I'll probably be doing Weight Watchers also. I've done it in the past (3 times in the last 10 years). It worked well for me when I stuck to the meetings (I've made lifetime twice), but I always put the weight back on when I stopped going. First time (when DS was 18mo) I got down to my healthy high school weight and it seemed so easy. Since then it has gotten progressively harder to drop the weight and I gain it back almost immediately (and then some).
I have to dig my books back out from my first visit to WW. I think my point range was 25-27 a day or something like that. I never did well with the flex points, too easy for me to get off track. So I'm going to stick with the old fashioned plan. Seemed to work well way back when.
Dsis and I are going to try to get back to the track this week as well. When we stick with it, we walk about 45 minutes and probably go a couple miles. Not going to be fun as hot/humid as it's been lately, but she'll get me there.
My biggest problem is midday. I'm a day care provider and for about two and a half hours (from noon to 2 or so - nap) I have to stay pretty quiet and still so the kids will sleep. I have a bad tendency to graze the entire time. So, if anyone wants to meet me for lunch and keep me on track I would greatly appreciate it!!
