    Ronnie ... I just joined WW. How are you doing now? Do you recommend?
    Were you able to maintain your reduced weight? And also were you able
    to bring up the website?

    Thanks,
    Rakesh

    Yes, its a lot different than what I used to eat earlier, sometimes

    And since I eat mostly Indian meals (home cooked), I am developing my
    own website with sort of low-carb Indian recipes, it should be up in
    about 15 days, will let you guys know.

    And I do exercise 3 times a week (30 minute yoga) to keep myself fit.
    A little discipline is required though...

    You are always at risk. Weight loss will never be permanent
    w/o a life change.

    Boy do I love this Weight Watchers thing. I just joined last week.
    I've tried the Atkins and South Beach before this, which are
    great....for about a week.

    WW seems to be the most realistic. So far I'm really enjoying filling
    my pantry with more wholesome foods and cereals. And the planning
    ahead makes me look for more interesting gourmet recipes, and trying
    new things.

    I've almost totally cut out booze, and if I do have a cocktail, I'm
    good about counting it against my points.

    I do 3 miles on the treadmill every morning, which gives me 4 extra
    point to work with.

    I have a new appreciation of food and of preparing good meals.

    My goal is 40 pounds, although that would be "high school" weight, so
    30 may be more realistic.

    Hardest thing: my wife is pregnant. 🙂

    We did the point system with WW last year and will go back soon. We've
    been on "hiatus"for a few months! <G> One tip we followed that eliminated
    most of the tedium of choosing foods from the pantry, fridge, or freezer,
    was to mark every can, box, bag, etc., with the number of points per
    serving as soon as we got home from the store. It made grabbing something
    off the shelf simple and painless.

    Another great idea is to divide some fresh veggies into baggies.
    A nice mixture of carrots, jicama, snap peas, red and green bell
    peppers, grape tomatoes etc... in one bag makes a nice snack when on
    the go.
    Make several ahead of time so all you have to do is grab a bag on your
    way out the door and you have a nice 0 point snack.
