How to Take the <em>myWW+</em> Personal Assessment

We know there’s a connection between weight-loss and healthy eating, but that’s not the complete picture. The myWW+ program looks at several elements to bring you a holistic approach for real weight-loss success.

It starts with a brand new personal assessment, where we get to know your food preferences, activity level, sleep habits, lifestyle, and more. At the end, you’ll get insight into your overall wellness to identify the areas where you’re strong and where you could use a boost, so you can focus on the elements that will matter most along your journey.

What research went intomyWW+?


From early development to launch, the myWW+ program was built to meet our member needs. Initial research with our members and non-members sourced insights that helped us meet members where they are and provide them a holistic approach to weight loss. Once features were developed, we tested them to get feedback, culminating in a global pilot of the new features with over 5,000 members.


Which color will help me lose the most weight?


All of them. No, really.

After two-plus years of research and extensive testing with over 20,000 members around the globe, we learned that members on Green, Blue, and Purple achieved equal and consistent weight losses.

Some people find a long list of ZeroPoint™ foods works best for them. Others would rather have more SmartPoints® to spend. The one that’s best is the one that gives you the most flexibility, because that's the one that will be the most livable for you.
