You do you! Find what works- change every month if you have to! I for one will always be watching!
Honey bunny!!! Thank you! I will always be watching you!!!
I love your videos. I have lost and gained weight on WW and it is always successful when my mind is totally in the game. Right now I’m not so much in the game. I tend to loose my motivation after a while. At 77 years old, I’m more concerned about my health than being the perfect weight. You have to do you and be happy with where you are. I’ll still be watching your videos.
Thank you Gale! Wishing you health and happiness is 2024!!!
I applaud your decisions! You need to do what is right for you. Life is short and do what makes YOU happy. You are doing fantastic and just stick with it. Have a wonderful new year and looking forward to all of your vlogs no matter what they include...just love your sweet and kind personality :)
Trisha, thank you so much! I appreciate your support so much. I need the positivity, and this really helps, thank you!
Everyone needs to change things up. Too easy to just glide thru. Do what makes you feel good and motivates you. I will still be watching.
Thank you Beth! So far, I am happy with my decision, feels more "real" to track calories.
Great video! I totally understand where you are coming from. You gotta do what you feel is best for you. I’ve been a WW member since 1988, and made Lifetime in that same year which I’ve kept off and on. Over the years I’ve gone through several different WW plans. I can remember when the meetings were full…and there was so much enthusiasm. It was fun to see the new products. For me, WW began its downward trend when they got rid of in person meetings for much of the country as well as the changing of programs every 2-3 years. I live out in the country…for the last 20 years my closest meeting was 30 miles away. I would also use that day to do my grocery shopping. This past March, when that meeting was shut down, there were about 20 of us who wanted to stay together. So now, we meet weekly at a member’s church. We have our same leader and receptionist who weighs those who want to weigh in. Of course, we don’t call our group WW, but we share our successes and challenges as well as recipes. Some of us still follow WW, while others are doing a different weight loss program and others just come for the support. Each of us pay $5.00 a month which goes to our leader and co-leader for their gas money. It has been a very successful arrangement.
Sorry for this long post. I wish you much success for the new year! I enjoy your videos! Stay warm!
Denese, thank you so much for sharing this with me. What an incredible journey you have been on. I LOVE that you all stayed together and made your own group! Donating towards the leader's gas money is fabulous! I agree with everything you said. My first meeting was back in 1997, those were the days!!! Take care and thank you!
You do you boo !! As you say this is your channel and you can do what you like. If people don't like it then they can just move on. You can't make everyone happy every time. We all get bored with our plans and need to reinvent things to keep us interested. ❤
Well said Margaret!!! I appreciate it!
Good for you! We need to do what works for us!
Thank you Nicki! I appreciate you!
You do you, Danielle! I feel that I am not eating enough on WW. I have had a Lose It lifetime membership for many years. Good luck on your new journey with Lose It.
I had a subscriber state in the comments that she was coming short on calories on WW. I always wondered about that. I see myself pacing myself better with this app, spacing out food. So happy you are having good luck with the app!
I was a WW member for years. I was successful in losing over 100 pounds. I was basically losing weight on the "blue plan". When they changed the WW plan to the Personal Points Plan, I stalled out on losing weight. That plan did not work for me no matter what changes I made. I felt like I wasted the entire year. My weight would go up a few pounds, then I would lose a couple of pounds, and that continued. I got so discouraged with the plan that I went back on the Blue plan. I did start losing some weight again, then I reached the point where I went into "diet fatigue". I was just tired of thinking about food all the time, tired of eating the same things over and over. I've gained back weight over the past six months. Right now I'm counting calories, lowering my carbs a bit and increasing my protein. I'm hoping I can get in the groove again and the pounds start coming off. I really want to reach my goal weight. I, too, am very disappointed in the WW program. It's not anything like the original WW program. When they started closing workshops, discontinuing selling WW products and getting into the Ozempic market, I completely dissolved myself from them. I really needed the WW community, and that's why I attended the workshops. Now it looks like eventually there won't be any more workshops, so no more community. A year from now, I wonder what will be left of WW. It's a shame, and I understand your feelings about WW.
Hi Pat, I am always so happy for you that you lost over 100 pounds on Weight Watchers. I also did not like the Personal points plan and I totally understand the diet fatigue. It’s definitely important to take breaks from it. Seems like eating a little bit. Lower carb is really helpful to a lot of people. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for this update. I’m also using the Lose It app so I can see how my macros compare to points on WW. I appreciate your honesty and am excited for your new adventure with tracking calories. ❤
Great, wishing you wonderful success!!!
Wishing you all the best for your new journey! I will still be watching and cheering you on all the way. ❤
Thank you Claire! I appreciate it, here for you too!!!
I know what you mean. I do find the meetings help me but just found out my leader is leaving at the end of the month
The meetings are wonderful as I know you love them as well. I am sorry about your leader leaving. I hope you get a really nice one. Keep me posted. I am here to cheer you on.💕
I also need to refocus on my night snacking & give my self an exact time to stop in the evening( especially as i am watching TV.) Thank you for sharing. ❤️
For real. I stayed upstairs in my room last night and did not go downstair after 8pm to snack, lol!!!
