The WW Points® Program:
Our very own nutrition science
Go beyond calorie counting
We take a food’s calories and complex nutritional info and turn it into a single number—the Points® value. The healthier a food is, the fewer Points it’ll have.
Stick to a Budget
Get your customised Points Budget to “spend” on any foods you want. Track your food in the app. As long as you stay within your Budget, you’ll lose weight.
Be in good company
Connect is a members-only, judgement-free space to share your favourite Points hacks, problem-solve food challenges, discover recipes that fit your Budget, and celebrate each other.
Eat healthier, without guesswork
Nutrient-dense ZeroPoint® foods require no tracking or measuring. These are the foods you should aim to eat often—and anytime.

You can be an active participant or simply sit back and listen! No matter how you experience Workshops, they’re a totally safe space where you’ll find new ideas and endless inspiration.
Generally, a WeightWatchers membership with Workshops (formerly called our Premium membership) starts for as low as $45 per month, depending on the length of the commitment you choose. See offers and pricing for Workshops.
We’re here for you every step of the way. There are two types of memberships.
The first is our Core membership, and it is your essential toolkit for weight loss with our trusted Points program, award-winning app, and tools to help you succeed.
The second is our Workshops membership (sometimes called Premium) and offers even more support for your weight-loss success. During Workshops, you get live and expert coaching, strategies for how to best use the WeightWatchers program, and a community of other members on a similar journey.
