  • Win a 3-month Membership to Weight Watchers and Lose Weight!

    Posted on April 29th, 2009 fromthemom 130 comments

    Weight Watchers just launched the Momentum Walk-It Challenge, and to celebrate, they’ve given me two 3-month memberships to give away on my blog!

    These memberships can be used for Weight Watchers in-person meetings or for Weight Watchers online. Meeting attendance costs $12 per week, plus the one-time registration fee unless you join during a free registration period. And the online membership costs about $65 for three months. So, these 3-month memberships are pretty valuable. Plus, you can get healthier and thinner and learn new/better eating habits, etc. etc. So, they’re actually priceless.

    I’m a huge believer in the Weight Watchers program and I’ve written about that here and here and here. I lost all my baby weight on the Weight Watchers program and trained for my first marathon while also attending  meetings and learning to eat better. I’m  a lifetime Weight Watchers member, which means I attend meetings for free as long as I stay within 2 pounds of my goal weight. Unfortunately, I waned in my commitment over the last few months and I’m no longer within that range.  But that’s okay. I went back to my meeting today and re-committed myself to the program and to meeting attendance. I plan to be “free” again within two weeks. (There, it’s in writing).

    I also signed up for the Momentum Walk-It Challenge (I’m a runner, so I’ll be “running” it) and I created a Walk-It Challenge team. That’s because my DH is joining Weight Watchers, too, and will be doing the challenge with me. We’re going to train for a 5K together sometime in the next eight weeks. I haven’t chosen our 5K event yet, but when I do, I’ll be writing about that, as well as my progress and my DH’s progress in the Walk-It Challenge training, here.

    The Momentum Walk-It Challenge encourages all Weight Watchers meetings members and Weight Watchers Online subscribers to get active this spring. Between April 12 and June 6, set an activity goal for yourself — like walking 5 kilometers (3.1 miles) — and Weight Watchers will give you access to the tools you need to get there. Join or create a walking team, or sign up for a 5K event and you can get a FREE 8-week online training program to help reach your goal. (I downloaded my free 8-week online training program and it is very cool and fun to use). So, if you win one of my free memberships, you’ll want to consider signing up for this challenge.

    Now, onto the contest:  I’m giving away one 3-month Weight Watchers membership between now and May 8 and one between May 9 and May 15. To enter the first contest, all you have to do is post a comment below about why you want to win the membership and you’ll be entered into the drawing. Be sure to include your email address in the post so that I can contact you if you’re the winner. The contest deadline is 11:59 p.m. May 8. The winner will have three days to respond to my email or the prize will go to someone else.

    For additional entries:

    • Subscribe to this blog in a reader or via email (see the buttons in the upper right sidebar). Be sure to post an additional comment that you did this.
    • Tweet about this contest, and again, post an additional comment with the link to your tweet.
    • Blog about this contest, and post an additional comment with the link to your blog post.

    Good luck.

    1. Michelle, Help!!
      I weigh more than ever before. I feel sluggish and like a blimp. I now weigh quite a bit more than my sister, who is kindly referred to in our family (and by herself) as Fat Pat. I never thought I’d see this day.

    2. I would like to loose all my baby fat even though it is 17 years old.

    3. I want to win because I need some motivation to lose weight…..pretty desperately.

    4. Tweeted: http://twitter.com/cdziuba/status/1657846423

    5. I had a baby 6 months ago and I still have 20 pounds to loose so this would be perfect. I have heard they even have a nursing schedule that would work for me since I am still nursing my daughter. THanks!

    6. I’ve always wanted to try Weight Watchers but have been reluctant to spend the money in case it didn’t work for me. I’ve heard such wonderful things that I would love to try it for myself! I have been thoroughly unsuccessful on my own at losing baby weight from two kids so hopefully this will help!

    7. Yes! And you get to “eat extra points” when nursing. It’s awesome. I’m still nursing my 18-month-old and have been on the program since she was 5 weeks old.

