I did weight watchers a long time ago when there were meetings and everything. I was very into it. I did lose quite a bit of weight at that time. You have to really stick to it. Don’t cheat and it’ll help. I stopped after I felt like I had incorporated much of what I learned into every day. Snacking on healthier items, smaller portions, skip having seconds and see if your actually hungry or not, and usually your not if you wait for a bit! I have an aunt and uncle who needed to lose weight by doctors orders and my aunt went in with full gusto and has lost maybe 35/40 lbs this year and has completely changed her life. The biggest things is not drinking. (You can of course still drink but chose low point options and limit them) I think if you struggle with weight and are really ready for a change and can be dedicated to following the rules, it’s great. I would watch out about falling into a trap of too many processed “0 fat/calorie” foods. They have other stuff in them that’s not great for you, so try not to just go replacing treats with other treats that are super processed. It really can change your relationship with food. You’ll like like find yourself cooking and eating at home more though!

Thank you! I have heard of that book but never got a chance to read it. Appreciate your time! ❤️

I did the app a few years ago… I recommend it, particularly if you need to reset your eating habits. Helps remind you that you can still enjoy food in moderation.

I hope my father dies before my mom. Otherwise he’d consider it my duty to drop my life & move home to cook & clean for him, like my mother does. My mom works full time but is expected to take care of all things in the house, as well as do the accounting for my father’s business. He’s helpless without her, & is a sexist asshole. (IE my mom sprained her wrist and has carpel tunnel but she’s still expected to wash his dishes and he refuses to just buy a dishwasher). Please God, let him die first.
