should I go to weight watchers?

Hi everyone. has anyone joined weight watchers after getting sleeved? I feel like joining to get a weekly weigh in plus I kinda like the recognition they give when you lose weight. I don't get any support by my surgeon or his office, they do not offer any support groups or nutritionist . is it a bad idea or go for it? any input would be great

OK the group leader walked up to me when I was in line to weigh in and sign up and asked me if I were a life timer LOL!

I said nope. They didn't ask about wls so I didn't say, I know they frown on that so yeah.

SO according to their chart I need to lose 4 lbs to get to goal, according to my own personal chart I need to lose 14 lbs. I can do this, I will do this.

Need to stop some real bad habits and start back to the good ones!

Best wishes everyone!

Weight Watchers is the bomb! I joined 12 years ago and successfully lost 109 lbs and made Lifetime. Unfortunately, I stopped going to meetings and did not keep it off... I gained it all back plus some. I've thought of rejoining for the weekly support (I'm 3 months post-op). I love the atmosphere and energy of the meetings in my area. Though, a LOT of people in the WW community have a negative stigma towards wls. I do not recommend being forthcoming with that info.

We started WW at work program. I went until the week before my surgery. It is what helped me to lose Pre-op! I will return soon. I'm glad it was mentioned they don't like theirs of WLS. I was not going to mention it anyway at work!

I loved what they said at today's meeting...