Ive always enjoyed lose it but recently started ww. I have 30 more pounds to lose. Tfs with us. You can do it!! ❤🎉
That is great! I am here to cheer you on💕
Girl I am the Queen of changing plans so I totally get it
Good luck on calories!
Hey lady! So proud of you! You are doing great! You are a success story!
@@daniellenichole2696 you're too sweet ❤️
I love your chatty videos so I will always watch no matter what plan you're on. I don't follow a plan myself but I eat low carb, low fat and sugar free - it really works for me.Xx
Ps I'm always worrying or over thinking about something - I drive myself insane 😅
Hi Janice. All those things, sugar, fat and carb, that's a great thing to eat lower on! So glad you found something that works for you! Yes, I know what you mean about over thinking. Worrying about things that will probably never happen. I was doing that last night and then also worrying about telling all of you I was changing plans AGAIN, lol! Deep breaths, diversion and making a to do list can help.
@@daniellenichole2696 lol there's always something to worry about even when there isn't 😁❤️
Love watching your channel . I don't care what diet you do I am going to watch your channel.
Hi Frances, your positive support is so helpful. I've been in a funk and needed to make a change. Thank you very much! Have a great rest of your weekend!
Sounds like you have a good plan in place. You have to do what’s best for you. It’s your journey. Good luck and keep posting!! 😊
Thank you Donna! I will keep posting, thank you for support! Happy New Year to you!
Happy New Year
I agree with you on meetings. I’m very lucky in my area we have several WW in person meetings locally. The one I attend is 6 minutes from my house. I feel very fortunate as in person is what keeps me accountable. Saddens me that they have cut so many in person put. Again you go girl! Excited for you.
Nikki, I’m so glad you have a meeting so close to you that is fantastic.
I don’t blame you , the points system isn’t working for me anymore either! I’m happy your going to try something else 😊
Thank you for your support. Do you know what you want to try next?
I think I’m going to try the lose it up . Just calorie counting.
Hope it goes well for you. I’m WW and fighting for my life! The lose it app sounds fun with emojis 😊
I am here to support you!!!
Do what is best for you. I was up 2 pounds. Back to basics. Looking forward to see what is new on your channel
Thank you Cindy!! Best wishes to you in the new year!
Tracking is time consuming, but necessary. I count calories. It works for me as long as I track. Do what works for you. Good luck with your journey in 2024.
Hi Val! I never knew you were tracking calories. Do you use a certain app on your phone? I am learning a lot about my macros and really need to hone in on my nutrition. This has been such a learning experience for me. Thank you so much for your support.
I used myfitnesspal for a long time, but currently I just use a journal. @@daniellenichole2696
Yep, sometimes we just have to shake things up and try something different. Interested to see what you think of calorie counting, I've never been able to stick to it but now that I have an app that has detailed macros,etc,it might be fun to try. Good luck!
I have a hard time sticking with anything! I will keep you posted on my progress. I just realized that I was snacking at night, it's past 8 and I am staying away from the kitchen, lol! Have a good rest of your weekend!
Sorry that I keep commenting😂😂
One thing I do ti be healthier, is making sure that I eat at least two servings of fruit and one serving of veggies a day. Without WW I can go back to eating poorly
That is great advice
Love your honesty! I’m a WW Lifetime member and have been using the Lose It app with great success for almost 2 years now. The best to you in 2024!
Thank you! That makes me so happy to hear. I've enjoyed the first 3 days on it. Best of luck to you too!!
I have gone back to the healthy app and I'm doing conquer cravings again and I'm really getting motivated to keep going with I have lost 3 and 1/2 lbs since starting. I like the freedom of that plan. Good luck with what you're doing with counting calories.
Conquer Cravings is my FAV WW program! 3.5 pounds is wonderful, I am very proud of you! That plan is forgiving with carbs, which is super helpful!
Danielle, I totally agree with everyone else! Do what’s right for you! I think you look great! The 10 pounds you took off obviously helped. Your face is slimmer & you seem to have more energy. It doesn’t matter to me what you follow, I will always continue to watch you. I love your content & you are such a sweet, kind person. I really enjoy your videos. Good luck & I’ll be watching for your next video!
Thank you Lynn!!! I appreciate you!!
Boy do I getcha!! You have to do what excites you. I do calories and macros. I've been off of ww a long time. I'm post menopausal (long time). To lose weight for me takes an act of God. After 5 months of weighing, measuring etc. I lost 9#. SO long story..... the doc suggested Ozempic (which I have been totally against). But it's working. I'm still doing 1000 cal a day. So we'll see. Good luck I'm sure shaking it up will help
Hi Judy! Do you use a particular app to count calories? I like being back on this plan. I'm down 1.6 pounds as of this morning, but I'm only doing weigh in videos 1-2 x a month, so I'm not stressed out. I am so glad that you are doing well with Ozempic. I do agree that change is good and shaking it up can be helpful! Good for you Judy!!!
@@daniellenichole2696 I'm using Healthi. And setting it for Cal and macros
Everyone has to do what is best for themselves
Thank you Rose. You have been so supportive all these years. I appreciate it!
