HoodiaP57 - Pure 20X Strength Certified Hoodia
This product is simply as good as Hoodia gets. It is 100% certified, pure Hoodia from South Africa. It also boasts 20X the strength. If any Hoodia product is going to suppress appetite, this is the one. We also like that HoodiaP57 contains nothing else except pure Hoodia -- no fillers and no stimulants. This means it is safe to take whenever you want – including close to bed time. There are hundreds of Hoodia products on the market now, but we don’t even bother to list them on this site, because 99% of them are just cheap imitation Hoodia that is not even from South Africa, where the P57 molecule is the most effective. We chose HoodiaP57 to be on DietBlogTalk because it is of the utmost quality. The maker even includes a certificate of origin from the South African government stating the Hoodia originates from there. This product has nearly a perfect ‘Thumbs Up’ score. Check this one out.

Slim10® - 10 Patented, Proven Ingredients - 1 Pill
Slim 10® has hit the marketplace with a huge bang. This is the first and only weight loss pill ever made that has combined 10 different patented, clinically proven effective ingredients. And to top it off, they added 500mg of pure South African Hoodia in a 20X potency to every serving. This pill is pure weight loss science. In fact, with this many award-winning ingredients in one capsule, we don’t see how anyone could not lose weight by taking it. Each of these effective ingredients is standardized so you always get a product you can count on, and they all have not just one, but several clinical studies backing their claims. The Slim 10® customers say it all—check out these enthusiastic postings on the blog. In fact, Slim 10® is on par with the best diet pills around like Nuphedrine® and HoodiaP57®. Nuphedrine is definitely the strongest of the three pills on metabolism boosting, and HoodiaP57 is the best for just pure appetite suppression, but Slim 10® is the most balanced of all of them in terms of a variety of 100% clinically proven and patented ingredients. The truth is, it really just depends on what pill is best for the consumer—some will do better with Nuphedrine, others with HoodiaP57, and of course some with Slim10®. We can definitely say that you can’t go wrong with Slim 10® in terms of losing weight. Read a full Slim 10 Review Here.

MiracleBurn®
Miracleburn® is a pretty amazing phenomenon. It has consistently received one of the highest ‘Thumbs Up’ blog ratings on our site. The really amazing part is that most of their customers come from word of mouth, and it is quickly becoming one of the most popular diet products available. The maker of Miracleburn® doesn’t spend tens of millions on advertising like alli®, Hydroxycut® or Curvelle to hype their product. They simply let their satisfied customers virtually do the marketing for them. We suggest reading through the postings. The formula consists of a quality form of Hoodia, combined with the patented metabolism booster, Advantra-Z®. It also has several other balancing secondary ingredients. Part of what makes their product such an effective crowd-pleaser is the manufacturing technique and perfect balance of ingredients. Read a full MiracleBurn Review Here.

HoodiaBites
This product is just what it sounds like - chewable Hoodia pieces. The good news is that they actually use a superior quality form of Hoodia, and it works. In fact, this is probably the fastest way to feel Hoodia, because when you eat it, it digests so much quicker. In fact, most customers report that it works in minutes not hours like traditional capsules. The chewable pieces are very much like a piece of taffy and taste good. They kick in faster than a quality Hoodia pill, and definitely do the trick. They are only a few calories per piece, and may be taken safely throughout the day.

Slimaluma™
(U.S. Patent 7,060,308) -- We found that this ingredient is proven to drastically suppress the appetite. When you’re hungry, the hypothalamus tells the brain that food is needed. And when the stomach is full, the hypothalamus tells the brain to stop eating. Slimaluma™ sends a signal to the hypothalamus telling the brain that your stomach is full, which helps people eat much less. The customers speak highly of Slimaluma™ -- but it needs to be used in a supportive diet capsule with other essential ingredients.

Rocco Cuva: Weight Watchers is not a diet but teaches to you to make good choices and portion control leading to weight loss

Sabrina: I liked the Weight Watchers Flexible Food plan at first but I have since realized that it may be a little TOO flexible for a no willpower bacon lover like me. I need discipline and deprivation in order to really lose weight and keep it off. I also need some kind of energy pill because I feel slow and sluggish even though the weather is lovely. sigh.

FreelyWilliams: I think the approach with Weight Watchers is really smart and fresh and perfect for the 21st century woman who is savvy and much more healthy-conscious. That said, I haven’t lost quite as much as I wanted to on this diet and am considering just adding a natural supplement, what do you guys think? Whats the best with WW?

Angela: Being on Weight Watchers is teaching me a thing or two about what I should be eating, and how much, but, I do still get cravings that I cannot control from time to time, and sometimes I give in. I know its probably hurting my progress, is there a way to avoid this?

Stacia: Wow well i thought dieting meant giving up all of my fun, but on Weight Watchers, they actually give you a whole guide for drinking! Low cal, of course…Still, this diet has been so much easier because I don’t feel deprived. When I really get a craving and need to get it under control I take a natural appetite suppressant (usualy hoodia) and I’m fine. Seriously though, being allowed to have a fruity cocktail without feeling guilty makes the whole diet worth it!

Sue MacKinnon: I do have one major concern about the Core Diet Plan. What if I get used to eating these foods until I am totally full, and then if i go off the diet, i continue to eat regular foods like that? There are some foods you just can’t eat utnil you are full. Like Cheese fries!

Faby: For once I am losing weight and it feels so good! I never had success with other diets and I think Weight Watchers has so many OPTIONS. I am also using a natural supplement with a thermogenic which I’m sure is also very helpful but I feel proud of the work I am doing.

Alex: I like the Weight Watchers eat what you like plan because I believe that many diets force you to reduce caloric intake too quickly and your metabolism slows way down. I am very conscious of how my body is changing as I age and I have never been wary of taking a natural capsule like a diet pill if for instance you know you need to burn more calories to lose weight. It’s all healthy and it’s all good.

jules: is there Weight Watchers for vegetarians? IF so, how would you folks rate the food? On some diets, all you get is a bunch of pasta.

Nance: Does it matter that Weight Watchers doesn’t really say anything about using diet pills? I guess maybe if it helps you to stay on the plan it’s a good thing. I am feeling some major cravings and i feel like some HOodia would get me thru.

diana: i LOOVE the weight watchers ice cream cones!! The chocolate fudge tastes just as good as any “regular” ice cream i have ever had, I swear.

