I Wish I Knew How to LOSE You--The Weight Loss Thread (check first post)

Sason:
Hey, look what the wind blew in!

A voucher check from Weight Watchers in my letterbox!

With an option for online participation, which is what I planned to do.

So there ain't much avoiding it now, is there?  ::)

I'll look into it, how it works and such.

My scale at home isn't really reliable, so I won't start until Friday when I go back to work. There we have a professional scale.

Lynne:
Sonja - I loved the WW online tools. And invested quite a lot of time in it - entering recipes and fave foods. There are even message boards where once in awhile you meet like-minded people.

That said, though, the best thing I discovered was breakfast and lunch were fine but it all went out the window with supper due to dining out and glasses of wine.

I was talking to a friend who told me (sensibly, I think) to eat that 7 servings of fruits and vegetables every day. On days I do that, I don't have much room left over for a larger meal at night. And of course complex carbs instead of white bread and white rice; go for more colors and less processing. I'm going to try it.

But WW works for many - Meryl's had good luck with it.

Let us know what you decide!!

Sason:
Thanks Lynne.

I don't have much of a choice, really. I HAVE to loose weight now, before it gets out of my control totally.

I've been very successful with WW before, lost 37 kg (about the double in pounds) with them.

But this time I don't want to go to the meetings, it's too time consuming.
So I thought the online alternative would suit me perfect.

I'll let you know, for sure!

Even professional scales can be off.  The scale that we have at work for the weigh-ins, we tested.  I took a 5 pound weight to work, and placed it on the scale, and it came up at 5 pounds exactly, so we know it's accurate.
