View Full Version : Weight Watchers!!
been trying to lose weight for ages now and just couldnt get motivated. today i woke up early and decided to be brave and join my local wieght watchers class.
got on the scales OMG not revealing what they said!!
anybody else dieting or at weight watchers at the mo???
maybe we could swap stories success etc??
I'm trying to loose weight at the moment!! not doing very well though!
Hey, ive been with weight watchers for about 6 weeks, i'm still not motivated though!! I have lost some weight but i need to lose a lot more!
first proper day of diet today!! not too bad but i am blooming hungry!!! i have lots to lose but i am determined to do it this time!!!
I just ate all the choclate in the house!!!! even the out of date stuff!!!! Oh well at least its gone now!
Found some good choclate bars by cadburys they are only 100 calories and less then 3g of fat I think they are called highlights and they come in orange and strawberry flavour.
My mum went to weigh watchers.. I looked at her point system and went on a diet.. I lost 2 and half stone in a year.. it think it is great but you have to have a lot of will power too

i joined Weight Watchers 7 weeks ago ive lost 12 1/2 pounds so far - didnt go last night tho because it was my birthday at the weekend and i was very naughty, its easy tho when you get the hang of it you will find that you dont cut out on favourite foods altogether you just dont eat as much with the points value i eat loads of salad and pasta and drink plenty of water every day and go to the gym as much as possible and you do notice the difference in time
i found counting the points best for me!! i finding it hard but am determined to stick to it. it is only my second day!!! it horrid when dave is eating something really nice but it is too many points for me!! or if my little boy is eating sweets, i always want one!!
happy birthday for the weekend by the way!!

I did try it once but couldn't really get into the points system am now trying Slimming world and finding it so much more easier.

i used to go to slimming world lost 3 stone but then i sort of lost control and put it back on now im struggling like hell to lose it again
i borrowed some stuff off a frien d who did slimming world!! i couldnt stick kto itand didnt lose any weight!!! i found weight watchers the best one so far
Don't know who true this is but I heard that there is worms in Slimfast to help the process... could be just a rumour or myth

ergg... horrible imagine that - worms in your belly :eek:
Like I said, don't know how true it is.. it was just one of those rumour possibly...
Has anyone else hear this????

i think i remember someone saying that - its disgusting thinking about it - i think someone said that if you leave a can of it open in or out (cant remeber which) of the fridge appartently you can see it the worms like - dont no if i could even try that to see it would make me sick
yuk yuk yuk!!!
i tried slim fast a few years back just after having connor!! couldnt stand the stuff!! it ewould make me gag and id feel sick for hours after!! will never try the stuff again!! especially now!!

My aunty did Weightwathers. We were all like :=====| with our motuhs wide open. From ------ she went to -- I was amazed. She didn't want to put herself on the magazine though!! She went really thin and we were all proud of her. Now my mum is on a diet but not with Weight Watchers. She does her own she just eats as half as much she usually eats but when she eats hungry she eats the other half but only when she really is hungry. So the tummy dont strech but goes in while your not hungry or hungry. She bought a tredmill and a rowing machine. She lost about half a stone. You can see a bit of a difference. She can 100% tell the difference. I am really proud of her!!
i bought a stider to help with my weight loss but to be honest i hardly ever use it!! i just walk everwhere!!
it weigh in day tomorrow!!! im dreading it coz my firstweek has not gone very well!!
my parent got every execise equipment when they came out, sliders, rowing machines, gutbuster, thigh master... they all now sit in a garden shed gathering dust.. they both went to weigh****chers and lost more weight then they ever did
ok been to first weigh in at weight watchers!!!! i had a bad week in the end and didnt stick to diet!!! buit managed to lose only half a pound!!! gonna try and stick to it this week and lose loads next week!!!!
Half a pound is still half a pound
Good luck!!!
yeah it better than nothing i suppose!! dosent help when the women in front of me who also joined last week lost 5 and a half!!!!!!!
Blimey!! I bet she starve herself!
She should be thrown out then!!
just makes me wonder why they join!! id kill to be as fat as her!!!!!

Fair play to you debs :bow: a half a pound is a half a pound, that happened me in the first week to i only lost half a pound and i was going crazy but then the next week i lost 5 pounds so hang in there love - it will get easier :clap:
At least its coming off and not going on. Thats what i tell myself every time i only lose 1/2 a pound, which feels like every week!! :)
I joined ww a while ago before i went on holidays ... When you get into it you kinda get a buzz of losing the weight .. I got into a routine and was losing 2 & a 1/2 pound a week .. But i haven't been since i got back from holidays and i am starting to notice it all gone back on ...
Going to go back on thursday i think it's brilliant and would recommened to all

it is really good!! i went last year and lost a stone in a month!! then i gave up and it all went back on!!! i didnt really stick to it but i am determined this week!!
if you go back maybe we could swap our successes!!!

they are lovely!! i really like the weight watchers rice puddings!! or the chocolate/ tofee frozen puddings!! mmmmm i got one in the freezer think i may just go and get it oout!!
Can you explain the principle to me as I'm trying to loose about 1stone or 0.5 stone, not sure what yet so its not realy worth me joining up.
Cheers
baically there are two diets to choose from a no count diet ( havent looked at this as dont follow it!!) or the ponts diet!! you get a certain number of points per day to use on all you food!! you can earn more points by doing more exercise( good for if you go out for meal later inthe week coz you can save tehm up!!) the number of points you get depends on your weight, height etc!! i find the counting points a lot easier than counting calories per day thats why i joined up!!
Yeah Debs i wouldn't mind that ...
i agree on the full count plan ...
The choices on the no count aren't the best ...
I may join on-line as there isnt a meeting near me :mad:
i nearly joined on line!! it is a bit cheaper!! but i know i wouldnt stick to it!! there woild be none to weigh me in every week so it is easier for me to cheat!! i feel like i have to stick to it when a complete stranger is weigghing me!!!
I know a few friends who bunced in and bought an electronic scales and every week they meet up and all get weighed and throw a fiver into the kitty ...
They set themselves goals and whenever they reach their goal they get all their money back out of the kitty .. Quite a good idea
that is a really good idea!! i dont know enough people who want to lose weight!!

I constantly try to lose weight but will power seems to go out of the window when I hear the words alcohol and take away. Found slimming world very good before though.
P.S. perhaps when we feel ourselves reaching for the buiscuit tin or really hungry but used up all our calories/points we could come on here to keep our mind off it and encourage each other
yeah take aways are my downfall!! i am ok with kebabs coz what i have are low in points but an indian or kfc and i have to break the diet for a day!!
chocolate is also a downfall
