It's helpful in the way that any calorie and exercise tracker is helpful, in my opinion. If you want the support and camaraderie, it's fine. I have found I have success when I track my food intake and exercise and tend to put on weight when I don't.
I guess my problem is I’ve never had to worry about my weight or food intake before so I need to be educated on what’s actually healthy for me. I am also not sure how to track things or what to track.
@mybabybear, work out. Even if you aren’t able to go to the gym, you can find a park or a trail to get your heart rate up and burn calories that way. Weight watchers doesn’t work, especially if you aren’t taking care of your health and body.
