it thru the website. i did it in the group thing but I just didnt like it that much. So my sister and I share an account online to track points and to get the point values.

Re: Whose on Weight Watchers??
I've done WW in the past and lost over 20 pounds, thought I could do it on my own and gained most of it back. Now I'm back again and I go to the meetings... I think they're really important. For some reason, they keep you honest and more goal oriented. First you feel a little goofy but you get over it.

Re: Whose on Weight Watchers??
When I did WW the meetings are what kept me motivated. I went to different meetings with different leaders when I finally found the one i could relate to and who I was comfortable with (which was key for me). Its a way to motivate each other and learn new tips from people who are going through the same thing you are...loosing weight. I lost 20lbs over 2 years ago and i gained about 7 of it back which i am having trouble loosing. I became a lifetime member and got weighed in every month, but when I went back to school it was too hard to make it to meetings so im not a lifetime member anymore I highly recommend WW meetings!!

Re: Whose on Weight Watchers??
i just have to reiterate what the others already wrote... you should really try to set out the time once a week to go to the meetings and track EVERYTHING.. The meetings keep you motivated and honest whether you gain or lose or stay the same. i think it really makes a difference. When I use to sit in on meetings i got so motivated again to do my best for the week to come, it is worth the sacrafice.

Re: Whose on Weight Watchers??
I lost 45 lbs from weight watchers a year ago...gained alot of it back because I stopped going....Personally, the meetings are everything to me. I feel guilty if I hear other people have control or lost weight . It makes me want to prove to myself that I can do it too. If interested, there is a great leader in the Plainview and Carle Place locations named Debbie. E-mail me if interested. She is a riot!!! I get a kick out of just listening to her.

Re: Whose on Weight Watchers??
im not on weight watchers but i took a nutrition class last semester, and my professor said out of all the weight lost groups and weight lost products on the market, that weight watchers is the best...so maybe you should give the meetings a try, they probably teach you a lot at the meetings.

Re: Whose on Weight Watchers??
I have been doing WW for almost 9 yrs now. On and off. I lost 60-70 lbs on my own, nomeetings. Since I started they changed the system 4-5 times already. I noticed that everytime they change it it is hard to lose weight at first, I guess casue your body has to get used to it. But since the B-day weekend is coimg to an end I will be going on tomorrow.
