René is no stranger to waiting. While she was working toward her weight goal and Lifetime Membership with Weight Watchers Meetings, it became pretty clear pretty fast that her weight loss would be slow.

She worked toward her goal for a year and two months, losing less than one pound per week, on average, the entire time. Her determination paid off, though, because she did meet her goal. Then she gained some of the weight back. This time, it's coming off even more slowly.

René, who now subscribes to Weight Watchers eTools in addition to going to Meetings, isn't fazed. She's simply had to come to terms with the fact that she loses weight slowly. "If I allow it to be discouraging, it will," she says. "But I refuse to give up. Whenever I feel like I might, I ask myself if I'm willing to live with the alternative to slow weight loss, which would be regaining all that I lost, and possibly more.

"That gets me back on track every time," she says.
