How to track your way to success

Want in on the secret to weight-loss success? Make the WeightWatchers app Points tracker your new secret weapon…

If you’re a WW member, you know that tracking is a big part of the plan. But is it really that important? You bet it is.

Using the Points tracker can be key to keeping on track when it comes to your weight-loss journey, because it’s the only way to stay on top of what you’re really eating. On the tracker, you’ll be able to find the Points values of everything you eat, plus you’ll get a week’s overview of your daily and weekly Points allowances – so you’ll always know how to plan ahead. And, it’s a great tool for when things don’t exactly go to plan on the scales.

If you haven’t had the result you were hoping for, check out your tracker and ask yourself:

• How many Points do I usually need for breakfast, lunch and dinner?

• When I’ve been successful, how many Points have I used for snacks?

• Which times and days of the week are my trouble spots?

• How have I successfully used my weekly Points allowance?

With a record of what you’ve eaten and how it’s impacted your journey, you’ll be able to learn what works best for you – and what doesn’t work so well. Plus, if you’re lacking in inspiration, you can always look back on one of your successful weeks and use it as a meal map for the week ahead.
