The WeightWatchers® Points® Programme:

Our very own nutrition science

Go beyond calorie counting

We take a food’s calories and complex nutritional info and turn it into a single number—the Points® value. The healthier a food is, the fewer Points it’ll have.



Stick to a Budget

Get your customised Points Budget to “spend” on any foods you want. Track your food in the app. As long as you stay within your Budget, you’ll lose weight.



Eat healthier, without guesswork

Nutrient-dense ZeroPoint® foods require no tracking or measuring. These are the foods you should aim to eat often—and anytime.

Be in good company

Connect is a members-only, judgment-free space to share your favourite Points hacks, problem-solve food challenges, discover recipes that fit your Budget, and celebrate each other.

Let's set the record straight

Here’s what we really do–and what we definitely don’t.

🚫 Myth: WeightWatchers will send me diet meals

Truth: We’re fans of regular, everyday food. Prepackaged meals don’t teach you how to eat—plus, we didn’t think you’d want to eat those things forever.

🚫 Myth: I have to weigh myself in front of everyone at meetings.

Truth: First thing’s first: you don’t have to go to Workshops (but see why they’re great). Even if you do, your weight is for your eyes only.

🚫 Myth: I have to track forever.

Truth: Nope! Think of tracking as a tool you need now, not always. Once you get the hang of it, you’ll naturally learn what portions and foods are getting you to your goals.

🚫 Myth: I can get the same thing from free weight-loss apps.

✅ Truth: The best things in life are free–but not always. We have features you won’t find anywhere else, and we’ve been named the best diet for weight loss for 13 years in a row.
