WW online - 3 Fat Chicks on a Diet Weight Loss Community

kimmy275 · 09-22-2003, 11:45 PM

Hi all! I'm new here and am thinking of going on WW. I am probably going to do WW online as it is the most financially feesible for me right now. I just wanted to get some feedback from anyone who might have done the online program. I don't quite get if all the information is online, points, etc or if they send you stuff in the mail, like books and stuff. I would like to know before I sign up and spend the money if anyone likes it.

Thanks,
Kim

Kim,

I'm currently doing the program on-line. You will get all the information you need on-line as well as some handy tools such as food and points calculators and an on-line journal - all the things you would get via hardcopy at meetings or in the At Home package. I started out by purchasing the WW At Home package several years ago (where they send you the books, etc.) and just recently joined on-line. I would recommend on-line. I really liked it. I started doing it when WW started the Flex Points program so I would have all the up-to-date info and it has really helped me stay on program. It is especially nice for tracking points - takes all the work out of it. Please feel free to join us in the Weigh in at home thread. By the way, where in IL are you? I'm in the northwest suburbs of Chicago.

Thanks alot for your input! I plan on signing up Friday after I get paid!

I'm in Lincoln, its about 30 mi from Springfield and about 3 1/2 hours from Chicago.

What town do you live in? I have friends in Westmont and an online friend in Bolingbrook.

Small world huh?

Kim,

I live in Barrington. But I grew up in Joliet, which is near Bolingbrook.

Congrats on making the decision to join.

Hi
I am new here, but I do ww online. I belong to the Canadian site. Everything is online, you get menus, it keeps track of your weight loss, it has a journal. The only thing you do not get is the personal meetings. I perfer on line. I fell off the wagon while on holidays for the summer and have had a hard time getting back on track. I am starting again tomorrow.