Lori: Yes, i agree with that first statement from Rocco, Weight Watchers is a way of life that, I feel, is not “Extreme” or dramatic, but subtle, slow and steady. It is about making smart choices while ALSO STILL ENJOYING GOOD FOOD! Imagine that. For me, i guess i felt like my situation was an “emergency” so at the beginning, I supplemented my Weight Watchers plan with a diet pill to get the ball rolling initially. This combination was just perfect, the weight began to come off, and now I just stick to the time tested principles of weight watchers and it seems to be working.

Janie: So I’ve been going to the Weight Watchers meetings and I didn’t really know what do expect, but naturally expected the worst, like some drill sergeant would be telling me what do to and criticizing me for being overweight. The opposite happened; everyone was very supportive and I’ve been learning a lot from the program.

Karen: Well, I do like the idea of a lasting diet that can help you maintain your loss, but all those “points” sound confusing to me. I have always been bad with math and numbers. Is there maybe a verision of Weight Watchers where you don’t have to keep track of “points”? I know maybe that is asking a lot but i just want something where i can keep it simple. Please someone let me know!

lisette: Somebody had asked about counting Points and all of that stuff…for you, the Core Plan of WEight Watchers would probably be just the thing. It’s what i do. You just pick from a variety of healthy foods and you can EAT THEM UNTIL YOU ARE FULL. It’s a pretty cool plan.

Zahra: I don’t know about the idea of eating ANYTHING until i am full, because I feel like I NEVER AM FULL. So as much as the Core Plan appeals to me I’m not sure I could keep it under control. Hmm. Is there any way to do this plan without going overboard?

kaye: still unsure how i feel about Weight Watchers. It’s a little fussy and social for my taste. I like to do things independently and I also don;t mind taking the right pill if it suits my needs.

Claudia: Every time the days start getting longer, I SWEAR I’ll get the weight off, but it never seems to happen. So Im now trying Weight Watchers and it seems to be working okay. But, I’m taking a road trip soon and am really worried I’ll just totally get out of whack and go crazy with the fast food or something. I printed the food guide from the website and hope it helps, but I might also bring an appetite suppressant along, just in case.

CatalinaMoreliaAlfred: hello so I am definitely interested in trying out Weight Watchers (& switching from another program for middle aged women that uses famous fat ladies in their ads) but am wondering what we’re talking about in terms of weight loss actually. I haven’t seen the quick success I want… None of my friends are heavy and they don’t understand my obsession with food. I really want to trim down for my anniversary but I want to be healthy of course too.

brenda: Well, I think that Weight Watchers is not about Quick Success, it is a out lasting success. You just have to be dedicated and stay on course & you’ll see.

Jennifer: I see others have mentioned supplements, and I’d like to say that Nuphedrine (http://www.nuphedrine.com/ ) seems to be very popular.

Jayda: I know I can try this for free but once I picked up some wight watheers stuff that looked really really tasty i the freezer section. i’d tryed lean cusine, but it wasn’t so hot either.Do you have to eat these meels while on the diet bcs if so, i don’t want to.

Justine: It’s time to give this another shot, and what a perfect opportunity, free trial & all. ANyways, I was on Weight Watchers about 10 years ago & hated counting points AND going to the meetings. Too much of a chore. But it seems like they’ve made a lot of changes to the plan now, and being able to get so much info online will really help me I think. I will try the Core Plan, we’ll see how I do this time around.

Noelle: I agree that dieting is all about self-control and volition. that’s why people who get fat surgery always go back to being obese. they never have to learn to eat appropriate portions and exercise in moderation. Weight Watchers is teaching me so much about life and nutrition.

connie: do they allow u to take diet pills on WW then bcs i think i need some help too.

Cherry Lane: OI have made good progress. I am keeping a food journal and I have almost broken my habit of snacking after work. I try and take yoga or just write about my feelings. I am wondering about supplements… I think there are good ones out there that keep you mantaining your weight and I want to try one but I don’t want anyone to think I am cheating because I am being very good!

kimberleigh: so weight watchers isn’t a fad diet i guess i always thought it was cuz u can buy the frozen meals just like atkins and zone and south beach and all these other diets. i just joined a gym butt i don eat too well so i guess i will try this too.

Byrdie: The Weight Watchers recipes sound so yummy! I will never go back to being a junk food junkie.

Sasha: You all might wanna try slim shots, they might help with your cravings, keeping your points lower. I’ve found that if I drink em in the mornings I never get hungry again until the next meal, so I don’t have to worry as much about my total calorie intake.

sandra milsek: Well I have tried weight watchers, it’s just a no-go. I tried the Core plan because i hate counting and points, but I found myself overeaitng on it. Sigh.

Alameda: Do I have to have a food scale to do Weight Watchers cause I don’t know where to get one but I was thinking I could just use my bathroom scale. I would clean it first of course.

Terri: Just thinking about starting the program and have been enjoying all the articles and recipes so far. Will see how it goes!

Sharona: Interesting what you are saying about combining products with weight watchers. I never thought of that but if anything can make me feel good and help me stick to my meal points plan I am all for it.

Jillian: Slim 10 contains the most patented ingredients of any diet product I have seen. Here is the link http://www.slim10.com/offer.

Katrina: Weight Watchers is tried and true. It keeps me disciplined and if I have a meal plan to follow,and have all the guidelines, it keeps me honest about what I’m eating. And you know that old saying about cheating? How if you cheat you’re only cheating yourself? Weight Watchers is right on with that!

lindsey: Weight Watchers no wonder it has been around for years.

Carol Burrows: Do not use the weightwatchers online system, it is inflexible and difficult to use. They forced me to set a weight loss goal fo 10% of start weight, even though I neede to lose much more. When I reached that artificial goal they put me on their maintenance plan even though I am still obviously overweight. When I tried to reset my weight loss goal they said I couldn’t as I had already reached the goal THEY had set for me! According to them it is only possible to go back onto the weight loss programme by falsifying the record of my past weights so that they do not go below the 10% target. I tried to do this, following their instructions to the letter, but it didn’t work. I shall cancel and try some other option.

