It should: If you follow the plan, attend the meetings, it should work. An average weight loss might be a pound a week, so be patient and don't be discouraged. Try to eat the power foods they suggest like vegetables, it will help you feel full and satisfy your hunger.

Usually: No diet program works for everyone but weightwatcher has a good record. However without regular exercise (including weight-training), the chances for you to maintain long-term weight loss is not good even if you had great success initially. One cannot diet forever.
