| An integrated approach that combines smarter eating, healthy habits, exercise and a supportive environment. |
A focus just on food. Most diets tend to ignore exercise or other factors necessary for healthy and sustained weight loss. |
| The PointsPlus formula, which takes the complex science of how we process different foods, and whittles it down into an easy-to-follow plan, based on simple numbers. |
Rigid rules that usually focus on a single nutrient ("Eat less carbs!"), eliminate entire food groups or require you to buy special diet foods. |
| A plan that guides you toward nutritious eating choices, and helps you lose and maintain a healthy weight. |
Promises of rapid weight loss with little effort, but no information on how to keep the weight off for the long haul. |
| Over forty-five years of successfully helping people lose weight, paired with the most up-to-date nutrition research. |
“Proof” often based on one scientific study designed to support the diet’s claims. |
| A program that adapts to your lifestyle and particular needs, so you can reach success through a more personalized weight-loss experience. |
An approach that doesn't take into account personal tastes or needs.
