    I am currently doing WW. The new Propoints system is really good as you have a daily total and also a weekly total of 49 points that you can either use ie split teem into 7 days to give you extra daily points or save them for a special occasion. If you are bf I haven't checked sorry then you get 14 extra daily points if you have started weaning top ups of FF or food then it reduces to 7 extra daily points plus the 49 weekly. If your bf average weight loss they like you to loose is 500gm per week. If you use all of your 49 points you will still loose something.

    I like WW because I need to be held accountable I have tried doing it online but there is no one to keep me honest. I stay for the meeting each week and I feel spurred on to loose the following week and the ladies & gents in my class are fantastic. My goal is to loose 16kgs. WW is using real food and learning how to eat healthy for all the family. I have chosen my favourite recipes and added them on to the online recipe building tool giving them all a Propoints value.

    So far I have lost 2.8kg in 5wks, I am bf and I have had some weeks where I have had functions and thought I would never loose such as when we had a function with some Indian friends and they make devine curries and you can't say no!. I still lost 300gms.

    It's my weigh in tonight and I've been really good so hoping for a biggish loss. It's also my me time with no kidlets. Even though DS1 always wants to come lol.

    I could have made this thread myself! Just a few days ago I started looking into WW - it sounds really good and I think the meetings really help people stay motivated - but I just don't like the cost.

    Good luck finding something that you are happy with LMP!!
