    Hi friends,

    Did any one of you try to lose weight by joining weight watchers. Im planning to join weight watchers online and try to control my food portions. Doing diet on my own is not taking me long. I need a certain kind of check on my food and have some progress trackers.

    Does weight watchers help for Indian kind of food. Pls share your experiences if any of you has tried.

    thanks.

    Hi
    Here in UK most of the Indian community follow Slimmingworld to weightwatchers as it has more freedom to eat most of common indian dishes. All the best with your diet plan.:thumbsup

    Hi achutty,

    Thanks for the reply. I didnt know theres another weight loss group called slimming world like weight watchers. You said majority indians follow this in UK. Can you let me know in general how do/others who followed this program go about. I mean can you tell what would be sample indian diet look like? I need some inputs before investing in any online weight loss group.

    Thanks

    Hi As86,

    I didnt join any group but lost weight through regular exercise and portion control. I lost all the weight put on during pregnancy and have been maintaining it for more than 4 years now.

    Nimmi,

    Yes I do remember you dear. Shiva featured my success story in her blog. Do check it out. There is no big secret about my weight loss. I followed what suited me on my own terms and conditions. I tried every form of exercise and I was amazed to see results. I tried portion control. I cooked everything at home from scratch.Eating healthy food is half journey won. Stop buying junk and you will end up eating fruits and nuts.
