Weight Watchers Weight-loss Techniques: My Top 10 Picks

Recently I hit my goal weight and moved to the Weight Watchers Maintenance Program. I’ve been thinking about it a lot as I continue to do my best to follow the program, and wondering how it is I was able to lose almost 33 pounds in 8 months. So, I decided to write down my Top 10 Techniques. I’ll arrange them Dave Letterman style.

Top 10 Weight Watchers Weight Loss Techniques That Worked for Me

10. I ensure to have lots of 1 and 2 point treats in the house. I work at home and I’ve learned that I like to snack and nibble during the day so it is crucial to have low point treats accessible so I do not feel guilty.

9. I let other individuals know (my pals, family and colleagues) what I’m working on to allow them to support me and give me kudos when I succeed.

8. I share my success and challenges on a blog (http://www.slim-people.com). This has been a great outlet for me to focus myself on what I will need to keep performing, reading and thinking about so that you can stay on track.

7. I use the Weight Watchers online etools. I’m a nut for details so the on-line program is excellent for me. I work at home and sit in front of a personal computer all day. It’s no dilemma for me to add my food right away to the on-line points tracker. I also enter my weight every single Saturday after my weekly Weight Watchers meeting. I get an immediate visual representation of how I’m going as I view the graph.

6. I attend the weekly Weight Watchers meetings without fail. I think in 8 months I’ve only missed two because of being out of town on business and unable to get to a meeting. Though, when I know I’m going to be out of town, I will typically at the very least go the day prior to and weigh in.

5. I weigh and measure my food. I learned swiftly that what my eye thinks is 2 ounces generally can be a lot far more. I’m not consistent about this but much more frequently than not I do weigh or measure what I’m eating and drinking.

4. I track my points. I write down what I eat. I hear Flora in my head saying, “You bite it, you write it.” I’ve learned that when I slack off from writing everything down, I either do not lose or I gain weight that week. Again, my eyes aren’t a great judge of quantity.

3. I work out 4 times per week. Prior to Weight Watchers I took Pilates classes 3 times per week. Though I was obtaining stronger, I was not losing weight. In reality I was gaining weight on account of hormones, a sedentary job and consuming too much. I switched to 2 days of Pilates and 2 days of cardio workout. I started the cardio workout the same day I joined Weight Watchers and I know it has make a big difference. Last week I even began walking to my Pilates studio since it’s only a 10 minute walk. Up until now I’ve been driving, should you can believe that.

2. I have a buddy. My dear friend and I joined Weight Watchers together, as well as joined the gym together. We go to the meetings together. We work out 2 times per week together. We talk about food and how we’re doing all the time. We evangelize about Weight Watchers. Without my buddy I do not think I would have stayed with the program. No, I know I would not have stayed with the program.

1. And number one. I made the choice to join Weight Watchers. I had heard plenty of success stories about Weight Watchers and after putting on 30 pounds over the course of 3 years, I decided it was time to take action. I had been telling myself it was age and hormones that contributed to the weight gain and that may be partly true, but I had to take action and do something so I could feel great about myself, my body and my health.

That’s it. You can find most likely more things that could possibly be added to this list. Now my challenge goal would be to maintain for 6 weeks and get to Lifetime Member.

Oh, I just remembered one more thing I did. I read an write-up, I believe on Weight Watchers On-line, about rewarding your self when you do well. So I set up a savings account and deposited $10 every single time I lost a pound. I call it the “Pamper Me” account. Now, I will add $10 each and every week I maintain my weight. Then, eventually, I’ll do something fantastic to pamper myself!

Good luck and best wishes to you as part of your journey to weight loss!
