4. This is why I dropped out of WW so many times, at or very close to goal weight

Their focus on the scale drives me wild. If I did everything "on program" and gained a pound anyway (period coming or whatev!!) they would be so condesceding "have a better week next time." It got to the point that I was starving myself all day before evening weigh ins.

Inevitably I would get so frustrated I would throw the whole diet thing out and wake up in 6 months of "freestyle" eating with 20 lobs right back on. I admit it is a stupid reaction to my scale frustration but that is what happened -- 3 times!

There is no WW magic. All it is, is portion control. I got a little annoyed paying $13 a week (prob more nowadays) to face the "scale nazis" and their judgmental attitude!
