I have a question -- I had started to go to WW meetings back in March but did not continue them. I have the first couple weeks' books and the Companions (Dining Out and the Complete Food Companion). I have a TON of WW cookbooks from past attempts at losing weight. I've been in a little slump in straight calorie-counting over the holidays, and I know that when I do the WW program, I lose weight. Now, I can't afford right now to do the program and pay for it (via WW at Home, WW Online, or meetings) until I get my car's transmission fixed (it's currently in the shop until I can come up with $2400 to get it done). However, since I have the basic info (points, sliders, etc.) I know I can do it at home without putting out more money that I don't have right now.
My question is -- if I have questions or am having problems or don't know something, can I ask here? For example, let's say I'm confused about the Core plan since I've been doing the Flex plan. Would it be a violation to ask for come advice / clarifications, or is that okay? Would I still be welcome to participate in discussions and such even if I'm not a paying member of WW, or is it frowned upon? I really hope it's okay, since the support here at 3FC helps out tremendously in general -- being able to discuss a specific plan seems like it would be even more helpful since I can't get to meetings.
I also considered trying the Sonoma Diet, but again, can't afford the book right now.
