I told the Weight Watchers counselor that I want to be Lifetime. I'm not sure I understand this program, but she said for me to pick a weight that I would like to be at. I picked one that I have felt comfortable with in the past few years. Then she said that I have to reach that goal and then stay there for six weeks before I can become lifetime. Is that true? With my TOM, I know I won't stay there for six weeks (I gain 3 pounds every period and then lose it again). Now I'm beginning to wonder if I picked the wrong goal.

Help, you wise and knowledgeable lifetimers.

You have to be within 2 pounds either way of your goal at the end of the 6 weeks to achieve lifetime. If you happen to be at that point in your cycle where you're up 3 #, then the following week when you are down 3# again, you will have hit lifetime. Good luck and congratulations!!!!

Grazie, Signora. I think you're the one who writes Italian sometimes. For some reason, the Lifetime thing is confusing.

Prego (actually, the Italianista is lala). Hey, staying at lifetime goal weight is, well not confusing, but challenging!
