All a learning process right?

But being how frustrated you were with WW, I definitely think that trying something different is a good idea. For me ProPoints is working really well right now, and as long as it continues to work this well, I'll keep following it. Looking forward to following your progress off WW.

Right now I've been counting calories since the end of July. This week I've had two days of not counting and rely on myself and I did fine. Today I'm counting again, can't be trusted on the weekend :) I didn’t want to follow the WW program anymore too. Right now I’ve been counting calories since the end of July.

Keep us updated how it works! As I mentioned before I did WW few years back and that didn't really work for me either it certainly made me think about what foods I was eating and it really helped motivate me to keep a balanced diet, but that was it, it was all about the food and not really much focus on the exercise. What is silly is someone who is running 5km a night needs a completely different diet to someone who does a light aerobics workout 2-3 times a week. Unfortunately WW isn't that sophisticated. Good luck with the next course of action, I think you'll find it will help! :O) Yes I think this is the best decision for you at the moment.

Keep us updated how it works!

Must be all the stress, and there is some evidence to back up how stress prevents weight loss. Last week I relaxed how I counted at dinnertime and I lost 5 pounds! I find that trying to count every damn point at dinner makes it hard for me to just start cooking healthy food at home, which usually has me relying more on pre-packaged foods and stuff, which must be counter-productive. So I tried eating reasonable portions of a main dish and eating lots of veggies on the side, and that actually seemed to work. Still counting all day though. I think it could be fun to try some of this with you! Yes, I think they say that to women TTC as well. Must be all the stress, and there is some evidence to back up how stress prevents weight loss.

WW does not have a program for those of us who are very active. WW DOES work, I do not deny that, but it's just not working for me anymore. exactly! it doesn’t work and it makes me miserable!

Maybe not worrying about it all will help the pounds melt away. I haven't always believed that but now I think that might actually be true. It sounds like this is really what you need right now.
