Weight watcher meetings2/20/2023 ![]() The lecturer stays back after the lecture to take first time attendees through the program or to provide a refresher or answer questions for anyone that needs it. The first half an hour is for weighing-in and the second half hour is for the lecture. Some people come with friends but a lot of people (the vast majority in my class) just come on their own. There are all sorts of people, with a whole range of different amounts of weight to lose. The age range of attendees is quite broad, with everything from late teenagers through to people in their 70’s. ![]() ![]() At each class I have been to the majority of attendees are female, although there have been a few males. I have been to several different classes to fit in with my schedule, although I do try to attend the same class most weeks. Attendees are not made in any way to feel uncomfortable about being in a situation where they need help to lose weight. They do not reproach or belittle or berate anyone or anything. They acknowledge the challenges involved in losing weight and reaching your weight loss goals. The lectures themselves focus on being positive and providing support. At my particular class, the lecturer is so funny that the class spends a large amount of the time laughing, although I think we are very lucky to have her! One of my fellow weight watchers actually told the class recently that she considered the weekly meetings to be a form of therapy! I can completely see why. The staff members are very supportive and they are all weight watchers themselves. I have not found any of the competitiveness or “clique” behaviour than can happen in groups. The first thing and most important thing I have found is that the meetings have an incredibly supportive air about them. I thought I would provide some insight into what the meetings are like and address some common specific concerns for those who may be feeling uncomfortable or nervous about attending their first meeting. ![]() I have recently rejoined Weight Watchers after a break of many years and have found the meetings to be tremendously helpful and supportive. The thought of attending a group meeting with strangers can sometimes be intimidating, even more so if you are uncomfortable or self conscious about the way you look. If you have been considering joining Weight Watchers to lose weight, you might be wondering what the meetings are like and what is involved if you attend. ![]()
