I tried Weight Watchers and just couldn’t stick with it. Anyone else?

    I am not going to double trac so I came back here.

    I do agree with others that WW counts healthy fats to high.

    This.

    I lost 96 pounds on WW and still go to the meetings and once-a-month lifetime wi. Won't ever knock them, but with Freestyle, I decided to see what my calorie consumption was. Not gonna double track, so I chose here. Every so often I track the day's food in WW and MFP to compare. I am always around the 23 dailies, and most days into the weeklies. So WW is not that far off, at least for me. Sometimes I'll have 2000 calorie days here and they're super high on WW.

    My friend is down 40lbs on WW and loves it, so I signed up for 2 months, I think I actually tracked about 2 weeks and said screw this and stopped tracking, the following month I cancelled it and came back to MFP. I can't stand not knowing how many calories I've eaten. You could eat way too much or way too little on WW and not know it.

    It worked for me on one of the older systems but only when I counted 0 point foods. I feel like they completely left out those of us who never learned or forgot how to "eat until satisfied". Uhhh, that's how I got fat in the first place. If I knew how to eat until satisfied, I wouldn't needed any type of program.
