Change your relationship with food
Nutrition simplified, with no deprivation. That's the power of our Points® programme.
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. Staying within your Budget is key to helping you lose weight.
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.
Be in good company
Connect is a members-only, judgment-free space to share your favourite Points hacks, problem-solve food challenges, discover recipes that fit your Budget, and celebrate each other.

Let's set the record straight
Here’s what we really do–and what we definitely don’t.
🚫 Myth: WeightWatchers will send me diet meals
✅ Truth: We’re fans of regular, everyday food. Prepackaged meals don’t teach you how to eat—plus, we didn’t think you’d want to eat those things forever.
🚫 Myth: I have to weigh myself in front of everyone at meetings.
✅ Truth: First thing’s first: you don’t have to go to Workshops (but see why they’re great). Even if you do, your weight is for your eyes only.
🚫 Myth: I have to track forever.
✅ Truth: Nope! Think of tracking as a tool you need now, not always. Once you get the hang of it, you’ll naturally learn what portions and foods are getting you to your goals.
🚫 Myth: I can get the same thing from free weight-loss apps.
✅ Truth: The best things in life are free–but not always. We have features you won’t find anywhere else, and we're the #1 doctor-recommended weight-loss program†.
