OR they could just be messing with people and trying to make them think it is the magazine so they buy it when it is actually the recipe one. And sporting goods was where they used to keep the old magazines. Got it. I think it would be interesting to see what answer would be given if someone with an unexpired subscription called the 800 number in the magazine and asked, āWhere is my magazine? I havenāt received an issue since the one dated December."

Iām not 100% sure, but I think I heard of a āCollectorās Editionā of the magazine was going to be released towards to end of May...and of course, donāt know if that was just here or internationally.
The magazine used to come out mid month, then about January there was a really long lag-time, and then when it did come out it was on the thin side (so much so that there were numerous comments on Connect about it)...and it was also noticed that some of the articles and stories seemed like they may have been recycled from the US version of the magazine.
One of the new 2019 WW Ambassadors for Australia is a celebrity chef/food critic and a judge on Masterchef Australia. I immediately thought great, there will be absolutely loads of new exciting recipes in the mag....but nup. In fact, before I cancelled my membership, I think I only ever saw 2 posts from him about his progress, and they were quite vague. Hmmmm.....maybe Freestyle wasnāt working for him either!!!!!

I haven't been around much lately, but this explains why I couldn't find WW Magazine at the Nashville, San Diego, and Seattle Airports. Looked at Rite Aid in San Diego and they didn't carry it, and also looked at Kroger when I got home from my trip. Ms. Mindy is dismantling any vestiges of WW as we knew it.

dar1965, when I chatted with CS I got the impression that ceasing publication was an abrupt decision; I believe the magazine is a subsidiary (separate business), and wonder if they hit a point where they were not going to be able to make the payroll. The conversion ended on a note similar to āfinal decisions havenāt been made; stay tuned.ā That probably explains why nobody is hearing anything from WW. Got it, I think it's some point this week I will try to give them a call to see what their plans are not that I don't believe you but because I like making people squirm. š

I just called the 800 Weight Watcher magazine number and before you reach an agent there is a blurb about the magazine being discontinued. You will be receiving eating well magazine for the remainder of your Weight Watchers subscription I waited and talk to an agent, I voiced my opinion about them accepting my renewal knowing their magazine had been discontinued and that I was not interested in eating well was there any other options and they told me house Martha Stewart or Rachel Ray.

That sucks. A refund should be a mandatory option. Wonder what the Federal Trade Commission would have to say about that practice.