Wendy in TX: CORE all the way. I tried weight watchers once when they only had the Flex plan and did lose about 20 lbs but quit the program when my mom did because I hate having to track any and everything that goes in my mouth. After being out on disability, I came back to work and one of my coworkers had lost a lot of weight. She said she was on Weight Watchers and explained they had the Core option now. With Core you eat healthy foods form an extensive list and eat till your SATISFIED. If 10 min later you realize you want more, then EAT MORE. I love it. Simple to follow and I don’t track a thing except non-Core foods. I have lost 25lbs in the last 4 months. It is slow and steady but thats what wins the race, right.

reina: I am the “odd ball” case! I tried everything but never lost weight unless I was pregnant! I joined weight watchers and GAINED weight my first three weeks! I was in tears, ready to quit when my leader had a one on one “session” with me. I was not eating enough! You have to eat your points if you are on the flex plan! I have lost 23.4 pounds since (eating like a pig!)and I thank my leader every day for helping me. I still have a lot to loose but I am hooked! I will continue to reach my weight loss goals! Weight watchers is perfect for my busy life style and the best part is- my family don’t even know which foods I have switched to “weight watchers!” ha ha!!!

Karen R: I have done the WW a couple of different times in the last 20 yrs. It works every time, as long as I stay consisten with it. It gears you towards more healthy eating choices, and it also makes you more aware of how MUCH you eat. I am doing it now, just myself, not going to a group or anything, and as long as I do it, it works. The point system is not hard once you get in the swing of it. It doesn’t take long to remember points for foods you eat all the time, and most veggies are 0 pts, so you can eat as much as you want and fill up on those. The WW desserts are pretty yummy, too. I don’t eat a lot of processed foods, so I don’t usually eat the WW prepared meals, but they are okay. Another thing is to try to have someone do it with you. Accountability really helps me. My problem is I get in temptation when my family wants to eat fried chicken or pizza, etc., and I can have those things, but I usually over indulge. Hang in there everyone.

amy: Weight Watchers is definitely an awesome plan…seems like, not just a diet but a true lifestyle change. It’s for the long haul. But yeah, sometimes i feel like i need a little extra willpower, esp. when people around me are pigging out on yummy stuff and i want to control myself, so i take Nuphedrine, they have 2 appetite suppressants and a metabolism booster in them. I feel they help keep me on track and stick with my program.

Shari: I lost 25 pounds and kept it off with the Core Plan and exercising (walking, Walk Away the Pounds and The Firm)for 4 years. It has gotten a bit harder to keep the weight off since I turned 40; I set my goal weight very low, and I am questioning whether or not I need to re-visit that.

Louise: I tried WW a couple of years ago. I did the points and filled up on junk for my points. My sister is on the Core Plan and loves it. She’s inspired me to try the Core Plan. Her whole family is basically on it and feel healthier although she’ll substitute something for herself if the family is eating something she won’t eat. Her husband is looking healthy too. The kids like the recipes she’s using. I’ll be back to read more!

Connie: I have tried about every diet and now going to see how i do on weight watchers. I have been on Atkins, TNT, cookie diet, Jenny Craig and became a vegetarian at one time. I miss being able to eat foods that I love and so hope that weight watchers will work better than the rest. Volumetrics is good and makes sense that weight watchers uses this concept too.

Kim: I love WW. I have been doing the points for 9 months, I have lost 50lbs so far. (10 more to my goal) I like ww so much because it is easy and a healthy way to get rid of the extra pounds. If your life is too crazy now and cant make it to the meetings thats fine. I did ww with out the meetings. I went to a ww store and bought the books, they are very helpful and you just have to be motivated.:) Good Luck everyone

margaret: Weight Watchers seems to have gotten a lot simpler and more “user friendly” than it used to be also you can get a lot of weight watcher foods and snacks right at the grocery store. To me that makes it easier to incorporate into normal life. I’m just starting out, but I’m feeling very optimistic about my chances of success.

Brynne: It seems like their used to be a diffrent stigma attached with weight watchers and it was a program i had no interest in at all, for years. I did every other diet from cabbage soup to lemonade and i could easly dropa few lbs fast but i never stayed off. now that i’m able to try Weight Watchers at no cost, i’m going for hte core plan. i think it looks fun and seems to allow for much better foods than I ever suspected.

Fatburner: Is weight watcher like south beach you have to follow the diet forever?

Bennett: I like it that I can incorporate the frozen meals that are at the grocery store with the Flex Plan, and that it’s all ready all counted out for you. I also think that the snack bars are great, keep one in my purse when I just can’t stand not eating another minute…overall, it’s working for me, but it’s so S-L-O-W!!!!! Do you think that exercising every day would help? Seems like a lot of commitment, and I wish there were an easier way, I’m starting to feel a bit obsessive…

GraceTN: I am not really familiar with South Beach but yes, when you do weight watchers, i think you should stick with the new healthy diet, maybe with more flexibility as you go along?

daisy_dukes: WEll I don’t know how anyone could flollow Weight watchers without using the POINTS, i think i would just go crazy with the food options. I needa know exactly waht i can and cant’ NOT eat its the only ways I can follow the diet.

Davie: sounds like weight watchers is more for people who want too loose weight over a long period of time. Am I right? In that case it’s probably not for me.

katie: Well have any of you tried the Weight Watchers’ Ice cream cups from the store? absolutely delicious! I recommend the chocolate fudge. Its really nice to know you can expect a certain quality from WW snacks and meals when you go to the store. To me that is HUGE.

Vicky: I think there are probably faster ways to lose weight then Weight Watchers but I feel like this is working. Slow and steady wins the race for me.

Alan: That’s my problem I am not liking any of the pre-made meals or drinks or bars Weight Watchers makes and I don’t have time to cook that much during the weak. What do you guys suggest?

selma g.: SOUTH BEACH IS THE BEST DIET THERE IS..WEIGHT WATCHERS IS OK BUT SOUTH BEACH IS THE BEST! THE FOOD IS AWESOME AND TI WORKS. I KNOW I HAVE USED BOTH.

