Hi I tried to do weight watchers for a few weeks but when I counted the points and then the calories... guess what... is the same as MFP, but the biggest difference that made me come back to MFP... IT IS FREE!!!!! And I can get the same support from my MFP peeps.
Now a bit about myself, I'm 36 yoa and a mother of two. I'm 5'4" and will like to loose about 25lbs. My current weight is 169 and I have PCOS which makes it very difficult to loose weight.
So, if you're on your mid to late 30's, around 5'4" and will like to loose between 20 and 30 lbs.... I will love to be your friend, so we can support each other through this hard journey... Grace

    I liked it and did loose about 5 lbs on the 4wks I was a member but I really did not like paying the $43 fee.

    I also tried weight watchers...never saw a pound lost. I felt too much freedom and not knowledgeable in what I was eating. I love that MFP is free and tracks my protein, sugar, fat, fiber, etc. I feel more capable of seeing results since it is based on calories and not points
