How WW Health Solutions Meets NICE standards

WeightWatchers is a multi-component lifestyle weight management programme, our philosophy built on what we call a ‘4 pillar approach’, to ensure healthy and sustained weight loss in line with NICE (PH53) best practices. 

i.              Healthy eating

ii.             Physical activity

iii.            Group support

iv.            Behaviour change

This ‘4 pillar approach’ is adopted though our weight loss system, our weekly Workshops, our digital service and our range of education and communication channels.

Our approach to weight loss is underpinned by current national public health guidance for healthy eating and physical activity.

WeightWatchers have been involved in a large number of research and evaluation studies and there is an on-going programme of research, evaluation (both qualitative and quantitative) and continuous improvement within the services delivered with health partners.

What to expect

The programme includes:

• 12 sessions of community Workshops with the flexibility for the Service User to have 2 weeks holiday and > 2 weeks off for sickness / other incidents. Workshops offer a safe, motivational and supportive environment for people to learn how to adapt their lifestyle and maintain a healthier weight in a network of a mixed group of people.  We support 100% attendance at our Workshops and we encourage this from initial triaging.
• 16 weeks of access to our online tools (web & App). This includes a wealth of physical activity film tutorials, designed to motivate members to get more active and incorporating activity into their daily routines.​
