How Long Will It Take Me on Weight Watchers?

JustWondering asked:


I am starting at 140 and Im at 136 after a week and a half of weight watchers. I want to get down to 125. I am also 25 years old. How long do we think this will take?

sj asked:


I’ve recent started doing the weight watchers diet at home and counting points. I’m allowed 21 points a day, but usually only using around 16 (and not feeling hungrey). I’m doing a 1 hour of exercise every other day and walking my dog every day. Will the fact that I’m not using all my daily points have a negative effect, as the first week of the diet I lost 3 lbs and the second week I did not lose or gain any points?
Thanks for any advise.

Has anyone here tried the new Weight Watchers Momentum program? If so, does it really work? Is it easy to figure out what you can or cannot eat? Is it good for Diabetics?

Diets Do Work. Does Weight Watchers

DIETS DO WORK. DOES WEIGHT WATCHERS?

“Weight Watchers” current ad slogan is “DIETS DON’T WORK”. How far they have slid down to sheer marketing hype! That “DIETS DO WORK” is described in a scientific study in The Journal of The American Medical Association, 297:969, 2007. That is scientific proof done in a well designed study. It is not “proof by testimonial” which is the fraud that weight loss programs perpetrate on the public. Testimonial ads are fraud, not proof. They merely show that some people lose weight when they decide to lose weight, regardless of the method that they choose to use. Can you believe that in the many years of it’s existence that “WEIGHT WATCHERS” has never done a scientific study to prove that it’s programs work?

Well Weight Watcher started out with a diabetic diet that the founder picked up in the office of the Commissioner of Health of the City of New York. That lady was a marketing expert, a fantastic person who single handedly created Weight Watchers without knowing much of

any thing about weight loss at first. And she set the tradition for the program forever.

“Diets Don’t Work” reflects badly on Weight Watchers history which was totally based on the diet obtained from the diabetic diet obtained from the city of New York. But now “diets do not work”. In the early 60′s, Weight Watchers founder Jean Nidetch began inviting friends into her Queens home once a week, to discuss how best to lose weight. She obtained her first diet from the offices of The Commissioner of Health of New York City. From early 1960 to this year, Weight Watchers was based on that Diabetic Diet. Now they says that “DIETS DON’T WORK” . Are they admitting that Weight Watchers was a fraud from the early 1960′s to 2006? My that is a moment in marketing history. To tell the truth.

Hype, BS, and marketing drivel works! Marketing Wizards tell you that It is easy to lose weight! You do not need to restrict your eating behavior in any way. These foods are negative calorie and you can eat all you want. Just come to Weight Watchers meetings and learn how to make Sham Tort our way and you will become thin as a rail. Actually many people just go to a weight watcher meeting to weigh in and all they get out of the program is the weigh in. After that they leave and do not bother to hear the drivel spouted by the leaders. They talk about food all the time at the meetings. They think food. They twirl recipes in the air and that is supposed to help you lose weight. What a fantastic program. Written by marketing pros, publicity hounds, and never one iota of evidence that their program has any value whatsoever. … on the hoof. They never proved that their programs works to help people lose weight, and they pull a new program out of their pastafazoo every season. Now that is something. People who have not lost weight in The Weight Watchers experience ought to tell their story here, so we can get relieffrom their marketing garbage.

I know that there are some foods out there that count as 0 points, and I’m just looking for a list of snack foods/foods that count as minimal points in Weight Watchers…. Also, what are some of the retailers that I could find the products?? Thanks!

I would like to find the exchange units for the old weight watchers program. Points and the flexplan are not good for me, I keep falling off the proverbial wagon.

Since I’ve started Weight Watchers I’ve found that my hypoglycemia kicks in a lot more throughout the day. It also happens every time I work out at the gym. What can I do to stick to my points target and keep my sugar from falling all day?
