At one time as a life timer you were required to weigh in once a month. This helps you stay at goal or within 2 pounds. If you are over your goal (more then 2 pounds over) you may attend 3 weeks of that month and listen to the lecture every week free if you do not get weighed in. Then the 4 th week of the month you will need to get weighed. If you are above the allowed 2 pounds you will have to pay as a penalty. If you are back down and not more then 2 pounds then that weigh in would be free. So go back, get back on program, get weighed once a month and try take off the excess weight before it gets out of hand. I made the mistake and put on too much. I’m choosing to attend every week to help me get back on track.
