Alright, so someone I know really well (I can’t give out her name) has been doing weight watchers ™ for the past 3 weeks.
Okay, if you’ve read much of what I say and/or know a little about weight watchers ™, You might be able to guess what I’m about to tell you next.
Last night was her week 3 progress report/weigh in.
Week 1: 4.4 pounds lost
Week 2: 4.6 pounds lost
Week 3: 0.6 pounds lost
4 pounds per week for 2 weeks and then BLAM-O.. nothing, nada, zilch! Well, okay, 0.6 pounds. Big WHOOP.
So, if you know anything about weight watchers, then you know that they follow a points system. Meaning you can eat whatever you want as long as you don’t go over the number of points you’re allotted per day, okay?
Aight, here’s what happened after the week 2 weigh in.
She lost like 9 pounds, right, so based on her new weight her daily points were decreased by 2. Not a lot.
I’m not hatin’ on weight watchers, but this is a classic case of why diets fail miserably and why they can’t be sustained long term.
So, what happens if she keeps losing more and more weight? Does that mean that eventually she won’t be able to eat anything at all? I mean, she lost 9 pounds and she’s being punished by having food taken away from her..
Bullshit if you ask me.
So here’s why it matters to you
The first person that can correctly tell me WHY she stopped losing weight (or why it went from avging 4 lbs per week to 0.6 lbs per week) will win a FREE 15 minute phone consultation with me to help you get on target.
Here’s what you need to do:
Scroll down to the comments section below and leave a comment. Tell me WHY you think she only lost 0.6 pounds last week when nothing changed in her activity levels and her daily food consumption was cut by roughly 50-100 calories per day.
And if you want to AVOID hitting a wall in your fat loss after just 3 weeks (unlike my friend), then you need to go here (no ifs, ands, or butts about it).
I guarantee you won’t stop losing Fat until you’re READY to stop losing Fat if you follow the step-by-step system as it’s laid out.
Aight, I’m out until next time.. and don’t forget to leave your comment and win a free consultation.

She lost water weight the first 2 weeks. The .06 might have actually been fat she lost.
