An Introduction to Weight Watchers
The Weight Watchers program is a state-of-the-art, scientifically designed approach to weight control. Based on the philosophy that successful weight loss is achieved through the attainment of a series of realistic goals, the Weight Watchers program is a multi-dimensional, comprehensive way to learn how to achieve and then maintain a healthy body weight for the long-term.

It incorporates healthful eating, physical activity, behavioral support, maintenance, and group support. The Program affirms that to lose weight safely and sensibly, a person must learn to eat more healthfully, increase physical activity and handle the challenges encountered in the process of changing behavior.
The need for behavioral change is a core component of the Weight Watchers Program. Weight Watchers knows that there are personal challenges encountered throughout the weight-loss process. To meet this need, Weight Watchers Tools for Living were developed to teach specific skills that enhance members’ ability to meet and overcome these challenges. As part of the group meetings, discussions on real topics - such as staying motivated, overeating, and managing stress - offer valuable insight and provide the reassurance that no one has to do it alone.
