What Are the Benefits of Weight Watchers?

Weight Watchers is a holistic diet plan that developed the "four pillars of healthy weight loss"---eating smarter, building a supportive environment, getting adequate exercise and developing healthy habits. Weight Watchers does charge a fee to join, but you can attend a meeting for free to find out if it fits your needs before paying.

Meetings

Weight Watchers offers weekly meetings to keep you motivated and teach you how to stick to a healthy lifestyle. According to a 2008 Weight Watchers tracking survey, 96 percent of Weight Watchers meetings members say they would recommend meetings to a friend.

Online

Weight Watchers Online offers an alternative to people who do not wish to attend meetings. There are tools, recipes and forums to help you stay on track.

Men

Weight Watchers offers a customized plan for men including meal plans for families or men who travel often.

Points

The Points system takes into account a food's calories, fat and fiber content. Points help you keep track of what you eat, allowing you to eat anything you want in moderation, emphasizing nutrition.

Smart Ones

Weight Watchers offers Smart Ones, which are premade meals or food items with the points already calculated for you. Smart Ones are available in most grocery stores.
