I’m planning on joinging weight watchers online, and wanted to know what your experiences were with the online system. I’m a pretty disciplined person, and will not slack off just because I won’t have to face others at meetings…but seems like online would be a lot more convenient for me as I am a full time college student and employeed.
Please share your success stories, and/or any advice regarding weight watchers online…and last but not least. With the weight watchers online, are you mailed a “points booklet” or is everything completely online?
Thank you so much for all of your help!

I haven’t done it online, but I go to the meetings.
1As long as you are motivated enough to do it without the meetings, I’d give it a go.

I just joined Weight Watchers. They are selling a book for points for restaurants, and a general points book. I didn’t get it for free—I bought the starter kit and got the books and a three month journal. Perhaps you can go to the nearest one and get the books.

I did it online last year. I ended up purchasing the books the previous post is talking about. Along with that, I bought a calculator to figure points out. It got expensive for me after a while, so I only was a member for 7 months. Now I just use the book and calculator and do fine. I wasn’t aiming to loose a bunch of weight, but a few pounds and then maintain. Really, it helps you develope better eating habits.
The think I miss about doing weight watchers online is a page that let you put in all of the ingredients of a recipe, how many servings it made, and then it would calculate how many points per serving.
My mother-in-law was a weight watchers leader, so I also was able to get some stuff from her. I totally recommed trying it online. I was also a full-time college student and worked full-time when I joined, so it would have been very hard to go to a meeting.
If you decide to do it, I do suggest buying the points books and calculator (i think they were about 45 or 50$) b/c if you choose to cancel membership online, you can still look up point values – just not online!
