Default How has WW's helped you so far?

Hi there, I'm waiting for my Package to come and am wondering how much of a change you have noticed in yourself since starting on the WW program?.

Weight wise.. health wise?

I've gotten to goal and stayed there.
I feel better and my lab work from doctor shows it.

I am far from goal but I am a smaller, healthier person. I have learned a lot about proper portion sizes, healthy fats and oils and what are good carbs, etc. I have learned how important regular exercise is to your daily regimen and actually miss it when I don't get a chance to work it into my day. My feet and knees are thanking me for losing weight and don't ache and complain like before. My BP and bloodwork are all within normal limits (actually they were anyway when I first started out, but I'm sure it wouldn't have always been this way if I'd stayed at the weight I was or even gone higher).

I am happier than I have been in a long time, WW is a plan that works in REAL LIFE. No buying pre-packaged foods that you are limited to, no vitamin packs or mandatory meal replacement bars, etc. They teach you how to eat real food, in real situations and to me, that's real life.

I take more pride in my appearance now that I can buy smaller, more stylish clothes instead of the plus-sized garish matronly garb that they sell in a lot of stores.

Well, I'm on my third week and I've lost 7.8 lbs so far. Today I fit in my non-stretchy jeans! My butt hasn't seen those in a while!

I really like the fact that I'm eating real food and not "Weight Watcher's Only" food. I can institute a Weight Watcher's item into my diet if I want to (and sometimes it's convenient to do that) but I'm learning proper portion size and low-fat cooking techniques with regular food items.

Good luck!!
