Bottom Line The points-based method of Weight Watchers is outdated and doesn’t go far enough to promote healthy lifestyle changes.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. Weight Watchers Reviews Weight Watchers Review by Susan on May 21st, 2010 at 9:01 PM CDT Name I joined weight watchers in January and stayed on the program for almost 3 months and gained 5 pounds. I currently weigh about 160 pounds and my height is 5 9" so i am in the range. The classes in Boynton Beach were designed for retired people where the class instructor coordinated walking trips for the majority of the members. I switched to the Boca Raton facility and found the speaker to be very motivated; she was skinny skinny(an X- flight attendent). I believe she took diet pills to stay as thin as she did and did not actually follow the weight watchers plan. Weight watchers pushed all of their health bars( only 1 point per bar) which got me into the habit of eating bars on a daily basis. My previous diet prior to weight watchers was much more fulfilling bc. I ate a higher amount of chicken and fish but did not worry about points. With weight watchers, I snacked more bc. I tried to stay within my point limit and did not watch the quality of food I was eating as compared to my former diet that included a high protein, low carb diet. I always felt hungry with weight watchers too in comparison to not counting points and eating a low fat, low carb diet with less sugar. I feel weight watchers is all about the new products they are launching and the point value instead of the quality of what you are consuming. Perhaps weightwatcher should be categorized as a food manufacture such as quaker oats instead of a diet company. I am sure those food sales are definitely proving worthwhile for their investors and they laught all the weigh(no pun intended) to the bank. I expect more from the diet company than a bunch of marketing and sample dropping of health bars when I drive to a weekly meeting and hear all about the food launches. Enough of being a lifetime member and attending weekly meeting where you learn about what new and exciting bars weight watchers is pushing.
