Weight Watchers Weight Loss

I recently reached my goal weight and switched to the Weight Watchers Maintenance Program. I’ve thought about this a lot while continuing to do my best to follow the program and wondered what it’s like that I’ve lost almost 33 pounds in 8 months. So I decided to write my top 10 strategies. I’ll make them Dave Letterman style

list. Top 10 Weight Watchers Weight Loss Strategies That Have Worked For Me 10. I make sure to have lots of 1 and 2 point treats around the house. I work at home and have learned that I like to snack and nibble during the day, so having low-point treats available is important so I don’t feel guilty. 9. I let other people (my friends, family, and co-workers) know what I’m working on so that they can support me and give me praise when I’m successful. 8. I share mine

Achievements and challenges in a blog (http://www:Mayhealrhylifestyle.com). This has been a great outlet for me to focus on what I need to keep doing, reading and thinking to stay on track. 7. I use Weight Watchers Online e-tools. I’m a fan of details so the online program is great for me. I work at home and sit in front of the computer all day. It is no problem for me to add my food to the online points tracker immediately. I also log my weight every Saturday after my weekly Weight Watchers meeting. I get an immediate visual representation of what I’m doing by looking at the diagram. 6. I make sure to attend the weekly Weight Watchers meetings. I think in 8 months I’ve only missed two because I was out of town on business and couldn’t come to a meeting. However, if I know I won’t be in town, I usually go at least the day before and weigh myself. 5. I weigh and measure my food. I quickly learned that what my eye takes for 2 ounces is usually much more. I’m not consistent, but most of the time I weigh or measure what I eat and drink. 4. I track my points. I write down what I eat. I hear Flora saying in my head, “You bite it, you write it.” I’ve learned that if I write everything down this week, I’m either not losing weight or gaining it. Again, my eyes are not good

judge for quantity. 3. I train 4 times a week. Before Weight Watchers, I took Pilates classes 3 times a week. Although I got stronger, I didn’t lose any weight. In fact, I gained weight due to hormones, sedentary work, and overeating. I switched to 2 days of Pilates and 2 days of cardio. I started cardio the same day I joined Weight Watchers and I know it has made a huge difference. Last week I even started walking to my Pilates studio since it’s only a 10 minute walk. So far I’ve ridden, if you can believe that. 2. I have a buddy. My dear friend and I joined Weight Watchers together and also went to the gym together. We go to meetings together. We
