How WeightWatchers program works to help you lose weight | WW NZ
How our program changes your relationship with food
Weight loss and support. None of those on-a-diet feelings.
Get a plan fit for you
Cookie-cutter programs don’t cut it—customisation does. When you sign up, you’ll answer a few questions that help us determine your metabolic rate. Then we’ll tailor a food plan that ensures healthy, lasting, totally liveable weight loss for you.
Learn the power of Points
Many programs consider just calories (kilojoules). Our system takes it a step further, taking into account a food’s complex nutritional factors, like added sugars, fibre, protein, and saturated fats vs. unsaturated fats, to create a single number: the Points® value. Points take the guesswork out of nutrition.
Use Points your way
Your plan will include a Points Budget, and how you spend is up to you. Wine on date night. Sunday brunch. Birthday cake. No food, event, or celebration is off-limits. And if you run out of Points? That’s where ZeroPoint® foods come in—they’re nutritional powerhouses you can eat anytime without tracking or measuring.
See why tracking is key
It’s scientifically proven! Tracking is the biggest predictor of weight loss, because it takes you from eating on autopilot to eating with awareness. Tracking has helped millions of members master portion sizes, turn mindless snacking into mindful snacking, and plan ahead so they can fit in their favourite foods.
Everything to help you succeed
We combine technology and community to get you to your goals.
