Hello! I have been a lifetime member for a long time. I around 20lbs. over goal. I am in the process of getting a hold of my lifetime# so I can take advantage of the meetings. I have not been to a meeting in over 10 years. The boards here offer a lot of great support. I will need to come up to speed with all the changes. I did buy the recipie books by th Duchess as well as "Reinventing Yourself With The Duchess Of York". As soon as I get my life time number I will head back to get up to speed with things.

Hi sadiegirl and welcome. There have been many changes to the WW program over the years; I expect you'll find the current one easy to live with.

I am a lifetime member who re-committed to the program in the summer of 1999 and lost 25 lbs., getting back to my official goal weight in December 1999. I've been able to maintain (+ or - a few pounds) ever since, and these boards and this thread in particular have been instrumental in helping me to do that.

Hope you'll find some inspiration here.

Hi sadiegirl and Welcome! I'm also a lifer and came back both to meetings and to this thread in a big way to lose the 10 pounds over official goal I had gained back. I love checking in (almost) daily with the online journal and know that this and the various threads on Lif/Maintce have kept me clear and brought me back to goal.

We'd love to hear your progress and look forward to connecting.

Thanks for the reply. Havving these boards to network on do help. I am at the point in my life where I do not want weight to be an issue. I know maintaining weight is work for the rest of my life. Eating right is much easier than being overweight ad miserable.
I know there have been many great changes to the program over the years. I hear all the great comments about how easy it is to live with. WW's Center is down right now so there is a delay in retrieving my lifetime number. I hope to get it over the next month sometime.
Thanks for the welcome!
