Sometimes working on your weight loss and wellness goals can feel a little lonely. But the reality is that at WW you’re never alone. Aside from all the support and tips you’ll receive from fellow WW members (hello, Connect groups!), our Virtual Coaches are here to help and motivate you throughout your journey.
Best of all, they don’t just teach the programme, they live it - meaning their advice is always on-point. Here, we’re sharing the stay-on-track strategies that help them succeed on WW, so you can too.
Make tracking more effortless
“When I’m having a busy day, I like to take pictures of my meals. It’s easier for me to track them later in the week.” WW Coach Sophie
“I pre-track all of my meals for the day while I drink my morning coffee. I can always make edits later, but having a roadmap for my food makes me feel organised and ready for whatever comes my way!” WW Coach Michael
“The Quick Add feature in the WW app is a little time-saver that makes a big difference. I always have Greek yogurt with frozen cherries and almonds for breakfast. I go to the search bar on My Day, tap ‘Quick Add', call it ‘My Yogurt', enter the value, and I'm done!” WW Coach Mary
Have a going-out game-plan
“Whenever I go out to eat with friends, I always check the WW app to see if the restaurant is listed. Glancing at the menu and choosing my main dish in advance takes all the stress away from dining out. Plus, it makes ordering a breeze!” WW Coach Lilly
“When attending a gathering with a ton of food, I have three tips: (1) Try to eat something before you go so that you’re not starving by the time you get to the party. (2) Focus on the actual purpose of the gathering and think of the food as a secondary actor, not the main focus. (3) Track honestly before and after the party.” WW Coach Gigi
Get creative in the kitchen
“I always sauté my veggies in water to avoid using oil. I’ll add onions to a dry, hot skillet and let them sit for a minute until they start browning. You get a really rich taste just from the caramelisation. Then, just add your veggies to the skillet and add a couple of tablespoons of water at a time!” WW Coach Julie
“I take advantage of the recipe builder in the WW app to make healthier versions of my family's traditional Latin foods. I can make ingredient substitutions or add alternate cooking methods, like using an air fryer instead of a deep fryer. The best part? All the adjustments I make will be saved in the app for the next time!” WW Coach Yadhira
Make snacks a little snazzier
“I love getting creative using food from the WW Shop. You can make your own nachos with the tortilla chips, for example. Or simply stock up on WW protein bars and good-for-you snacks to tide you over between mealtimes!” WW Coach Kylie
Meal-prep in a major way
“I always cook extras. I like to divide everything I make into glass containers, then label and freeze them. That way, there’s always a healthy meal on hand when things get hectic. I call them ‘Natalie's Frozen Entrees’ without the extra salt or preservatives!” WW Coach Natalie
