Good for her!
Weight Watchers is an AWESOME program...and a great one if you are going non-surgical route!!!

About 10yrs ago I lost 120#'s on WW....and it was fairly painless...just a lot of patience...and a mind-set of self control...and a great support system! Loved the WW support boards too!!
I just wish I would've done the "inner work" at that time....I think because I was never willing to go deeper in my mind and heart about what got me to being obese in the first place.
