I am 5Ə" and a little over 200 pounds, 21 years old. For most of my youth 13-19, I grew up with my dad forcing me to exercise with him and do the atkins diet on and off. Throughout this period of yo-yo dieting, my weight gradually increased from about 140 to 180. I just got married in January and my husband says he wants me to lose weight but that he is not going to be invasive the way my father was. After 8 months of marriage and several little attempts at dieting, I am now up to around 210.
I have finally decided for myself that I need to lose weight. My husband says he is willing to pay for any weight loss program I want. My question is: What weight loss programs have any of you tried? Weight Watchers? Nutrisystem. etc? What are the pros and cons? How effective are they? Did you gain any weight back afterwards?
Thank you so much!! I really need some advice!
Please help!
I live in southern California.

My sister has been losing a TON of weight on Weight Watchers. She barely exercises, but she keeps an eye on her portions and makes healthier choices now. She doesn't follow the points exactly, but she does use what she learned with the point system to figure out what and how much she should be eating. Give it a shot!
