Nearly everyone who has ever been on a diet, or who has ever read
about diets will have heard of Weight Watchers. They have been
the most recognizable product in the diet field since the early
1960’s
They are not really a diet as such, more a brand that is well known
in the weight loss industry as being one of the leading players, in
helping others to reach the weight that they want to achieve.
Weight watchers has Probably the largest amount of dieters of any
of the weight loss clubs and the fact that they have been
established for that amount of time is an indication of their success.
They have been estimated to have around 20,000,000 involved in
their diet clubs at any one time.
Their success is based not so much on the diets themselves as
much as the support system. The diets have been changed over the
years to fit with current thinking and best practice, but have
generally been based on a calorie-controlled system of weight loss.
They do not offer the guaranteed fast weight loss of some diets, but
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________
prefer the slow steady approach, that helps dieters to gradually lose
weight through sensible eating and then keep it off. But their diets
are not based on a particular focus, such as low fat or carbs, but on
having a generally good, low calorie diet.
The Weight Watchers diet is actually fairy simple to follow. They
have given all foods a number according to how much they are
likely to make you put on weight. Each person has an amount that
they can consume in a day according to how much they weigh and
their ideal weight loss.
Then they can eat whatever adds up to that number each day. That
is a very simple version of the Weight Watchers weight loss
system. It is brought together with advice on good diet and how
and when to eat and is a very comprehensive system for the
helping the dieter, to not only lose weight but also to keep that
weight off.
It should also be said that the Weight Watchers diet does lean
heavily towards their own products. But for all that it is a very
useful and well tried and tested weight loss system.
Weigh Watchers also have a very useful aspect that sets them aside
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________
from any of the books you buy, their weight loss meetings. This is
the basis of the entire weight watchers system and is fundamental
to their success.
The meetings are usually on a weekly basis and are lead by an
official Weight Watchers leader. These clubs are a great
encouragement to those who like to have some help and support
when they are dieting. Although they can also be a little daunting if
you haven’t reached your weekly weight target.
If you prefer not to go to the meetings they do have an online
version that you can also use if you are not able to get to the
meeting that week. They also have a very well populated forum
that can be a great help to those who are struggling or those who
just like to share how the weight loss is going.
Weight watchers are undoubtedly the brand leaders in the field of
diet clubs and products and are very well thought of by many, the
only real drawback is that the meetings are obviously much more
expensive that just buying a book. But if you like to be part of a
group and think that your weight loss would be more successful
with this encouragement, then the Weight Watchers clubs may be
worth considering.
