[quote=Anonymous]20:54 here.  Just want to add:  Weight Watchers works.  I don't totally buy in to their philosophy, so I take what works for me and leave what doesn't.  For example, I think "weight" is a crude measure of "health" and know, for example, that if I drink a glass of water my weight is going up a pound.  Or if I had a salty meal, my weight can go up as much as 7 pounds from the water retention, not fat.

But WW works and studies show it's really quite effective.  I know it works with me.  I'm not exactly sure why, but I suspect it's the accountability.  It's easier to stay a particular weight when you are accountable to "the meeting" than if just accountable to yourself.  That being said, no one ever knows your weight at WW except the person who records it, and she is trained to be discrete.  Still…having that little paper log and computer log, wow…it keeps me on track.

Also, you may think you don't have time for one 1/2 hour meeting a week, but I think it's precisely what happens to you psychologically when you force yourself to make the time that affects you, that keeps you in line.

So something to think about, OP, and a prior PP, now that you are there.  Anything to help you hold the line![/quote]