Leah: You have to be realistic. I think. It’s all about doing the work and having support. I have to do the work. Weight Watchers provides a lot of good things. I am losing, a little slow, but at least I am doing it on my own with a little help which is good I think.

neesie: Weight Watchers is NOT a “quick fix” for weight loss….you have to stick with it and be determined. But the rewards are that you seem to lose it the RIGHT WAY and i think most people are able to KEEP it off.

Daniela: South Beach is good if you don’t like carbs like I do. Weight Watchers is more balanced and that is why I think it is better. Thumbs Up.

joseph: I didn’t think too much of WEight Watchers at first, i thought it was for people who weren’t strong enough to do it on their own. But it does help to get support and advice, and esp. to have meal plans you can stick too. Better than I thought.

Cathy: I am giving a big cheerful thumbs up! for Weight Watchers. With this diet/lifestyle plan I feel I have learned a lot and continue to learn every day about my body, about food and about fitness.

mary: I think Weight Watchers works best for people who are ready and willing to really COMMIT to it and be faithful to the diet.

SAMANTHA719: I’ll def. look into Slim10. hopefully it will help get things going for my weight loss! :)

Lila: There are definitely some great recipes from Weight Watchers. I am learning to cook for my family in new and interesting ways. I cannot believe my husband and children are enjoying eating vegetables. I am loving the diet and with the help of “willpower” I am losing weight nicely.

Donna: Good to hear I am not the only one who is impatient to see the weight go away. weight Watchers is definately the diet for me, no doubts about that. It makes sense and I for the first time I am loosing weight on a diet. So, I just wish I could loose it faster.

terry_hanes: Wel I think Weight Watchers work because they got every aspect covered for helping people loose they weight. Diet & excercise & behavior all plays a part in gaining AND losing. I do admit to snacking sometimes tho & until I can control that better (it is sort of habitual i think) i am happy taking appetite suppressants (hoodia) for making me not think about it so much.

cynthia: ladies, i know it might take a while to loose the weight with Weight Watchers but HANG IN THERE! Permanent change takes time, has been my experience with it!!!

barbara: Weight Watchers online version helps me with lots of “real life” scenarios, like finding something healthy to eat at a work lunch, going out to dinner, getting thru the holidays, etc. these are all situations where normally i cave in and fall off the wagon. But the cool thing about Weight Watchers is that the program really does seem to support me and help with strategies for those kinds of situations.

Emma: Weight Watchers is based on 4 pillars – behavior, food, support and exercise. IT sounds simple, but really, these are so important. The best part, in my opinion is the support. Weight Watchers is there for you and doesnt let you get off track. For me that is HUGE. I also give myself some added support by taking a Hoodia pill for appetite. That’s my little 5th pillar. But all in all, this is the most comprehensive diet i have ever been on, and it’s working.

Delilah: JUst wondering, is the support 24 hours? Sometimes I am still up at 2 a.m. and all I wanna do is snack. Will weight watchers be there for me at that time??

Barbara: A bit confusing at first for me, counting points ect felt a bit gimmicky. ;)

Shannon: Yes of course Delilah, I have read you have online support 24/7.

kate: I’m a night binger too…seems like there’s almost always another lonely snacker out there in cyber space.

salisbury_jr: I saw the ultimate walking challenge on the website and i’ve decided to train for a half marathon (walking, not running). sometimes i guess you just need to spice things up, i;m glad this program has extra tips.

Patti: Well, of course most diets ARE boring, and i think maybe people get “impatient” because Weight Watchers is more gradual than other programs. I have done so many diets in the past where i lost the weight quickly, then gained it back just as quickly. That’s what happens when you have that “instant gratification” mentality. That feeling of wanting it NOW! is also the reason so many people eat fast food! which is how we got where we are in the first place. I think sooner or later, we all learn that we have to slow down, have patience, and really strive for lasting results.

Melody: I am seriously considering supplements to help me burn more fat. I love weight watchers don’t get me wrong but I think I would be happier if I reached my goal sooner. I saw a couple names were mentioned above and I may just try one of those. Overall it’s a great program though.

Norrie: The articles and recipes are interesting, not boring at all. You have to think of Weight Watchers as a lifestyle not just a diet. Most likely it took years to put thw weght on, so it will take some time to come off. Stick with it, Weight watchers works, just takes a little patience!

kelli: so but can you take an appetite suppressant while your own Weight Watchers? Is it OK?

bridget: In my opinion, I don’t think there is anything wrong with taking a thermogenic (Fat burning) supplement while on Weight Watchers. I am liking the plan so far.

Tisha: So far, I am dealing with cravings phases at time, but overall, the weight watchers point system is working for me.

Blyss: It is working slowly but it does seem to be working for me. thumb up for weight watchers. pretty neat program

Zoe: Working out seem to help accelerate the process, at least for me. Weight Watchers seems to be working better that way.

rhonda: I don’t like Tracking everything all the time so i don’t do the journal thing. i just kind of plan my meals and stick to ‘em. I really like the fact that i get support and i don’t have to go to what to me sound like uncomfortable meetings. I manage it all myself and it seems to be working.

Maryanne: THe way I think about Weight Watchers is just like a basic guideline for eating right and staying active. I like that it and it seems to be doing me good.

liza: I am happy to be trying Weight Watchers, it seem to be working pretty well for me. I like the online program, it helps at keeping track and staying on track too.

debbie: So far I am really pleased with what I have read about Weight watchers.

Claire: I guess my fist observation so far is that Weight Watchers seem to work if someone is committed to learn a new way of eating and who is aware that it will take time to get to your goal.

BOBO: What is the best weight watchers frozen food available.

Ella: The weight watchers online program looks good. :)

diane: I like eating the little Weight Watchers chocolate snack bars. I just have 1 or 2 per day and it helps curb my cravings and hold me over til dinner. I am liking the program so far.

michelle: some of the things weight watchers has done to make losing weight easier for people is really smart, i think,its like they address a lot of the reasons why our country has become so fat. This is so far a good experience.

Camille: For me chocolate is once I taste it I can’t stop, so I stay away from all of weight watchers snacks for that reason. I am a lot stricter than the plan with myself.

Terriann: I like eating healthy meals and exercising, feels like i am doing something good for my body.

