Weight Watchers Momentum

Weight Watchers' newest weight loss plan teaches you to avoid hunger.


BACKGROUND

When you think of weight loss programs, Weight Watchers is probably one of the first that pops into your mind. Known for its own line of foods, support-centered groups and practical approach to keeping weight off, Weight Watchers is always on the up-and-up.

The new Weight Watchers Momentum program helps you to learn how to handle hunger, resist temptation, increase feelings of satisfaction after you eat, make wise food choices and get the support form peers and counselors that only Weight Watchers delivers.

The Momentum program uses the Weight Watchers POINT system, but the difference is that the food you’ll be eating will make you feel full longer. The food in the Momentum program is full of fiber, slow-release carbohydrates, lean proteins and quality fats. By consuming foods that keep your hunger at bay, you’ll stave off tempting eating triggers so that you can lose weight and keep it off.

You can sign up for the Momentum program at your local Weight Watchers center or online.

DIET and NUTRITION

Even though food is just one aspect of Weight Watchers, for the Momentum program, what you’ll be eating is a significant part of your potential for weight loss success.

In using the Weight Watchers Points system, you’ll learn the secrets of filling foods so that you can feel satisfied for longer periods of time and stave off cravings. Foods on the Momentum program include turkey burgers, baked chicken with herbs, sautéed shrimp with spices and no-cook snacks like cherries, air-popped popcorn, and guacamole.

Momentum meals and snacks are low in fat, low in calorie but generous in good carbohydrates, fiber, quality fats and protein. These nutrients are known to take longer for your body to digest so that you’ll keep your blood sugar levels balanced and you’ll stay full for longer periods of time.

EXERCISE

Exercise is a component of the Momentum program. Similar to other Weight Watchers programs, you will learn the benefits of exercise and how to start an exercise program that facilitates weight loss. Weight Watchers Online subscribers will have access to fitness demonstrations, as well as tips and advice for how to make exercise an integral part of your long-term healthy lifestyle.

CONCLUSION

The Weight Watchers Momentum program is a specific kind of program that focuses on eating meals and snacks that sustain satiety, and are low in calories and fat. The foods in the Momentum program are chosen because of their ability to take a longer time for your body to digest. Exercise, adhering to the Weight Watchers POINTS system, and attending weekly support group meetings (if you choose the meetings approach) are additional essential components to making Momentum a successful weight loss program. Momentum seamlessly follows Weight Watchers' "stop dieting and start living" approach to weight loss.

My mom and I are going on Monday to sign up. I did WW back in 1998 and had excellent results, but 11 years later and 3 kids later I really need to take off this extra weight. I have back pain that I know is due to my weight gain. I feel terrible about myself. I don't like to look in the mirror. I have tried Quick Weight Loss Center, VERY expensive and hard to stick to if you don't like many vegetables. WW worked for me before so I am going back to what I know works and what I can stick to! posted Jan 1st, 2009 10:19 am
