Why go to meetings?

Smiling Woman
You’ll get the guidance that you need to succeed and stay on track. In fact, studies have shown that participation in the Weight Watchers program results in significant improvements in weight loss, activity levels, and quality of life.2 Combine over 45 years of expertise, a supportive community, and a trained Leader who’s lost weight in meetings too, and the result is a proven, time-tested way of losing weight.

 

What happens at a meeting?

Chairs at Weight Watchers Meeting
You’ll get important information from the week’s weight loss topic and a confidential weigh-in each week to keep you on track. It’s not like an office or PTA meeting: the Leader is someone who’s been through the process of weight loss and succeeded. Meetings are an opportunity to get expert advice, share helpful strategies—or just listen and find motivation. It’s a little more than a half hour out of your week, and it’s worth it.

Don’t take our word for it

"Go to the meetings. You don't have to weigh in or say a word. I went for months without ever opening my mouth. I listened and learned and eventually took part in the group."
--Donna, Weight Watchers meetings member