EDEN: This didn’t work for me. Not sure why. I guess the keeping count was a too much work for me. I know healthy food from unhealthy but I don’t know what equals what on the WW scale. Couldn’t get used to it.

maggie: i have learned to control myself and know what my “trigger” foods are so yeah, i steer clear of the chocolate snacks bcs i know i will eat too many. but there are still lots of other delicious snacks that i eat on weight watchers in moderation. Esp. love the ice creams (not choc of course) and the cookies.

PatDan: I am at the point now where i just buy the weight watchers frozen entrees for work so i have a healthy lunch. I take a hoodia supplement to get me through the rest of the day though. So far, i feel like Its working for me.

kimberly: I do have my “weak moments,” that’s for sure because it can be tough with those cravings, but overall it’s a good program and do feel like i loosing weight.

Geraldine: I like what I have read about the plan.

Dirk: It isn’t a diet. It is a program that teaches you how to eat healthy and responsibly. For it to succeed, you are basically agreeing to eat healthy the rest of your life. The mistake is when people try to use it as a diet program. It is easy to loose weight with the program. The mistake comes when people loose the weight they want, and then think they can go back to eating how they did before. That is an absolute prescription for failure. It teaches you sensible, balanced and healthy eating. You can eat anything, but not all the time and definitely in proportion to your overall diet. It empahsises healthy eating choices, balanced diet, and exercise. To me, it is the healthiest program you can find to learn to control your eating and stay healthy.

Olive: With Weight Watchers I like that I am leaning a healthy way to eat and exercise. It’s a nice thing i am doing for myself and so i am pretty happy with the experience overall.

Christen: Its really not that easy, though, I don’t think. I mean, i feel good about trying to eat healthy.

Pandora: I have to say I like the fact that i am eating healthier food with weight watchers but it seems a bit slow in my opinion.

Shannon: As far as edible appetite suppressants go, Hoodia Bites are chocolate flavored and sugar free! http://www.hoodiabites.com/mags/.

Isa: It’s been a good experience so far but for weight loss it does seem to be a long and slow process.

catherine: I am really like the looks of this program, they have options for pretty much everything. From cooking to frozen food and snacks.

Paris: VEry challenging for me at times, but I do like weight watchers. I like the fact that it encourages me to eat healthy and to exercise.

mary krause: oh boy i’ve tried every diet in the book, atkins, cabbage soup, master cleanse, plus a whole slew of diet pills tht just jacked me up on caffeine. i always saw weight watchers as this strange…cult or something, where women were just obsessed with counting their points. i didn’t get it. but some friends of mine swear by it now and since i learned they made some changes i’m interested in giving it a try. seems like lots of you are fairly pleased and thats encouraging. thanks.

stacia: WEight Watchers has gotten a lot more “do-able” now, since there’s an on-line program and also a Flex Plan that involves no points. So its not the way some of you might remember it with going to the meetings, counting points, etc. The good thing about weight watchers is it does evolve with the times. That is how it has lasted for so long, It’s not a “quick fix” but it can be a long term solution if you stay with it.

Dee: I can’t give Weight Watchers a thumbs down since my best friend lost almost 80 pounds on this plan – one of their real success stories, but for me it doesn’t work, which just proves that we are all different and there has got to be a product or program out there that will work for me eventually.

Char Q.: Is it “against the rules” of weight watchers to use diet pills, anyone know? I see some of you say they good & work, esp Hoodia, but I feel like,, isnt that cheating?

Rhanie: Here’s what I think. I tried Weight Watchers for a couple of months, only lost about 3 pounds and I ate celery and cucumbers until I thought I was going to throw up, and I just can’t eat this rabbity food all the time, I need a baked potato with sour cream, no questions asked, so I’m going to exercise 2 hours a day and see if that doesn’t get rid of this 25, Jillian Michaels says running is the best to lose weight, the cardio kicks up your metabolism, so that’s what I’m going to do, Can’t take this slow kind of torture diet.

TopFab: Can you do weight watchers without having to sign up for the program? I mean I can just do the recipes and exercise on my own and tell consider myself on weight watchers?

T.S.R.: I am learning a lot from the weight watchers online program, i really feel good about the whole experience and i do feel like i am loosing weight too.

lynn: yeah, i agree…i think weight watchers is not gonna help if you need to reach a certain goal very quickly. Its good for long term, but its not especially quick. I am looking around right now for something that could help me really “jump-start” the weight loss before i go on a cruise in early Dec., but so far I can’t decide. Any advce would be most welcome.

Dove: Weight Watchers is half the battle. I can take all their advice and wisdom to heart but if I am starving all day I will pig out. These are the facts. I need an appetite suppressant, that’s all there is to it.

Salty: I HATE the fat I have around my middle, do you think Weight Watchers will get rid of that or is it the kind stress fat we’re always hearing about? The Cortisol thing? Do you have to diet differently for that?

Brea: I was just telling my husband this morning that I was thinking about not eating at all for awhile since weight watchers is not giving me the result I want. He thought that I was being crazy but honestly that is what I am about to try. I know some of you have had better luck with taking supplements but it is just now what I am about, I want to look at myself in the mirror and tell myself “you did it girl!”

Lori Horine: Weight Watchers IS THE BEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

rush981: No one says you have to eat “rabbit food” on Weight WAtchers, Rhanie, they have plenty of good recipes and very satisfying meals. And by the way, plain non-fat yogurt is an excellent subsitute for sour cream without all the fat and calories. running is probably a great idea, anyway, my knees ache too much or i would take that up myself.

Tawyna: What about a good cleanse with Weight Watchers, so you can get it moving, if you catch my drift. I think I’m going to try that, otherwise, this is too slow for me.

BLAIR: Very good program, I am glad i got a chance to try it. I am confident that exercising and continuing eating right is the best way to go to stay healthy.

Tessa: Hahahaha on myself! I just rread Tawyna’s entry, and I thought it said “cheese” instead of “cleanse”! That’s about where I am with Weight Watchers…hungry! Know it’s a good plan, but something’s gotta give pretty soon.

Kristythomas2@yahoo.com: I am not a big fan of the meetings. It’s a good program but I felt like i was just fine on my own with my computer.

Janellle: Just want to say that the recipes are good and I appreciate having healthy food choices on Weight Watchers. Good plan.

Anonymous: Are we allowed to eat cheese on weight watchers?

lila: This wasn’t a plan for me, I don’t tend to like counting. I’m glad a got a chance to try it though, becasue now i know what its about.

