I did Weight Watchers, and I lost about 5 pounds a month. At that rate, you would lose the weight in about 4 months. Everyone is different though. Some lost it faster, some more slowly.

It's okay to use weight watchers, but it is not necessary. NOW is the time to get educated and learn for yourself. Read about nutrition and healthly living. Many such books will give you planned menus that are just as effective, if not more effective (and much less expensive) than Weight Watchers. Do as these other people say, and make sure you exercise. Walking is great for you!!!! As is swimming, because it works almost the entire body. Do not forget to stretch before and after your workout. 20 pounds will come off in no time - or a few months. The first month, it will be fine if you drop 10 pounds, you may slow down a bit after that, but it will come off - just eat right and exercise. Drink as much water as you can - at least 64 ounces for a non-mobile person and MUCH MORE as you exercise or increase your physical activity
You don't want to be stuck on weight watchers for the rest of your life, which is why I tell you to get educated - this is about making a lifestyle change, not just doing a crash diet! : )
Good luck and take care!!!!

Weight watchers is one of the best in regards to long term weight loss. Women typically lose 1-2 pounds a week and men 2-3 pounds a week because they have more muscle mass that requires more energy. Hang in there and if you screw up a day or two, get right back on. I'd say about 8-10 weeks and the weight will be off which is the easy part. Keeping it off is what is difficult for most.Keep going. You will succeed.

Hi,
I am not so sure about weight watchers...
I specialize in helping people lose weight quickly and healthily and i myself lost 15kg within 2 mths via a detox.
I have also helped people lose a total of 500kg in the past few years via detox.
And the detox is simple. All you need to do is three things.
Number one, follow the detox programme which requires you to change your diet a little bit. Eg, take more vege and less meat and seafoods.
Number two, use 1 minute a day to take some natural health foods that I take to enhance the speed and the effect of the detox.
Number three, drink lots of water to flush the toxins out..
And that's it.
The rest is up to you.
So what do you think? ;)
If you are keen, you can email me at verityy@yahoo.com.

When I started Weight Watchers, I lost about 4 lbs. per week. However...I had over 100 to lose. I'm now down to .5 to 1 lb. per week and have lost 92 lbs in 12 mos. WW recommends losing no more than 2 lb per week. If you lose too fast, it will all just come back. Keep with the program, change your eating habits and the weight will just come off.

I'm not sure about the weight watchers thing, but it's unhealthy to lose more than about 3 pounds a week.

Eat half your usual meals. Balance your weekly diet with vegetables, fruit, fish, chicken, beef.
Walk for ten minutes before and after your meal. Exercise ten push ups, ten sit ups, ten squat kicks, ten jumping jacks, that is almost complete body workout I used three times a week. Chin ups are optional.
Power climb the stairs, and don't add midday, midnight, or any in between snacks to your habits. Drink six 6 ounce glasses of water a day. And drink two 6 ounce glasses of water for each cup of coffee or caffeinated drinks. Minimize your caffeine intake to the mornings to no more then 3 cups or two soda's. before midday.
No more after two in the afternoon.
I had a hospital tested instant, I was 246 when I started and in three weeks I was 175 lbs.
I did run the entire course I walked at the end of my trial system. Without training for running.

I've lost 5 kilos in my first week. It's my 10th day and I have included salad with some protein (eg. egg/ lean chicken) as you suggested. After 4 years of trying, the fat is finally coming off. It truly feels like magic!
Get started today!
