    I have doing weight watchers for about 2 years now. I have dropped from 67lbs total and have maintained a 10lb difference for about a year. In that time however I have quit smoking and have exchanged a great amount of fat for muscle, and over all health.

    In contrary to what people say is that diets do work, because losing weight is easy. Eat less calories than you burn, however maintaining weight loss and preventing health problems is difficult. I know a number of people who have gone on various diets, atkins, fat burners, etc. They always always gain it back plus more, because they usually have very little muscle mass to begin with and by dieting they break down their muscle tissue further.

    As for my experience, I had a lot of weight to shed, I was also in very bad shape and had horrible eating habits. By excercising i was able to fight off depression and build my esteem, and by using weight watchers I was able to watch my portion control and drop some pounds...

    ...it's an ongoing process.