Tania: I neither like it or don’t like it. So far, i noticed that all the choices are healthy so that’s a good thing. I feel like this diet can be very good for most people who need/want to loose weight.

MARK INGRAM: So far, i like Weight watchers Online (for men) and I think its gonna be good. Handy being able to track my progress from my iphone…probably wouldn’t work if i had to always be at home doing this but considering my schudles, this seem like it would work. It’s convenient.

Sammy: You can download an application for the iphone which allows you to keep watching your cal even when you are out. It’s pretty neat I think. So far, I like that and the sound of a few good recipes.

Suzanne: The diet seems very convenient. Some of the recipes i enjoy making some, not so much. The point system, i have mixed feeling about but it somehow makes sense. Overall I guess I believe that weight watchers is good program. I have even considered trying a Bodybugg has anyone else?

Unforgetable66: Its been around for so long, i am happy i have a chance to try it for the first time. So far, I don’t feel too hungry. I feel good.

shepherd: No weight loss just yet, but i like that the diet encourages a for healthier life style and that it seem to target everyone’s goals.

Victoria Gettys: Well, Weight Watchers is still around for a reason, I guess, but it seems pretty old fashioned to me, I mean we can all just eat right and exercise, but what’s the punch line? What’s the gimmick? That’s what I want to know to make me stick with this because so far I am not that impressed.

Wednesday: As far as speed, weight watchers does not seem to be a fast diet, that is what i am noticing at this point of trying it. Not a complain, just an observation.

CuriousGeorge: Whats the MOST anyone ever lost with Weight WAtchers? THe program and nothing else?

Miri: Weight Watchers seems good for maintenance.

Whitney: A bit overwhelmed by the point system, is how i feel at this stage. A lot of weight watchers sounds like it would be good though.

admin: The frozen meals do come in handy, I like that weight watchers a few options. I probably wouldn’t eat only those but like i said it come in handy when needed.

Tomeeka from Milwaukee: This programs work with motivation and determination. I decided to do the points system which helped me lose 35 pounds (over my 10% mark) within months. The meetings along with the points calculator helps you focus on your goal. When I was unable to attend the meetings due to a lack of transportion it caused me to start back on my bad habits. I let this hender cause me to loose focus on what was not only making me happy with the weight lose but what was making me healthy. Don’t give up like I did keep pressing on. I miss going to the meetings; our group was losing the most weight with our team leader, Connie.

Sheryl: Weight Watchers seems like a reliable weight loss program.

Marley: My opinion on it is that it is too long of a process to get results and i personally don’t like that.

gabriela: Weight watchers offers lots of support and the meals seem pretty healthy. I don’t see why it wouldn’t work.

Desiree: I have been on weight watchers for a month and a few pounds have sneaked up on me twice without me CHEATING. I don’t think this is for me if this is happening. What am i suppose to do to see a steady weight loss and not up and down off and on?

Francie: Weight Watchers is a great guideline for weight loss or just to maintain a healthy lifestyle. SO far i am learning a lot about what and how much to eat. It just sounds like a good one. It’s also cool that we are encourage to exercise

Catherine: I was successful using Weight Watchers 7 years ago – I lost 12 pounds in 3 months. But, I tried it again recently, and now, at age 50, it doesn’t seem to work. Only lost 2 pounds in about a month, and I was exercising, too. I think I need something to help with hormone imbalance before I’m going to loose weight, and since WW doesn’t help with that, it didn’t do it for me this time.

Pat: Always wanted to try weight watchers, I am happy i get a opportunity to do so. So far, I like all of the options i read about and the point system doesn’t sound complicated at all to me.

KymCarp: I did Weight Watchers back in 2005. It was the only diet that worked for me at the time. I could follow the plan, but the meetings were somewhat annoying. However, I lost 30 lbs in four months. I’m not sure if I was just more motivated back then or what, but I went back last year (had put a few pounds back on) and it wasn’t effective at all. Now I’m looking for something else…I hear South Beach is good.

Tiffany: I started Weight Watchers in August of 2007. I became a Lifetime Member in March of 2008. It has almost been a year and the weight is still off. At first, I was irritated by tracking points and started to feel obsessed…but then, I just learned what was what and weened myself off of such strict tracking because I just knew. It does take will power at first, but it is worth it!

stephanie: Having the possibility to do the whole program online is what i like the most of about weight watchers. I wouldn’t feel confortable at meetings i think. I don;t mind the point system but i like that they have other options. The other thing i like about it is that they offer frozen food, although a lot of the recipes don’t seem very complicated to make.

My-Ky: I am just beginning the Weight Watchers point system again. There was a helpful website that would assist with calculating points from well known resturant menus. Can anyone assist?

sara: I’m not doing a points program and I am really happy with the freedom it gives me. Nothing wrong with points, it just sound like extra work. Eating healthier and exercising feel like the right thing to do. I like it.

Anonymous: Weight watchers keeps on changing too often in an attempt to get you to keep coming. Many of the leaders lead you to believe that you can only be successful if you attend their class. Their products are expensive and contain a lot of artificial and chemical ingredients. I believe that a middle of the road approach is the only way to be able to not just lose but maintain. Relying on fat free and sugar free is not a lifestyle approach.

BETTYJ: I SIGNED UP FORWEIGHT WATCHERS ON LINE BUT HAVE NOT GOTTEN ANY INFORMATION TO GO ON. MY CREDIT CARD WAS ACCEPTED SO I AMGETTING CHARGED BUT NO INFORMATION.

Dianne: WW is a good program. My only problem is I have the monthly pass and am supposed to be able to use etools and can’t login and can’t seem to be able to find anyone to help me resolve this. I have a thread of 10 or more emails in the past couple of days. It is a little pricey.

Jackie: I’ve tried just about every diet, pill, and shake out there over the years and I have found that Weight Watchers is the only plan which consistently offers weight loss through a good sensible program. I am a compulsive eater and the Weight Watchers plan has taught me to recognize healthy choices and food choices. In reading some of the other comments, some have mentioned that the weight doesn’t come off quickly enough, but keep in mind that the weight didn’t go on overnight. If you truly follow the plan, you can expect an honest 2-4 lb. weight loss weekly. As in any weight loss program, you can’t just keep going on and off because you will only gain the weight back. WW is a life-long sensible plan – a lifestyle change. WW recommends eating ALL your points daily, but I don’t. If I’m full, I stop eating. I am completely happy with this program and the amount of loss I have achieved. The smarter foods you choose. If you are a compulsive eater, this is the solution.

gwen: I think weight watchers is a solid, diet program that’s only gotten better over the years.

