I know it's got some sort of point system, but I don't know exactly how it works.

Also, I was reading on the website that the meetings are supposed to be VERY important, but why is this exactly? What goes on at these meetings?



Who would you recommend this program to?

Anything else you'd like to add about it would be great!

I only know the point system. I don't know about the other one. I think the meetings are more for support and encouragement from other folks that are stuggling the same as you. They weigh you in and award ribbons for certain amounts lost. You do not have to attend meetings. You can also join online.
With the point system, you are allowed a certain amount of points IIRC according to your weight. Every food has points (they give you a calculator if needed) and you just add up your points for the day. I believe all fruits and veggies are free so that means you can eat as much as you want.
I would recommend it to anyone and everyone. I think it's a great program if used correctly to not only lose weight but just maintain a balanced healthy lifestyle.
I am currently cleansing my body. When my cleanse is complete, I will be joining my local WW.
I hope I helped alittle. I joined WW like 9 years ago and then stopped going. At that time in my life, I wasn't committed 100%. I have a lot of friends that have successfully lost weight and kept it off doing WW. WW changed their lives and the way they looked at food.
If you commit to the program, you will be successful.

I have done WW in the past, but had never went to the meetings. I started going to them a couple months back. They have really helped me. I do the flex plan and get extra points for breastfeeding. I really like the flex plan.

I just started WW 4 weeks ago, We dont have any meetings near us, so I have been doing everything online. I LOVE IT! It is just what I needed to loose weight! I am down 8lbs now. I am on the flex plan, the best part is, its not really a diet, you can eat what you normally do, just in moderation. If you have any questions please feel free to pm me.

I love ww it works great. I do think that my supply has gone down since I started ww. But other than that I highly recommend it.
