Roni-

This is the first time I felt the need to comment. I love your blog and all the work you. I am totally a WW flex girl. It fits me and my lifestyle. As soon as I went to my first meeting I was hooked. I have never looked at this as a diet. I am committed to this being a lifestyle. I am working at teaching my children healthy eating habits. I have researched many diets before finding Weight Watchers and new I could do this the rest of my life.

I do my own plan, exercise 4-5 times a week intense cardio, and try to stay between 1200-1400 calories a day, on Saturdays I indulge in one meal so I stay “sane”! It works for me!!

Charlie – What do you think about starting this discussion in the blog to lose forums? We may be able to get more of a dialogue going. Just a thought!

I am a WW's girl. I agree with your other commentors that it is easy to follow the flex plan because it does not feel like you are on a diet. Check out Christys last blog post..I want more sleep…

I’m on the Weight Watchers Core plan. I’ve done the Points program before, and I think Core works better for me. It teaches me more about portion control and when to stop eating. And I find that I don’t really crave those things I no longer eat. Dropping numbers on the scale definitely helps!

I would say I tend to follow the You on a Diet plan in general. It just makes sense to limit sugars, whites, certain oils etc. And including at least a 30 min walk each day is so doable. I also like that it focuses more on waist size than weight.

Good reply, Roni. Do others support this? Have different thoughts or theories? Hey, Miz. I stopped by for the pizza but you weren't there. You'll just have to fax me one tomorrow. I'm going to bed. Check out Charlie Hillss last blog post..Low Cal Honey

South Beach Living/ Low GI is what I am currently doing (just started incorporating into my diet a week ago). I chose low GI because I found I had trouble doing WW responsibly and to help control my PCOS. You can read about my trials with SBL/LGI at choosinglosing.blogspot.com!

Charlie – I hear (or read that) SO MANY TIMES! For me it’s not true, as the first time worked time a charm! ;~P But I know what you mean. Using your own words (or something close to them) In my opinion those people have not yet flipped “the switch”. It’s all about mindset and although Weight Watchers will “work” they aren’t ready to follow it, just like they wouldn’t be ready to follow some other plan. However, I think what makes WW a little different is the community and meeting aspect (*knowing not all attend meetings) For me the support meetings give you start to work on “the switch” as do blogs, online forums and other forms of community. WW is just good at this paired with 2 plans that meet a lot of personalty types. Just my 2 cents on you great question!
