Hi there, welcome to the forum. Good luck with your diet. There are a few big-time losers on here who combine Weight Watchers with low-carb very successfully, having reached a plateau in weight loss through low-carbing alone. Most people find that low-carbing works fine without the need for adding WW. I gained weight on the healthy eating WW diet (even though I added none of the extra "treats" which were allowed). I've lost loads on low-carbing. though, which just proves how different we all are.
I think you're very wise to be circumspect about that diet - these people might be slowing down their metabolism due to eating too few calories, plus losing lean body weight, making it difficult to maintain afterwards. Having said all that, quick results tend to enable us to endure tempation more easily, don't they, so maybe that's what these people need.
Bye for now..
