Weight Watchers, yes or no?

Okay my Mom and me just started Weight Watchers a weak ago and my Mom is going strong on it! We just got back from a meeting and she lost 4 pounds! I am very proud of her, but I only lost 1 pound, which I was expectinng because I haven't really been that excited about it.  I know I need to loose weight and I am really going to try, but I thought I would ask  all of you if you have joined Weight Watchers or if you had any tips on weight loss that would help me.
Has it worked for you?

I feel your pain with trying to lose weight. One reason I started my blog "Sparkling Mimi's Journey" was to help keep me accountable. However, in my case I didn't do well. I haven't given up, just taking a break for the moment.I've known people who have done Weight Watchers and did extremely well and then I've known others who didn't do so hot. I think it's a matter of finding what works for you. A couple of things I've learned. First and foremost if you think in terms of it being a diet then you are setting yourself up to fail. It has to be a lifestyle change. Make a choice to eat in a healthy manner and you won't feel so deprived. Diet alone doesn't work either. You have to exercise and lastly, calories "do" count.

Check out the following website. You will find a ton of motivation there and it's a free site. http://www.sparkpeople.com/ I'm a member too. You'll find me under Sparkling Mimi. :)

There is all kinds of good advise from people who are struggling with the same issue. Good Luck on this journey and keep us posted on your progress. I know it's not an easy road to travel but I have no doubt in my mind that you can do anything you put your mind to.

Blessings,
Mimi
