Bottom Line
The points-based method of Weight Watchers is outdated and doesn’t go far enough to promote healthy lifestyle changes. For better success, stick with diets like Nutrisystem or Medifast Diet.

Weight Watchers Reviews

I am a Weight Watchers lifetime member who did gain it all back. I am losing again but found I needed more structure and less work. I went on Nutrisystem. Now I'm doing what I call Weight Watchers a la Nutrisystem. Honestly, Weight Watchers really does have a more "accurate" plan. It has greater flexibility to accommodate various body types. (I just don't have the time to plan and prepare themeals.) I am a 5'11" woman with 40 pounds to lose and Nutrisystem prescribed the same food for me as a woman 5'0" with 40 pounds to lose. That's nuts. They also don't have a solid plan for adding food for additional exercise...also nuts. After the first week, I was starving. So, I used my old Weight Watchers materials to adjust the Nutrisystem plan to work for me (adding some protein each day above their recommendations). The result was the best of both worlds and I have consistently lost 2 pounds per week.

As for Nutrisystem food...definitely small portions. Some meals are inedible but I've found enough I do like to have variety and enjoy it.
