Bottom Line
The points-based method of Weight Watchers is outdated and doesn’t go far enough to promote healthy lifestyle changes. For better success, stick with diets like Nutrisystem or Medifast.

I've been a lifetime member of WW for about 15 years and have been back and forth with it feeling I need the weekly meetings to stay on it, however for the past few times I've joined and rejoined, I'm finding it harder and harder to stick to it. I feel like all I do is think about food, what to eat, how much to eat, when to eat, etc all day long. I'm finding I don't like it as much anymore and I'm thinking that Nutrisystem might be worth a try. After all the $$$ I've spent at WW with buying some food,the books and meetings, it'll probably be less expensive.

I've done WW off and on for more than 20 years and never kept the weight off for very long each time I lost it. When I was at goal, I worked for WW and witnessed firsthand the merchandising of their organization. They are big on selling everything from cookbooks to snack bars to measuring spoons. It's all overpriced and cheaper versions can be found elsewhere without the WW branding.

They encourage being an e-tools member for $40 a month, claiming if you go to one meeting per week, you are paying an average of $10 per week. They get their money whether or not you attend meetings.

I'm ready to try something else and am considering Nutrisystem.

I have mixed feelings about ww. I never had a real problem with being overweight until I had my 4th child. After my 1st I attended ww to get off pregnancy weight(20) in 1978 on the old program and it worked. Same with #2. By #4 they had gone to the points system and although I've been back probably 7 times now I just have'nt succeeded. The info. is very basic, found NO real support from any of the leaders and felt the weight loss was soooo slow that I would just give up! True, if I had kept with it for a year or so I might have lost the weight but I need more inspirational and faster weight loss.. PLEASE don't lecture me on the SAFE 1-2 lbs. a week thing. Although I don't think rapid, unrealistic weight loss is healthy, creeping along with next to nothing in weight loss means you feel like your efforts are near fruitless and in the end you quit.
There has to be a better way. I have never been able to get one single friend to commit to a plan and I do think having a buddy would be very helpful. It's nice for some very dedicated people to lecture on not being lazy. I am not a lazy person and am very disciplined in many other areas of my life. Because I have seen such slow results on w.w. I have become very discouraged and unmotivated toward it. Having said that, it might work for you if you buddy up, don't have much to lose and are willing to go slowly.
