Our approach to weight loss

Weight Watchers understands that men and women have different needs when it comes to weight loss. We’ve been helping men lose weight for over 45 years. Now, Weight Watchers eTools, the Internet companion to meetings, and Weight Watchers Online, a plan you follow completely online, are customized for men.
Our approach includes:
  • A practical, sustainable approach to weight loss that will help you keep it off for life.
  • The "Four Pillars" of the Weight Watchers approach, promoting the importance of developing healthy habits, building a supportive environment, and getting enough
    exercise, in addition to making smarter food choices.
  • Two flexible food plans--you choose the one that fits your life best.
  • No required or off-limits foods. We do offer some “Weight Watchers” foods that
    can help you along the way, but they’re not required.
 

We’ve got something for you

With our food plans you get customized guidelines for men. Plus, you’ll find advice, tools and strategies for tackling challenges unique to your lifestyle. Here are two examples:

Facts about men and weight loss

  • You’re not alone. In the U.S., about 70% of men are overweight, and about 30% of men are obese.1
  • Studies show that men are more
    likely than women to postpone
    dieting until their health begins to suffer, which means that they're more likely to be extremely overweight by the time they act.2