Aph: Weight Watchers can work. Any diet can work, it all depends on the person working. If you do not commit to eating better and exercising then you will not see results. Don’t blame the plan blame the participant. We controll our outcomes when we try to lose weight.

Kathy: The HOodia bites are helping me to be content with smaller portions, which was tough to get used to at first. Overall I think that it is a nice program and so far I like the results.

Theresa: I just joined weight watchers about a little over a month ago I lost 7 lbs my goal is 45lbs to go I know weight watchers works I did it twenty years ago and I had a great leader she siad something to me there are no failures in weight watchers just quitters, so I say stick it out I once lost over 45lbs and maintained it for years, then I tried fad diets and was yo yoing no good weight watchers is for me I once met Jean Neidich and she signed one of her books for she is very funny I recommend anyone seriously interested in loosing weight to get a copy

Melanie: I did the Weight Watchers Flex Plan in 2004 and lost 48 lbs. in 4 months! It is not easy, but losing weight never really is. I gained back my weight and then some after a failed pregnancy and then a failed marriage. I just started again last week, and have already lost 7 lbs. This diet does not allow for cheaters! I am walking this time around, to help build muscle tone, last time I did not. I have never went to meetings, and I find them costly and I don’t have the time. You can do it on your own if you if the will power!!

Maggie: Weight watchers like any program requires a comitment. If you don’t create a balance between excerise and a healthly eating plan – you won’t lose the weight. Most people in meetings consider walking down the block their form of excerise and use excuses why they can’t workout. I have serious sports injuries and I have lost seventy pounds through ww and excersie. This plan makes you accountable – again it all comes down to you – get off your butt – take it step by step with diet and excerise. Focus on feeling stronger with your body and how your clothes fit! Don’t give up – hard work = success! If you are honest with yourself how you eat and effort in excerising you will see results – writing things down helps.

Stephanie: Weight Watchers is the BEST program for safe, consistent, long-term weight loss. Pills, potions, and wraps are short-term methods that generally end up with the user gaining back all of their weight, and then some, as I can tell you from first-hand experience and plenty of research. I’ve lost over 30 lbs with WW, and while it is not the fastest method out there, it is the only one that is sustainable for the long-term. Plans requiring purchased pre-portioned meals or multiple pills each day are great – as long as you can continue to buy the meals and pills for the rest of your life. As soon as you give up the pre-packaged foods and the pills, the pounds will return… and probably bring friends! Weight Watchers gives you the tools to maintain your goal weight without having to continue on the plan (or continue paying fees!) If you have a legitimate commitment to starting a healthy lifestyle and losing weight in the process, Weight Watchers is by far the best program available.

dianne: I have been a lifetime member of WW since around 1975 and I totally believe it is the healthiest and safest way to loose weight and in keeping it off. Last year (and it did take just about a full year) I lost around 75 lbs. but before I realized it I had gained about 35 lbs. back. Hopefully, I am back on track and will loose that plus about 25 more. It just comes back so very fast and I have to realize just because people are telling me I am getting too skinny, that is not the green light to start gorging myself. This is a choice of life.

Sarah: People on here seem to think that it should be easy to lose weight. It isn’t. Any type of accomplishment in life takes hard work and disapline. I imagine many of you have gone to college and completed degrees, work full time jobs, raise children, ecetera. These things also take time, dedication, and effort. Some people seem to think that they shouldn’t have to watch what they eat for the rest of their lives, that it is too much work. But if you are overweight, there is a reason, and aside from medical reasons it is usually from our own behaviors. These behaviors need to be modified in order to lose weight. It’s that simple. If you really want to lose weight, you will. If you don’t, you won’t.

Matthew: Definitely. Weight Watchers is a thumbs up!

*C*: Hi All! I am planning to begin my weight watchers journey tmrw and felt that this would be a great way to begin. I need motivation. I don’t have an extreme amount to lose but I am getting married in December, and Disney World in June, Beach in July and I would like to get in better shape. I would love to join the blog! ♥ *C* PS Im bad to not count points when i “pick” at food and I think this is my problem area!

Angie: I lost over 75 pounds on WW and kept it off until I was put on some medications that really messed me up. Now I’m back to square again, but determined to do it. I used the flex plan several years ago and I found that you will learn the points very quickly and you can add them in your head while making a meal. But make sure you jot them down in your book. I found traveling was not problem or fast food places, just learn to eat wisely. When you REALLY WANT TOO.. you will. You have to be at the point that you are going to do it no matter what. Good luck to all, and find a buddy….

john bucchi: my name is john. I have lost 161Lbs. with ww. I am one away from becoming lifetime member. congrates to my team leader michele eubanks out of algonquin ill.

Anonymous: How can I loss weight 246.6

Jean: Hi, I have a question…once you become a lifetime member what happens if you miss weighing in one month or if your weight is above your goal weight? Thanks.

jj4ever: Weight Watcher’s is the best program out there. Compared to others it is also the cheapest. If you follow the plan you WILL see results. Adding variety to your diet is the way to go. I’ve lost 50+ pounds at age 59 and have never felt better. The best part is, I saw a weight loss at every weigh in. I thank my Heavenly Father and Weight Watcher’s for that!

Davis: I am thinking about joining the WW program. I take metformin for PCOS, does anyone know if the WW program works well with metformin or does it mess with your blood sugar like the other “diet” I’ve tried?

LostinTX: I lost 26 lbs on WW last year. Tried to get back on plan this year to lose the last 10 & was simply too hungry to stick with it…upped my daily points by 1 or 2 & didn’t lose weight! What’s up?

Maura: What i notice is that is hard to get over the cravings, its really tough to be on such a claorie-restricted diet. But overall, I like the Weight watchers, because it is a more balanced diet than most. I guess hoodia would NOT be a bad idea.

