Yep I ordered it from the uk site yesterday. Looking forward to it arriving - although I'm happy no one will witness my crimes against dance! :)

The workouts are great! There are 7 of them - they are challenging and lots of variety. That's what I was interested in and they were worth the purchase price to me. I bought mine from Amazon so no 'coach' or multi-level marketing stuff to deal with. Other than a check on my portion sizes the day the pack arrived I haven't…

WW doesn't have an end date any more than calorie counting on MFP does. There is a maintenance component to WW - where (surprise!) your number of points (calories in disguise) are increased. I followed WW for a while and when I was looking for something cheaper to replace it with logged my WW days in MFP and nutracheck (a…

A WW point is about 40 calories. So 26 points is about 1040 calories PLUS your fruit and veg.

I considered defecting but didn't. I'm a WW online user - tried MFP, nutracheck, and Jillian Michaels (oh! and FitBit) but have decided to stick with WW and FitBIt to track activity. Lost 70lbs so far in 2012 so it's working well. MFP feels a bit clunky to me - and there is so much conflicting information on the message…

I've been following WW propoints since January and have lost 70 lbs so far. Like many things - you get out of it what you want. It has done a lot to teach me about portion control. The zero point fruit and veg are great and steer me towards healthier options. I've double tracked a couple of weeks and my WW points, plus…

I have no idea what the real stats are on BL contestants who regain weight -- but the reality is that the stats in the 'real world' (right here on MFP, Weight Watchers, Dukan, Atkins....) of people who regain their weight are pretty dismal. Studies/research quote 80 - 90% of dieters regain all or MORE of what they lost. I…

Definitely one of the most sensible things I've seen posted here. Thanks!

Unfortunately, none of those devices will tell you if your metabolism has been messed up as they all assume a normal metabolism and all of their calculations start with that base assumption.

I've lost over 50 pounds since mid-January on WW - and I really like the plan. As others have mentioned, WW set your points level (effectively your calorie target) lower to allow for the zero point fruit. You also get weekly points that you spread out over the week however you like, which helps when fitting it evenings…

I do WW online - so no meetings or public weigh ins for me! I have considered moving to MFP (or Nutracheck or Fitbit or...) to save a bit of money but I like the WW plan, and I like the online tracker and tools. It's working well (which helps!) and I guess I'm just comfortable with it.

Well, I know this is pointless but I'll try. Most WW'ers are on 26-29 points per day (it varies by height, weight, age and gender) which equates to approximately 1040 - 1160 calories day. On top of that you have zero point fruit and veg - to be eaten to 'satisfaction' (not binge). (You do get more points the more…
