Weight Watchers Review

I first joined Weight Watchers on-line last September, 2006.   My son was 1 1/2 and I was still carrying around 25 pounds of baby fat so it was time to get off the couch and do something.

 I joined the on-line community and selected the points system.  At first it was hard to determine portion size and to really understand what I was eating.  Once I got the hang of what proper portion size was and kept a daily log of everything I ate (even including the cream and sugar in my coffee) I began to see places where I could cut back on calories and fat and start to eat healthier. 

 It took 8 months of following the plan and going to curves 3x per week but I was able to lose all of the 25 pounds of baby fat and feel alot better about myself.

I have been off plan now for a year and still maintain most of the healthy eating habits, even convinced my husband to eat healthier too.  I have gained back about 5 pounds but have myself to blame...not going to the gym like I should and cheating on the healthy eating more than I should.

Reading these reviews has helped me recommit to keeping a food log (perhaps the most visual help there is) and to get back to the gym...my kids and my husband need a healthy mom / wife!