    8. I actually tried Weight Watchers before, but really felt like exercise was kind of ignored, so I couldn’t make it all work together. I’d love to try the new program!

    9. I’m a huge fan of weight watchers and once lost 33lbs with them. I’m a stress eater though and when I dealt with some losses in my family I gained quite a bit back. So I’d love to rejoin and re-commit myself.

    11. I would LOVE to win! I lost most of my baby weight (Twins no less!) but have a bit to go and have started gaining back! This would be awesome to help me get back on track!
      Thanks!

    12. I would love to win one of these memberships so that I can get rid of my “baby” weight!

    13. I just started a low-carb diet, so I’d love to win this to help me in the right direction! I’m moving to start a new career at the end of summer, so I’d love to have a new body t debut it :) Thanks!

    14. I need to win this! Never did Weight Watchers formally and now that I want to I lost my job so I can’t afford to pay.

    16. I really need this so I can get healthier and get the tools I need to lose the weight as well as cook healthier meals for my whole family.

    17. I need to learn to make better choices; hope I win this one

    18. Id love to win this. I need help dropping 50lbs for a mountain bike race I have in november. Its going to be tough to climb hills with an extra 50lbs of body weight!

    19. Wow! I’d love to win this. I’m so out of shape right now. I was doing better than usual, but then I had surgery and gained the weight back. I’d love to have a jumpstart like this so I can get my body ready to have a baby! Thanks! :)

    20. I would love this!!! I have gained so much weight and need help! This would be a great start for me. Thank you!

    21. I am a huge fan of the Weight Watchers online. I joined a few years ago and lost 30+ lbs. It helps me stay accountable. Having to go online every day and record what I eat, my water, vitamin and veggie intake is a huge motivator to me. Plus the extra points allowed for everything from sweeping floors to full on workouts is a big help, it makes me want to follow the plan.

    22. I signed up above as I need all the help I can get

    23. I am really trying and get no encouragement around here- they all want to eat eat and eat HELP

    24. All I can say is I am 52, menopausal and gain weight lately just looking at a brownie!

    25. Ohhhh. . . do I need this. Thanks for the contest and please enter my name.

    26. I want to get healthy for not just myself but my kids. I want to watch them grow up. I want to be able to have fun with them and go on bike rides with them. This would help me achieve my goals.

    27. I have heard that the Weight Watcher’s online program is great and I would love to try it.

    29. It would be great to learn how to eat their way because with a bad back you cannot exercise the way you need too. Therefore you slowly gain,
      over the years and years of pain.

      I’m a lifetime WW member and went astray after keeping the weight off for 5 years. Divorded now, WW is not in my budget. I’d love to attend the meetings; they are fun and inspiring.

    36. Several of my friends have lost weight with Weight Watchers and I want to see if I can too! :)

    37. My shorts don’t fit and I can’t afford new clothes.

    38. Jessica Applegate

      i need to lose at least 75lbs, this would help alot

    41. I SO want to join Weight Watchers, but I just don’t have the money right now. 3 months should help me get fit for summer.

    42. I really need to lose weight, I’m pre-diabetic & have a family history of heart disease, plus I have arthritis. Help!

    43. I love weightwatchers

    44. I’d love to win to lose some weight.

    45. Frances Carty

      I would love to win to get on track.

    46. I would love to win because i only have 25 more pounds to lose and this would help out a lot!!!

    47. I was just telling my husband that I would like to join WW. My brother in law is a member and lost 50 pounds! I need better eating habits and would like to lose a few pounds also. I would love to win this. Thank you for the opportunity.

    48. I need help! I keep trying to do it on my own with little to no success.

    49. I know what to do and how to do it, but I can’t seem to get motivated. Weight Watchers has worked for me in the past, and I think it is time to give it another try. I think this will motivate me.

