Is Weight Watchers A Good Diet Plan?

I am 30 pounds overweight and thinking of joining Weight Watcher's. What is your professional opinion of this diet program and why?  Linda N.

Dear Linda,

I have a very high opinion of the Weight Watcher's program.  It's a realistic way of weight loss because they teach you how to eat in real life--you can cook your own meals, purchase ready to eat meals from the grocery store, or eat out wherever you like.  They teach you to be aware of what you eat and what your portions are.

Many people also appreciate the accountability that is built in by showing up every week and weighing in.  During your meeting you get information and support, as well as rewards for weight loss, which can be very motivating.

This diet, more than any other, is one you can stay on for life. And that's important. Because when you go off a diet, you gain back the weight.

If you are finally read to change your lifestyle, your eating habits, and your activity level, instead of trying another diet for a few weeks to get the weight off for now, this is one of the best ways to go!

You can also choose to join either online or in person, whichever suites you best.

Second to having your own personal diet coach, I think it's one of the best plans out there!

  2. I think weight watchers is a great diet plan . But as with everything you gotta keep to it . People blame the diet not working , but wont admit to following it. You always need to exercise with any diet plan you enter . There are no quick fix's
