All the details on PersonalPoints™
When you join WW, you’ll answer a series of questions via our PersonalPoints™ Engine, which builds your unique ZeroPoint™ food list and PersonalPoints™ Budget to ensure you can eat what you love and still lose weight.
It’s up to you how you spend your Points®
Did you know that 300 calories from a brownie impacts your body differently than 300 calories from grilled chicken? Unlike other weight-loss programmes, we look at calories and big-picture, complex nutrient data to create a food’s PersonalPoints™ value. It’s exactly why healthier eating feels easier on WW.

Myths, debunked!
WW Coach Jocelyn is here with the real deal about Points®.
Your top questions, answered!
PersonalPoints™ brings together three groundbreaking innovations - personalised ZeroPoint™ foods lists, an algorithm that makes healthy choices simpler, and rewards for building healthy habits - to provide a truly personalised path to weight loss. And “personalised” isn’t just a buzzword - it’s scientifically proven that individualised approaches lead to greater weight loss than a one-size-fits-all approach!
Let us count the exciting ways! Our brand-new algorithm crunches even more nutritional data, so you’re guided towards the healthiest choices. Foods higher in fibre and healthy fats - like avocado, almonds, and some whole grains - are now lower in Points® than before. We’re also nudging you away from added sugar and unhealthy fat. Some foods may have gone up a bit in Points®, but you’ll still have plenty in your Budget for the ones you love.
Anything you want - really! On WW, nothing is off-limits. Just track each food, stick to your Budget, eat ZeroPoint™ foods, and watch the weight come off.
We have thousands of meatless recipes (plus a plant-based cookbook!) that make a vegan or vegetarian lifestyle and weight loss totally possible - and delicious.
When it comes to nutrition, calories don’t tell the whole story. PersonalPoints™ factor in calories, added sugar, saturated fat, protein, fibre, and unsaturated fat to guide you towards a healthier pattern of eating so you can lose weight and feel good.
