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The points-based method of Weight Watchers is outdated and doesn’t go far enough to promote healthy lifestyle changes.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

I agree, the WW program works, if you follow the plan. If you get all your requirements in (5 fruits and vegetables, water, oil etc.) you aren't always using your points on bad carbs. My thing is breads and chips, salty things. I decided to try the Core plan and I love it. I wasn't sure if I could do it because you have to count breads, chips, etc, but I haven't had a problem with it. It allows me 35 points a week for the breads and 100 calorie packs, and other things not on the core plan, so I don't go overboard on these foods. I find myself eating a lot more fruit for snacking on rather than chips and I haven't been hungry. Plus you can have the 94% fat free popcorn on the core plan if you need that salt fix.

I agree with view # 25; Weight Watchers is not a diet but a nutrional life style change! I loved Weight Watchers it helped me lose 12 pounds. I eventually could not afford it and had to drop membership. I do not see the value of on-line membership; where does the support come from doing it on-line.

To Diana Crabtree-In regards to the lifetime member goal weight that you have to have: i've been told by our WW leader that if you provide a doctor's note indicating what he/she feels is a healthy weight for you they will honor it. They will always honor your doctor's opinion, so try that-get your doctor to give you a note as to what he/she feels is a good weight for you. In fact, I was a lifetime member, had a baby, and then they give you 6 weeks to get back to your goal weight (wihtout paying again) starting immediately after having your baby-this was impossible for me, so I had a doctor's note indicating that I need so many months to get it off, and I was able to get back to my goal weight in the time my doctor felt appropriate and not pay.
