  • Well, the thing about Weight Watchers is that it does teach you how to eat right. They focus a lot on healthy eating, and the points values they create really put portion size into perspective.

  • I also did Weight Watchers. I just cancelled my account recently. It does work, yes. However, I have found the community here to be much more supportive.

  • Hello there! Nice to meet you! I am kind of the same. I am very good at eating during the week, and then when I get to the weekend, I tend to splurge on dinner with my fiance, who just never gains weight! Hope you are having a good day. Jen
