Hi, I am looking to lose about 76 lbs. Started the WW PP plan but it did not work for me. I am doing the original Points system on my own, and Using mfp to calculate my nutrients. I totally love this site btw.. I am looking for friends who are doing the same or just using WW in general so I can have online support. Thanks!

    I am going to WW and doing point plus and logging in here and on the WW site. I feel like it makes me sooooooo much more accountable to be doing both. I need the meetings for the support, inspiration etc so I do meetings on Saturdays. Feel free to add me.

    I am doing the new WW PP plan. I started it just before I started MFP and will continue WW for at least 10 weeks in order to be reimbursed by my employer but I am finding food tracking on MFP easier and am relying more heavily on that for the past 2 weeks.

    has the PP plan worked for u thus far? I am also finding that mfp is much easier to keep track of, but the WW original plan for me is what works best
  • I lost 30 lbs by following the Weight Watchers plan. I have been maintaining since September of 2010! WW was a great way to open up my eyes to how I was actually eating and it was a great lifestyle change.

    Now I have been using MFP to just track my daily calories, etc.

    I wish you the best of luck!!

    I lost 18 pounds on the old ww. I did not really like the new system an eventualy dropped out. I gained 9 lbs after that :(

    Then I found this site and lost 7 pounds!

    I think ww was better at encouraging us to eat fruits and veggies. But MFP I find easier overall becuase calories are much easier to track. And by joing the challenges and tracking my exercise, I exercise lots more. And its free :)

    I do both...I find Mfp gives me added support/accountability. I'm 3.6 away from my lifetime goal. Feel free to add me!

    I lost 42 lbs on the old WW program. I have maintained over the years. I want to loose another 10 and was not finding success on the new program. I honestly dont think I was eating enough points. I have just joined MFP. Feel free to join me as a friend. I know exactly what you are going through and have lived with points for years!
