I just joined up for Weight Watchers online this Friday and though I have done the old points system before this is my first go at it online. My schedule makes it so that I cannot attend either of the meetings in our area ( rural area makes it so there is only two meetings during the week within a 20 mile radius) so online I went. The site is cool and interesting though I am thrown off by the new points system. I am having a problem eating up to my points as I am a breast feeding mother as well. Should I eat more? Does this system actually work? Has anyone lost weight on it yet? Or using the online system without going to meetings?

My mom used to do this and she lost 35 pounds. With this new system, a friend of mine just raves about it. I'm not sure I understand it all. But she's lost 15 pounds in 4 weeks. I've read a lot of independent research about which losing weight plan is most successfful long term. And Weight Watchers was the most successful. Have you ever heard of Ginnifer Goodwin? She made a buzz last month for admitting she has been on Weight Watchers for years. That isn't relevant, but it surprised me that Hollywood made such a big deal out of it. She is very pretty, not too thin, but definitely fit.
