How The WeightWatchers Weight-Loss Program Works
Just *£10/month
There’s something for everyone—and every goal.
Proven results from the weight-loss leader you trust
Small changes. Big results. You’ll make simple tweaks to your eating habits, so you can stay on the right track wherever life takes you—including celebrations and busy schedules.
Long-term weight loss. Losing weight fast can be motivating–but it doesn’t always last. Our nutrition and behavioural science have helped members lose weight and keep it off—two years later.‡
Solutions for everyone. Whether you’re starting out or starting over, we have what you need to change your habits and get healthier—conveniently and easily.

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†.