Good luck with counting calories!!! We all need a change occasionally. Whatever works for you ❤
We sure do, thank you Brenda for your support! I appreciate you!
I am with you regarding being bored with WW as well. I think I am just going to use my fitness pal for now. Keep up the videos though if it fits with your life! I enjoy them!
Hi! Yes, so glad I am not the only one that is bored. I've heard great things about that app. Much cheaper than WW too! I will keep the videos coming, thank you!
I lost interest when meetings in my area in March 2020 went away. No way can I drive 90+ one way to a meeting. I just couldn’t feel a connection with virtual meetings.
That is way too far to drive. The good old WW is gone and it's sad!
Good for you! Do what works for you. It helps to switch things up. We humans get bored easily.😂
Thank you Debbie!!! We sure do get bored easily. I have been putting off making a change and made the decision yesterday. Have a wonderful rest of your weekend!
You have to do what you want. I use lose it app too.
Thank you Ruth! It's a great app!!!
Maybe I should try calorie counting too. I'm almost 50 and I've been thinking about life a lot too. I relate to everything you said!
Hi Bee- I know you have been on the Momentum program for a long time (my favorite WW program). You can try the free version of Lose it or My Fitness Pal and if you like it you can upgrade. It was $20 to upgrade to premium for me (has the scanner then), let me know if you try it and how you like it! We are in the same boat!
My Fitness Pal works!
Is that what you use? My kids use that from time to time and love it.
@@daniellenichole2696 I use it with the WW Ap. I am lifetime at goal.
I double track with Lose It for calories. Eye opening 😊
Hi Roberta! Have you found that you are not eating enough calories on WW? I have always wondered about that. I never double tracked to check that. Feel free to share your findings for others in the comments if you have time! Thank you!
@@daniellenichole2696 There are Many days that I'm way over in points and under in decent calories. I'm almost 79 and not very active. I got back to Lifetime goal at the beginning of November and I really want to stay there.
I'm behind you.. I've been thinking about leaving ww..my deal went away and back up to $45 a month..meetings are different..no more of the leaders that helped me and in my area there is just a few leaders and none excite me..plus no more products..no incentiives..no bravo stickers and you got a charm for losing 10%of your weight..no more.. I do my fitness pal but I might look into lose it
I agree with all the above, No more "Weight Watcher's Stuff!" I love buying those over priced products, lol! It made it fun to by something. No more points to win those prizes you could pick out. It's such a bummer. I am so glad you like My Fitness Pal, another subscriber in these comments uses it and likes it. I didn't look into that one, just jumped into Lose it years ago when my doctor recommended it. Keep me posted on how you are doing!
I’ve been double tracking on weight watchers and lose it. It doesn’t seem I get enough calories on WW. So I started doing diabetic plan. I get app free as I’m lifetime member. I haven’t updated lose it app in awhile so I went undated it and offered me lifetime for 59.99. I think I’m going join you and count calories rest month.
I never double tracked and always wondered. Thank you for sharing that. Congrats on being lifetime on WW. Lifetime for $59.99 is a great deal. Keep me posted on how you like it.
I’ve been feeling the same way about WW. Not throwing any shade on them, it becomes tiresome to work so hard and to see the repeating pattern of up .4, down .2! I have even wondered as of late if WW works that way on purpose. So many people experience that pattern and it certainly does keep a lot of us paying our WW bill every month. I have taken a mental health break from dieting and it has been good in so many ways. The Lose It! app is really user-friendly and fun. I wish you the best of luck with it. I am going to try the balanced plate approach, a lot of fresh fruits and vegetables and protein. We’ll see how that goes, but I think everyone has the right to change it up when it begins to feel like old hat.I will follow your channel in any case. Good luck with calorie counting!
I'm wondering if we were undereating on WW? I felt like I was either under or over eating on that plan, never really knew where I was with calories because I didn't double track. Balanced plate sounds fantastic, gets you away from all of this tracking (which is tiresome), but still gives you some parameters! Happy New Year!
I’m just hoping the balanced plate approach will encourage me to eat healthy whole foods without all the diet mentality. Whatever plan we use, our good health is worth the effort! I’m cheering you on!
Another question, how much are you trying to lose per week, in the settings? And are you getting the extra calories from exercising? Thank you! I’m so excited that you are doing this!
I have it set so far to lose 1 pound per week I may change that up but that’s what I’m starting with. I am not sure on the extra calories for exercising. I have to look into that I can’t remember how to check that. Do you do lose it?
Yes. I love the Lose it! App.
Danielle, may I ask why you prefer lose it app over Healthi app ?
I think they are both excellent apps, but I prefer the Lose It! app. I find it to be a little bit more user-friendly and fun to use.
Thank you Danielle
Can I please join you? What day do you weigh in?
I weigh in regularly throughout the week. I’m not sure which day will be my final weigh in for when I film it but I will definitely let you guys know at least once a month how I’m doing.
@@daniellenichole2696 that’s right. Good for you. Sometimes the scale is to much pressure
I feel like you always go back to ww but it never works for you long term.
I would agree with you💕
