About Weight Watchers
Philosophy
Weight Watchers has always believed that dieting is just one part of long-term weight management. A healthy body results from a healthy lifestyle - which means mental, emotional and physical health. Weight Watchers does not tell you what you can or can't eat. We provide information, knowledge, tools and motivation to help you make the decisions that are right for you about nutrition and exercise. We help you to make healthy eating decisions, and we encourage you to enjoy yourself by becoming more active.
At Weight Watchers we believe that healthy, long-term weight loss is within everyone's reach and we will help you reach your weight loss goals:
- Providing you with two ways to lose weight: Full Choice plan or NoCountTM plan.
- Guiding you to make positive changes to your behaviour.
- Motivating you every step of the way.
History
In the early 60's, Jean Nidetch, an American woman from Queens, New York, discovered the best way to control her weight was to be able to eat normal food and talk to friends and other people who could understand, and support her.
Jean invited some friends to her house for a coffee one day and asked if they'd join her in following a medical diet recommended to her by her hospital dietician.
They agreed to meet regularly just to talk about how they were getting on. Jean started holding meetings in other people's houses too and the group began to expand. She teamed up with businessman Al Lippert and together they founded Weight Watchers.
Four years later, the first meeting in the UK was held near Windsor. Since then the company has continued to expand: in the UK alone over 6,000 Meetings are now held each week by a Weight Watchers Leader who has also lost weight successfully with Weight Watchers.
And now, Weight Watchers is reaching others via the website: www.weightwatchers.co.uk
