| Food Choices | Everything’s on the menu! The new myWW+ is our most holistic approach to weight loss ever, matching you with a customized plan through our new in-depth personal assessment. You’ll also get a list of hundreds of ZeroPoint™ foods that you don't have to measure or track, giving you freedom in what you eat, while you reach your goals. | Whole30 is a 30-day elimination diet that requires you to completely cut out added sugar, alcohol, grains, legumes, dairy, and baked goods including bread in order to reset the body. After restricting your diet for 30 days, food groups are slowly reintroduced into your diet allowing you to see how each affects your body. |
| Livability | WW is more than just a quick fix. You’ll learn science-backed techniques that help build lasting habits in a program that’s built to fit into your life. We've added new food, activity, sleep, and mindset tools designed to help make weight loss easier. With an approach that goes beyond food, you’ll see and feel benefits both on and off the scale. | Avoiding entire food groups is challenging and requires 100% commitment and focus. An elimination diet can cause you to miss out on important nutrients your body needs for optimal health. |
| Support | In-person and Virtual Workshops, WW Coaches, 24/7 Live Coaching chat, and Customer Service, are there to help whenever you need it. Our exclusive social network, Connect, allows you to share your journey with other members in a positive and encouraging environment. | Blog posts, guides to help get you started, and an online forum are available on Whole30.com. |
| Cost | Our plans start at $4.61/week**, plus the cost of groceries you purchase independently. | Whole30 provides the guidelines for free and there are books with more guidance to purchase. Because you follow Whole30 by yourself, the only cost associated is for groceries. |
Plus, WW is the #1 doctor-recommended weight-loss program based on a 2019 survey by Kantar Health of 500 doctors who recommend weight-loss programs to patients. |
*WW was ranked #1 in TWO U.S. News & World Report categories for 10 years in a row! Learn more here. |
