Weight Watchers?

[jrsygal37]

Hi all. I'm new to the forum. I found this site on Yorkie Talk where I'm a member. I was wondering if anyone here is doing Weight Watchers? I've started the point system. I'm also using Alli as well as Liprodrene. Elaine

Hi Elaine, Welcome


I have been on WW in the past and always did well on it. A few of our friends on here are on WW now.. Janet and Judy, and are doing very well. If you scroll down you will see their threads. I don't know anything about the two pills that you mentioned , they are diet pills? If so I don't believe in taking them... WW along with exercise should do the job.. Good luck!

Welcome Elaine! Love the WW! I've been cheating all week, but I'll get back to it.

I think I've about reached my goal. I wouldn't mind 2-3 more pounds.

Check out Janet's WW thread. She's doing beautifully!

I've lost 28 lbs since 1/3/08 doing WW's. I've kind of slacked off here lately and I should, I still have about 75 lbs to go. So much easier for me in the winter time. In the summer I don't take time out for meals, busy outside..etc.. so by the time I eat, I'm starved.

I don't know anything about the Alli or Libpodrene, can you tell me about them? Just curious, I never rule anything out till I know what it is...LOL.

Hi Janet. Congrats on your weight loss. Do you follow the point plan or the flex? I don't know much about the flex. I know what you mean about being starved. My two boys play travel ball and by the time we get home I am starving. In so far as Alli and Liprodrene goes... Well, Alli is a type of fat burner from what I believe. It was exenadrine or something like that and it had been sold only by prescription but is now available on the market. What it does is blocks the fats. People say it gives you the you know whats and leaking etc. but I have not found that. I think it only happens if you were to eat a very fatty meal such as a big mac or something. What I do find is right after I eat I have to run to the bathroom. Liprodrene curbs your appetite and it gives you an energy boost. It has ephedra in it. I know that that is controversy and a lot of people feel it's dangerous but I've been fine with it but it's not for everyone. Anyway, you've certainly inspired me with your weight loss and I hope I can do as well with my diet. Elaine

WW's is a very good program and I love going to the meetings. I've been thinking about quitting ONLY because it costs so much every month. The meetings are great for the support so I don't know yet what I'm going to do.

I don't think either of the two things you explained are something I'm really interested in. I think I'll just stick to the WW for now....LOL. I was doing soooo good, so I need to get back on task and get this 75 lbs off that I have left. Oh I almost forgot...I am on the points plan...I love it!

Hi again Janet. Yeah, I don't do the meetings either. I was a size 6 runner and had a bad accident 14 yrs. ago. It left me in a lift chair for almost a year. After I healed I joined WW (That was 11 yrs. ago) and I did the meetings faithfully and took off the 30 lbs. I put on. I kept it off all these years until recently and I'm starting to put weight back on so I just started on my own with the points again. As far as the Liprodrene and Alli. I NEVER reccomend it to anyone. I don't think any of these weight loss drugs are good for you, but taking it was a personal choice I made but never reccomend anyone else to take it. It's kind of like the don't do as I do - do as I say (As I tell my boys. LOL). I think if you know the program and maybe buddy up with someone to weigh in with weekly you probably won't need the meetings. I wasn't really into the meetings but they kept me honest. I think it was more of the shame of having someone see I gained weight that week. LOL. THEY HAVE GOTTEN VERY EXPENSIVE THOUGH.

I googled Alli because a lot of people are on it. There are a couple of lists of the 10 best diet supplements. They don't have the same 10 best, but some f these products really work! One supplement is only for women, and brings your mood up and increases the sex drive (if you want to). Another was also very good for lots of other things, like wrinkles and ??? and was a good weight loss supplement.

There was another 10 best, but I can't find the website.
