Hi everyone! I once was a WW member many, many years ago and lost about 50 lbs. I then went the phen-fen route and lost close to 70 lbs. When I gained those pounds back I tried to lose on my own by cutting out sweets (my major downfall) and limiting portions. I would lose and gain and lose and gain the same few pounds over and over. I'm now older, my knees are breaking down and it's way past time for me to do something about my weight. The WW program has obviously changed and the choices are confusing to me. I already go to a gym so I was interested in the Apple Watch deal. But that deal seems to limit one to the Online Only program. I think I will need to go to meetings until I can get a good understanding of the program. Does anyone know if I can pay to go to the meetings for a month or two? Looking forward to learning from everyone here!

There is monthly pass option. However, it does renew on your credit card 16 days from when you first start. So you need to commit to at least 2 months.
The best bang for your buck is the 3 month pass option.
This makes it cheapest by the week. you get 3 months at one time, plus the E-tools (all the online stuff) the click to chat, and the phone coaching.
I've never used click to chat or phone coaching but I actually know someone who called a coach while they were in the grocery store for support getting through the store without buying any junk!
They loved it.
You can pay week by week- I think about 17$ week, however you still have to pay for weeks you miss and you don't get any of the online tools.
Ihope this helps

Hi jkat! Heather really covered all the bases as far as options go. I just wanted to add that if you did decide to go the online route they actually now do a really good job of explaining how the program works, under the program basics tab. In addition to that there is a plethora of knowledge here and this fabulous group can help you with any questions 😊 Not sure which version of the program you previously did, but they now have the smart points option and the simply filling option (which used to be called core.) it is pretty simple to understand. Let us know if we can help with any other questions! |

You might consider going to one meeting and join. (In most areas there is no joining fee right now). Get the printed materials and attend an orientation (Getting to Know You). Then you can decide whether you want to purchase the Monthly Pass, join online, or just pay by the meeting. I'm in a franchise area and our meeting fee is $13. Don't believe it would be much more anywhere else. Franchises are generally a little more than corporate areas.
