I must say it is a great plan IF you follow it..pretty much to the letter that is. I started on it January 2004. My first try was pretty successful. Lost nearly 20 pounds. I have gained half of that back. Tried another stab at the diet with less success, however I can safely say that if I didn't ever do WW I would have no idea about what I was eating and drinking. Even though I have gained 10 of the 20 I have lost, WW combined with pretty regular exercising (bike riding + a couple hours per week at the gym) has made it possible for me to not go beyond that. If I could just get commited to the program again, I could lose the 10 and maybe even 15 to get back to where I should be. Eating and drinking is just TOO MUCH FUN. Expecially Tiki drinks..most loaded with calories. I figure one Mai Tai made with Mr. & Mrs. T's Mai Tai mix and Mount Gay rum is about 5 points. That's not bad. So if you really wanna let loose on the Mai Tais, save all your Flex Points for the weekend or whatever night before your day off, this way you can get crazy and have seven of them in one night!!!!!!! Good Luck!!!
