Thanks all and a question

[Guest guest]

HI and all,

Thanks for sharing the websites. I have been pouring over them hoping to find

that spark again.

I did so well my first few weeks, then life happened and I was not able to

attend meetings and things snowballed from there. I'm sure you know what I

mean. I hate that I can so easily get distracted, and then once I get

distracted, it takes forever for me to regain my focus!

Well, I got up this morning nad *told* my hubby that he had to get the kiddos

where they needed to go (I homeschool 4 kids, and they all had piano lessons

this morning), and I was going to WW meeting. Well, that meant he had to take

my van and left me with his work truck. Lo and behold, the clutch was messed

ups and I could not get it into gear for the life of me! So I called him up

crying and fussing at him (though it was not his fault), because now I can't get

to a meeting again.

I am frustrated that I can't find a phone number for our local WW...all we can

get is the 800 number, and they said that they don't have phone numbers to the

local centers. Which I thought was weird. They said that all they could do was

fax them a letter to have them give me a call. ?????? So I said forget it, I

could drive up there faster than that. ( Just frustrating that you can't

call and talk to your local leaders. Maybe I'm viewing it all wrong.

Anyway, I was curious (and no, I didn't ask WW on the phone), if I missed 2

weeks, will I have to pay for those 2 weeks? When I joined it was free

registration and then just the $12 per week, which I pay weekly. But I just

didn't know if I was going to be responsible to pay the missing weeks. That

would hurt right now financially.

Thanks again so much for the websites. Being a stay at home mom, and

homeschooling all the wee ones, it is hard for me to feel connected to the group

here and I so WANT to feel connected and be encouraged.

Blessings,

Rhonda

Rhonda,

I'm so sorry you're having struggles in getting to your meetings. When you

DO get to your next meeting, try asking the receptionist for the number

there. Hopefully they don't have " orders " to not give it out.

I know the meetings are so valuable....they've meant a lot to me through my

WW journey. If I can be of any help please don't hesitate to ask. I'm a

homeschooler too, to two mildly special-needs kids ages 9 and 12 (although I

also have some grown-up kids that were not homeschooled!).

Rhonda,

If I am correct, you will have to pay for any missed meetings.

However, you till have time this week to attend your meeting - so

you would really only pay for one missed meeting. And sometimes,

paying for a couple of missed meetings is cheaper in the long run

than letting it slide, then watching your food slides, then your

weight slides (up) and then you join and pay to lose the same weight

you have already paid to lose. I understand money being tight - so

you don't want to pay for the weight twice. And I always thought of

I was gonna pay for those meetings regardless - so I might as well

get what I paid for. If I had to miss my regular meeting I found

another one somewhere come hell or high water. I believe on the

weight watcher's site it will tell you all meeting places and times

in your area.

Hang in there - YOU CAN DO IT!!!

Hi Ronda,

I joined up on a free thing too and the other day I found some old paperwork

that explained the flex payment plan and the regular plan and it said on the

regular plan you are responsible for paying for the missed meetings, but you are

suppose to get 3 miss meeting passes for 6 months.

I never got any miss meetings passes, but maybe they just keep a record. I

would call the 800 number and ask them about payment.
