Weight Watchers Reviews

At this point in the history of Weight Watchers there are a few different ways you can work this program. I use the point system. At one time I could eat between 18-23 points a day. This is based on my weight. The program now gives me a fixed number - 20 - with 35 points a week to use whenever I want. The math is the same; they have just put the numbers out a bit differently. I don't believe it matters.

All of my life I had struggled with my weight. Between my love for food and my resistance to "diet plans" (really, how does a plan where you starve yourself for a limited time keep the weight off long term?)