    50. Cynthia Hagood

      This would be great for me. I lost 22 pounds at WW but had to quit due to no money, now I am slowly putting the weight back on. Help me

    51. I need to lose weight and I think WW would help me get started and motivate to do it.

    53. i love ww — I lost a lot of weight with them in the past. but i can’t afford the membership right now. I have to loose weight since i had two emergency surgeries last year I have gained all my weight back!! I really need this for me!!

    54. great prize…thank you

    55. Doctor’s orders! And—he suggested Weightwatchers.

    56. I want to win becasue I had great success 30 lbs about 6 years ago. And now that I am quitting smoking I need to do something to stay acountable!

    57. I’m so tired of my jelly belly. Thanks for the giveaway~

    58. Weightwatchers can’t be beat.

    59. I was a Weight Watchers member years ago and made it to lifetime status. Unfortunately, over the years, I have regained the weight and more. I need to get back.

    60. Now this is a prize I could really use!

    61. WOW WOULD LOVE TO WIN THIS I HAVE FRIENDS WHO ARE DOING WEIGHT WATCHERS AND I WOULD LOVE TO TRY IT MYSELF

    62. I need to get back to Weight Watchers, and really love the idea of this challenge. If I win I’ll definately participate.

    63. I was on Weight Watchers last year and lost a total of 30 pounds, then I stopped. Why? I figured I could do it on my own and save the money. It doesn’t work like that though for me. I need that weekly scale incentive and the tips and motivation of the weekly meetings. I’m afraid to get on the scale now to see how much I’ve gained back and now summer’s coming and I’m quite sure all those great shorts I bought last year in my new size are not going to fit now if I don’t get back to the game plan.

      I have done points in the past and have slipped up again, I could use this
      Thanks for the giveaway

    70. well, i want this for the opposite of most people. i don’t eat enough, which has given me no metabolism. i am out of shape, toneless, and weigh more than i should due to lack of food and nutrients. i’ve heard that a lot of people with eating disorders are encouraged to try the ww plan. that’s why i need this!

    74. I want to fit into my old clothes, I weigh 10 pounds more than a year ago. I need to lose about 30 pounds and I think I need help (Weight Watchers) to do it!

    75. I would LOVE to win this giveaway! I had a baby five months ago and the baby weight is not coming off on its own. I tend to be a stress eater and my sweet little daughter is a very difficult baby – I tend to eat to calm my nerves with her. I have had tremendous success with Weight Watchers in the past and I am finally ready to commit myself to doing what needs to be done to get this baby weight off once and for all – eat healthy and exercise! Thank you for this giveaway – I will cross my fingers and hope that I am the lucky one chosen for this one!!!

    76. Janice Wright

      Although I lost 25 pounds three or four years ago, I’m stuck at my current weight. I would love to lose about 50 more pounds. Maybe this would help.

    77. Ken Robinson

      My sister would love this. Please accept my entry. Thank you.

    78. I am a stress eater, and I need to lose at least 20 pounds. I could use a 3 month membership.

      I need to desperately lose weight. This would be a great start!!!

      Thank You for the chance!

    80. christopher h

      i’ve been dieting since new years, this would help when i start to plateau

    81. I would like to win this giveaway because losing weight on my own is dreadful. It would be nice to have others in the same predicament to talk to, lean on for support and even make new friendships. I still have 14 years of baby weight that I would like to get off, but also to learn a new way of eating.

    82. I’ve used Weight Watchers online before and dropped several pounds, but have gained it all back and then some! If I won a membership I’d have no choice but to get back with the program. :)

    83. I used WW once before YEARS ago and lost 110 lbs….then gained it all back…not WW fault at all! I’d love to try WW again and this time be a success! Thanks!

    84. I am done having babies now and I need to focus on getting my body into shape (I have 40 pounds or more to lose) so that I have the energy to keep up with my 3 boys. I am also standing up in my youngest sister’s wedding in a little less than 2 months and would love to feel more confident.

    85. Oh this is just what I need!!! I have been wanting to join WW but the funds are tight when you have a hubby on layoff!!!
      Thanks for the chance to win…Woo-Hoo!

