I'm just wondering how many people are on here that have tried WW? I myself am one of them. Their new system just does NOT work for me.

    I did WW for about seven months and it worked for me really well. I left before they introduced the Points Plus system. Too much money and time for this college girl! Why don't you like it?

    I did WW about 8 years ago, but I think it is different now. It worked well, but the cost and time commitment became an issue. I do like the accountability of being weighed in by someone else every week though. I'm hoping I can do as well tracking my own progress here on MFP.

    I did the online version where I did NOT have to go to groups. The first time I did amazing and lost 50lbs, hit a plateau and found absolutly NO support from either my Dr or the WW community so I quit. Then this past January I wanted to try it again hoping for the same results and I've only lost 14lbs since January. Instead of counting Calories and Protien. WW no longer counts cals, they count, carbs, fiber, protien and sugar.

    Did ww online. Cancelled a few weeks ago. I love MFP. It really easy to find the foods you are looking for and easy to enter in to your diary.

    I did it years ago and it worked well, but I found the meetings, at least in our area, to be really cheesy and condescending and I chose not to spend the time anymore. Not long after, I stopped doing what I had learned and gained all the weight back and then some (a bunch),

    Im a former WW member. I lost 61 pounds but gained half it back. I love MFP way better so far. I don't have to count points! Yay! And I totally don't understand the new program either!

    The best part is that MFP is free :)
