I think i'd be a bit suspicious if my scales at home read 30 pounds lighter than the ones at WW.

What if they rig the scales you always use at the meets? How do you know which are rigged and which aren't? If you fear they might be rigged cant you just say, well actually i'd like to try those other ones to see if they read any better? And if they read different surely they'd have alot of explaining to do?

Do people speak up about these concerns or are they afraid of the people who organise these groups?

There are two sets of scales, you line up and choose whichever scales ya want to be weighed on, i have only ever put on half a pound since joining, people only say they are rigged when they probably have put weight on, due to probably picking and not realising you have gone over on ya points.
if you stick to your diet you WILL lose weight....simple.....its nowt to do with scales being tampered with, as i said before when i weigh myself just before a meeting, they read the same as the ones at Weightwatchers...explain that one.......no you cant:rolleyes:
and before someone says why would you weigh yourself at home and then at WW and pay....well i do it for the motivation thats what the meeting is about, and the fact that someone is keeping an eye on your weight and you would feel a right div if you did put weight on:o.

any more questions:rolleyes:

I dont quite understand how it works. Do you stop using the point system once you have reached your target weight or do you have to stick to it to stay at the weight? Or do you just eat healthily?

panther 03-01-2008 18:25

Re: Worried going back to slimming world......... :>(
 
just eat healthy, its up to you I suppose, if you go back to your old eating habits then naturally you will put on weight.
once you have reached your target weight you become a goldmember, free membership for life as long as you stay within 4lb of your target weight.
