Have you ever noticed the fine print on Weight Watcher (or other weight-loss plans') advertisements? Most, if not all say 'results not typical'. This is a legal safeguard so the people who say they're on WW (or other programs) but aren't really following the tenants of the program and hence don't lose weight, can't sue 'em. A friend on the Just Married message board at WW.com (see links to the right) posted the following:
I am a "Results not typical". Basically 90% of Americans have tried to diet once in their lives (probably more). Of that 90%, only 10% actually lost the weight. Of that 10% only 1% has kept it off for 5 or more years. So, these success people- losing weight and keeping it off is a result that is not typical.
I guess I'm a 'results not typical', too!
