Our team includes nutrition and behavioral scientists, registered dieticians, clinical researchers, and more. Together, they help members overcome common weight-loss hurdles — like stress-eating or late-night snacking — while our exclusive Points® system makes nutrition easier. After signing up, members answer a few questions to get a customized plan that’s designed to help them build healthy habits with proven behavior change techniques.

After enrolling in the program, a member simply logs into the WW app and answers a few simple questions. They’re asked to indicate if they’re living with either type 1 or type 2 diabetes. Based on the responses, members living with diabetes will get a customized nutrition plan with a budget and ZeroPoint® food list, curated specifically for those living with diabetes. The Points® Budget is like a financial budget, but with food — and it’s designed to be flexible.

Members still enjoy all aspects of the WeightWatchers program — like coaching, community and recipes — plus a carefully tailored ZeroPoint® food list selected by our nutrition and diabetes experts. They also have access to a blood sugar tracker, allowing them to see patterns and changes in blood sugar over time.

The regular WeightWatchers program is suitable for members with prediabetes. The Diabetes Program is for people who have been told by their doctor or another healthcare provider that they have either type 1 or type 2 diabetes.

WeightWatchers isn’t designed for people who are pregnant — therefore, the Diabetes Program is not recommended for members who have gestational diabetes.
