I’m 5′ 2″ and weigh about 124 pounds. I don’t think I look overweight, but I would like to get back down to around 110 pounds. I’ve been trying to eat well and exercise but it just doesn’t seem to be coming off the way I want it to. I was thinking of joining weight watchers for the summer, but I’m not sure if it’s a bad idea since I don’t want to lose THAT much weight. Has anyone ever joined the program to lose about 10-20 pounds? Is it worth it or can I find the points online without joining?
PS- I’ve done weight watchers in the past by just following my mom’s booklet and it worked very well, but we don’t have the book anymore.

Also, I would just use it as a way to jumpstart my weight loss. In general, I eat very healthy, so I doubt I will gain the weight back once I stop the program.

People join Weight Watchers not just to lose weight but to also learn how to keep a healthy lifestyle so they don’t have problems down the road. Many people join just to lose a few pounds. I highly suggest Weight Watchers. If you follow their plan it is a very healthy way to live.
You might want to join their forum. It’s free. Of course they can’t give you point info but it would give you added support you may need to get you going and to stay on track.
Weight watchers is an excellent program. I would recommend joining either online or at a meeting place near you so that you can get the current information you need. There are some sites online where you can find the information, but probably not enough for you to find enough to do the program right. It doesn’t matter how much you have to lose, it will help you get to your goal. Plus after you have maintained your weight for 6 weeks your meetings are free! (If you go the meetings route.) When I joined I had about 30 lbs to lose but there was a woman who usually sat around me and her goal was only to lose 10 lbs and that was all. She reached her goal. Good luck!
