Anyone out there doing Weight Watchers with the band? I have had it with this band and not losing a pound. Had to have an unfill last week cause I could not get water down. So I am filled. Still not losing a thing. Just wondered if anyone out there is on WW and how it is working for you?

Ask me as many as you want, I'll be as honest and truthful as I can.

I am a weird and different type of bandster. I can pretty much eat anything and never PB. I've PB'd 3 times in the 2+ years I've had my band, once on a piece of bread (hamburger), once on a french fry, and another time on a Starbucks frozen drink. Not sure what that was about, but it got stuck - lol. So to answer you question about slider foods, I don't tend to go for slider foods with Weight Watchers or without. I try and eat my Protein first.

My issue is my sweet tooth. I love my sweets, always have, always will. So, with weight watchers, I can still have some sweets (every now and then), but it teaches me my portion control.

Like tonight, I have already got planned to have a cookie and cream Weight Watchers Ice cream bar. It's two points, and I have included it with my meal plan.

Prior to Weight Watchers, I would have just had a Braums ice cream, or something like that, or Cookies or brownies when I had the sweet tooth.

So I hope I am not rambling on too much, but to answer your question in short - lol - No, I don't have a problem with slider foods now that I joined weight watchers. I tend to eat more processed food, which I am working on trying to prepare more foods this week.

I am trying to eat less sodium and try and prepare fresh chicken breast, talapia, etc vs. the frozen WW meals (they and all other frozen meals contain a lot of sodium, which makes me retain a lot fluids).

Do I believe Weight Watchers is for everyone, NO. Do I like Weight Watchers, Yes. It was the right choice for me at this time in my life and at this stage of my journey with the band.

Thanks for all the info. Much appreciated!

I just started ww last week as my weight loss has stalled, sadly. Banded 4/08 & have lost 40lbs, need 2 lose 15more and nothing. 1st year just cut down on portion sizes, now having to completely revamp all food & amts to get results. Dont mind ww just hate exercise, but will do. Whatever it takes, I guess