Jen: I have been doing WW for 3 months and have lost 20 lbs. It is a good program, but if you lack in commmitment to it and dedication it is easy to get side tracked. The days that I truly follow the plan and what they recommend eating (filling foods, lean meats) and I learned what works for me, then am not hungry, but if I don’t do it, then I am.

erin cook: Weight watchers sounds like a pretty good program IF you can follow it. I can see how it would be easy to get side tracked though. But again, I so far feel like all the element are given for success will check it out. BTW, Sensa is another system I am considering.

kroshto: I lost 20 pounds on Weight Watchers, but quit counting points around the holidays and gained it all back plus some.

Jaimee, Chicago: Yeah, if you want it to work, you gotta stick with it, for sure. I always do well with Weight Watchers too, WHEN I’m ON IT! Its those periods of just, laziness I guess, is what i’d call it for myself, that I start to gain some weight back. Am thinking aobut maybe an appetite supressant too, or something, bcs it does get annoying to have to pay attention to everything i put in my mouth.

BeaByrd: I’ve been dieting what feels like all my life and I started weight watchers several times. I love the program but I honestly feel that anything will work if you will stick to it. I go to weight watchers for the meetings and accountability….I started 2 years ago and I have lost a total of 155lbs. I still have some weight to lose but I have come a long way with the help of this program.

Robin: FOR EVERYONE FOLLOWING WEIGHT WATCHERS BUT LOSING SLOWLY OR NOT LOSING AT ALL…..TRY WEIGHT WATCHERS WENDIE PLAN. IT WORKS!!! YOU LOSE ABOUT 3 POUNDS A WEEK AND IT IS WEIGHT WATCHERS, JUST TWEAKED A LITTLE BIT. GOOGLE IT!!

Caryn: So far it does not seem so hard to get used to it. I like all the tools from the website, it sure ain’t my mother’s diet these days. I am pleased so far.

Susan: I joined Weight Watcher’s and lost weight. After Hurricane Ivan I suffered some health issues and gained weight again because I had to depend on other people to take care of me. When I went back to Weight Watcher’s to lose the weight, they were horribly cold, indifferent and made me know I was not wanted back. If you gain the weight back, which most people do because it is so restrictive, they won’t help you get back on track.

Jenna: Getting the updates & recipes sounds pretty neat. I also like to set goals for myself to reach and keep myself accountable. So for me the at-home online plans options may be what works best.

Evelyn: I SUBSCRIBED ON LINE 8-31-09 AND DECIDED TO CANCEL 9-1-09 SO I COULD ATTEND LOCAL CLASSES IN PERSON. I HAD PAID $65.00 FIR THE THREE MONTH PLUS ONE FREE MONTH PLUS SIGN UP FEE. I WILL SUPPOSEDLY RECEOVE A $18.10 REFUND. A BIT TOO EXPENSIVE FOR MY TASTE FOR 24 HOURS OF SERVICE. I WILL PROBABLY LOSS WEIGHT DUE TO A NAUSEOUS STOMACH FROM BEING RIPPED OFF. ENJOY WEIGHT WATCHERS,BUT WATCH YOUR WALLET.

Jenny: I have being with Weight Watchers for some time now, but not making much progress any tips?? Pleas send me an email

charlotte: hi ii am new can anybody help

Tiff: used to think this program was such a pain, before i got a chance to try it. i do think that all of hte options and information they have online, makes weight watchers a lot easier to handle nowadays. it’s not a quick fix, but hopefuly a long-term one.

zz: Weight watchers make so much sense to me, i’m really excited to try it.

betty sue: It feels like it going to take a while to see results but eating healthier portions is somehow already making me feel good.

HOLLY: Counting is not my favorite part of weight watchers but it does make sense.

nessa: WW is great, it works, you have to change ur life style. but it’s hard to loose the last 10

Suze: I understand why one would get something like Hoodia bites or Nuphedrine while doing weight watchers, as I feel the hunger even when I’m not on a diet!!!

richard c.: I feel like if i were to do the diet with a friend or someone close, it would be easier. It sounds like a nice program some of the recipes i found online were quite delicious.

g: Had a bad time on this program. Too tough for me. Food should be enjoyed. Moderation is the key. What happens when you run out of points and you are hungry? I found it all very stressful. I guess it’s like anything out there: one size doesn’t fit all!

Kay Z: FOund the BEST recipe for stuffed potatoes on teh Weight watchers website! Super easy to make & actually quite filing, perfec for fall. And..only 6 points!

wendy: I joined weight watchers 6 months ago, I have already lost my 5%weight and Im now working on losing 10% of my body fat. I love the meetings and I need to have someone weigh me and to see their face light up when i loose, it makes me feel so good. WW is working slowly and surely for me.

Colleen: Ok guys I am having a hard time with the people that are saying this program is too hard. This it a life style change not a diet. It follows all the guide line for a healthy life. 2 dairy products 5 servings of fruits and vegetables and 2 tsp of healthy oils. I snack all day and still stay in my points range. I eat my daily requirements but still have yummy stuff. Popcorn, chips, chocolate, ice cream. Not all in one day but I pick and choose wisely what to have each day. Guys this is about being healthy and feeling good about ourselves not about what program is going to let us be couch potatoes and eat chips all day. Its not easy but it is life and if we want to keep it we have to work on it. I have been doing this program for over seven years now in between 3 children. There is no better way to live!

LISA: I have been a weight watchers lifetime member since march 2008. I joined back in sept 2007. I lost 22 lbs. and have kept it off since. To me it is the best food plan because you can eat whatever you want to eat. The plan gives you 35 extra points a week to splurge. If you are counting points. This is not a diet….

daryl maritt: I am a life-time member of WW. If it were not for this program, I would not be at a healthy weight to this day. It IS NOT a diet. It is a life style change. WW teaches you the correct portion size, better choices, and most of all healthy thought process about food overall. It is a wonderful program for anyone who is willing to commit and want to change their unhealthy life style for a healthy one and be successful at it forever. You can eat most anything you want following the WW program, you simply must use good judgement. It will not happen over night,or in a couple of months. It is a slow, steady, and healthy weight loss process that does work. People that are serious about weight loss will stop fooling themselves and learn what real portion control is, how to cook healthier, and start moveing more. There is no other way to live better and happier.