    86. I subscribe via google reader too… :)

    87. I would love to win this contest! I have over 60lbs left to lose from my pregnancy. I’ve already lost 62, but I need motivation and structure. Thank you for this giveaway!

    88. I have subscribed via Google Reader.

    89. I’ve blogged about the giveaway here:

      http://loreley-lorelei.blogspot.com/

    90. I would love to get on board with weight watchers! I like that it helps you change eating habits rather than starving yourself or selling you a bunch of pills. I’m a newlywed and we’re both about to graduate with our bachelor’s degrees (read: very poor) so it would be great to get this free three months. I have gained 25 pounds since I started college and want to get into better eating habits before we start having kids (maybe in a year or two). Thanks!

    91. Also, I looked through some of your archives and subscribed! looking forward to reading more :)

    92. i need all the weight loss help I can get.

    93. I really need this!

    94. I just had a baby and really need to lose the weight. It really helps to have a support group, I think.

    95. I’d like to try and lose weight.
      I’ve heard great things about WW.

    96. Well, I, too, have baby weight I’d like to lose…the problem is that the baby is now 15 years old! Would be wonderful to win this.

    97. A few of us at work joined together to support each other to lose weight. Half of them are on Weight Watchers and I’d love to join them. It looks like it works!

    98. valerie mabrey

      this would be great to jump start my diet

    99. i need to get in shape for the summer!

    100. My teenager has told me he is embarrased to be with me. It is time to get motivated.

    101. I want to win because dieting on my own is helping me lose a little but I want to lose a lot! Thanks for the chance :)

    102. I would like to win the membership because when I was able to afford WW in the past–it WORKED! I’d love the support and guidance again.

    103. I belonged to WW years ago and was successful losing weight on it. Now I’ve gained an enormous amount of weight and I need something to kick me in the butt. My health sucks, and I’ve become a hermit because I’m embarrassed to go out. Help!

    104. Paula Harmon

      After my 4th baby, the weight just doesn’t come off like it used to. I’ve always wanted to try Weight Watchers but the kids come first!

    105. I’m turning 30 this year and one of my goals is to get healthier, before I get older and health problems start occuring. I would love to try Weight Watchers to help me learn to eat better and to encourage me in working out so that I can finally lose these 60 extra pounds.

    106. I would love to win this, because i have found it harder and harder to find a diet that easy to follow, and one that i havent tried already. Weight watchers however does fall into the category of not having tried yet.

    107. I’d like the support and the accountability that comes along with the Weight Watchers community.

    108. I was on WW to prepare for getting pregnant and want to go back after this baby is born!

    109. I would love to win a membership to lose the baby weight after having twins. I have in laws that really love the program and talk about it often. I’m sure they would be excited for me if I started. Thanks!

    110. Sharon Seneker

      I have lost just 6 pounds. I need to lose 35 lbs. more. A support group would really help! Thanks for the opportunity! senekers@comcast.net

    111. I gained weight in the past 6 months and I would love to get great support through Weight Watchers to help me lose this!

    112. I’ve met several women who have done Weight Watcher’s and kept it off for a long time, and I really need to lose some weight. I have high blood pressure from being overweight.

    113. Because I am on WW online now, have lost 35 pounds and have 10 more to go!
      Thanks

    114. I’d like to win this simply because I need to lose weight and I’ve never tried Weight Watchers before.

    115. This is such a great opportunity. Weight loss is an uphill battle, and any help possible is wonderful.

    116. I want to win because I am short on motivation and energy–maybe this would help me get back on track.

    117. carmenisa jimmison

    126. I would like this. I need to get lose some weight.

    129. I’d love to win.. I just had twins :)

    130. I’d love to win a membership because I was previously a weight watchers member and got down to goal weight, the older I’m getting though the harder it is to maintain it. I think this would be a real motivation to stick to the points if I had an online membership.
