weight watchers?

in Babies: 0 - 3 Months

Im a lifetime member, but havent done the program for a while. I joined a gym and love getting a good sweat, but my eating is out of control!  Im eating my second PBJ sandwitch right now!

Has anyone tried WW while nursing? DS is 6 weeks, I have about 10 lbs to go from my pre-preggo weight, but would really like to lose a total of 20.

 TIA!

    I am in the SAME exact boat as you. I am nursing and my appetite is WAY out of control..I am eating more now than when I was pregnant!

    Curious to see what others say about WW...

    Lurking from 6-9 months - I did WW online for about 4 months while BFing and lost 20lbs. When you register online one of the questions they ask is are you nursing and they give you a ridiculous amount of points! They gave me 40 points a day-I was like you with wanting to eat all the time but most days it was still difficult to use all those points (especially with fruits being zero pts now). I actually checked it the other way too and if I wasn't nursing they would have only given me 28 pts a day and it was an EXTREMELY rare occasion that I even touched the weekly bonus points-there was one night DH and I decided to really indulge and we had steaks on the grill with steak fries and brownies...the two of us ate the ENTIRE tray of brownies that night! lol! Good Luck!

    I've been doing WW since LO was 8 weeks. It's been going great. You can eat heaps of food, like pp said, and I've had no issues with supply.

    Plus I find it really easy to manage on a day to day basis.

    Since starting WW I've lost around 22 lbs.

    I did WW pre-marriage and it went great!  Lost 40lbs!  This time I started when I was BF and have since stopped BFing so I now have 28 pts instead of 35!  And honestly, even though I am not BFing I am still hungry all the time - I think I'm eating to keep my body fueled when I'm low on sleep = having trouble sticking to the points values and not losing weight yet.  Thank God for Zumba or I'd be in big trouble (12 extra points for 1 hour zumba)!  I know this program works, I just gotta get better at sticking to it!

    Anyways, just wanted to pop in and say hi and good luck!

    I just started on Saturday and have found it easy so far.  In my case I bf and supplement, so I get 33 points a day.  My eating was out of control so I needed something to get me back on track.  GL!

    Thanks everyone. I joined, and I get 40 points a day, plus the 49 weekly points!! If I can't stick to that, then I'm in trouble! Thanks for the encouragement. :)
