Hello,

Has anyone on the Weight Watchers plan? If so, any success? I'm thinking about enrolling today.

WELCOME CYSTER!!!

I've never had much luck with weight watchers, but I know there are lots of cysters on here who have. I'm Insulin Resistant and I do that plan. I've had lots of sucess on it.

Good luck to you in whatever venture you take!!

Lots of love!

Hi! I joined Weight Watchers a week before Thanksgiving and I've lost 24 pounds so far. It's working for me. I think it works for me because 1) there's a certain amount of accountability when you have to go weigh in every week and 2) I've started to really pay attention to portion sizes and calories, fat and fiber content now that I'm countin points.

There was another girl at the meeting last week who told her story. She has PCOS, too, and has lost over 70 lbs on the plan in the past year (25 more to go). She inspires me to think it might work for me. The jury is still out as to whether it will work long term or not. I'm at 207 now, and can usually get down to 180-190 on almost any plan with no problem. If I keep losing after that point AND keep the weight off once I get to goal, then I'll call it a total success.

Good luck, whether you decide to join or not.

Debbie

GOOD LUCK!

That's a really good story. I just joined Weight Watchers last week. It was hard at first because I'm on Glucophage and it's hard to eat all my points. I really didn't have much of an appitite. I went off on my medication and NOW I'm craving sweets like mad. I'm getting back on my Glucophage tomorrow.

Thanks for the reply. I can't seem to find the link to Weight Watchers under the Diet/Excerise menu. Could you paste me the link. I had joined WW last week. Thanks.
