Interesting changes at Weight Watchers. Well, at WW as it is now known. Apparently Weight Watchers is now known as WW and will use the tagline of Wellness That Works. The food plan is apparently not changing, but WW is also trying to attract people who are more interested in health and wellness. So, still will have the weight loss program but hope to add people not focused on weight loss so much as wellness.

When I sign into WW now, and search for meetings the terminology is new.

Store = Studio
Meetings = Workships
Leader = Wellness Coach

I haven't been to a meeting since this was announced so not sure how it will be presented. It may be that this is mostly terminology whether than much of a change at the meetings (oops - workshops) per se. That is for someone already a member either at meetings or online, there may not be much change. But, there are more options for those less focused on weight loss.

At my old meeting we had some members not at goal weight who really weren't that focused on trying to lose more weight. But, they did want to eat in a healthy way and found that coming to meetings helped with that.

Anyone been to a meeting yet where this was discussed?

There are also changes to Connect (will start having Connect groups) and there will be a rewards program (which I actually like the idea of) and FitPoints will be calculated differently (not much detail on this yet).
