Anyone utilize weight watchers ? Are you happy with this ? Considering it

I did weight watchers a long time ago and it worked pretty well, but it still led to me restricting and binging a bit so I backed off. Now I track calories on My Fitness Pal, but I really focus mostly on protein and fiber. I've noticed that working *towards* a goal (like getting 130g protein everyday) is much more effective than just trying to avoid bad foods. but I think out of all of the popular diets of the last 20 years, weight watchers seems like one of the most healthy!

Ty! I should try the fitness pal too!

I have considered weight watchers but I am worried that I will be wasting my money because I feel like it would be all too easy to cheat on this type of diet. I need something I can be held to, because my self control is shockingly horrible and I will probably do well all day come home stressed out and ruining all of my progress. But if you have fairly decent willpower weight watchers might be a great program for you. Good luck!

Dyslexia! After having our kindergartener son tested (privately) related to ADHD, we were told he may have dyslexia too (which would explain why he struggles so much with phonics but is amazing at sight words). He has a very high IQ. As a voracious reader, I am finding myself unexpectedly distraught that something that I have loved so much will be such a struggle for him, and worrying that it will affect his motivation and may steer him away from things he may otherwise love.

I don’t want things to go “back to normal,” and lately I’ve been reading what feels like a lot of disingenuous arguments for reopening “for people’s mental health.” As someone who was suffering from the way things were before and is now thriving from the slowdown (both in work and personal life), I wish we could all stop pretending like we were living in some mental health utopia before the shut down.

(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.

One constantly is under threat of having land annexed by Israel, but it isn't the one in the peace agreement, and Netanyahu has already said this agreement doesn't alter plans
