I never had the core foods list here. I do not know who does. I never knew who did. I found a link that worked. I published it 5 years ago. Now it doesn't work. Sorry.

For the life of me, I can't think of the name of it off hand, but it is fairly new and geared toward the newest Momentum plan. By the way, I JUST was hired for WW to start as a receptionist and on to be a leader after training, etc. I found this blog while looking for info on working for WW, so I was happy to find it. Keep in mind, this is only a part time job for me, as I don't currently work (I have 3 daughters I have been lucky enough to stay home with.) So that being said, I know the money isn't great, but I am really excited to give it a try and form my opinions. I will let you know how it works out!

I am holding off on life insurance because of my weight. I used to belong to weight watchers- and may do it on line this time. ( Projected start May 1) . The biggest problem is budgetary. Not in the price of the program but in the price of the food- and I am talking about the cost of home cooking not prepackaged. Right now , I can buy everything for $52.00 for 2 weeks . But its not Weight Watchers- I have several of the sook books and wish that they were set up more like Robin Tyler or Sandra Lee from Food Network- Make this A meal and using the same ingredients get totally different B,C, and D. I am a single and something serving 6 is dooming me to the same stuff or buying food for food for weeks - the avg. supermarket does not sell 1 chix breast. I have a tiny little freezer on top of my refrigerator. I don't drive so prefer to shop 1 market in a 2 week period. So how do I do this without going above $55.00 per pay period? Usually it doubles my food costs and with my electricity going up 300-400% this last year ( everyone's here has) - that's not an option. I just spoke with my insurance man yesterday.

I am a student and a lifetime member. I was considering becoming a leader, but I noticed that the pay information was nowhere to be found. I did not assume it was much, but it is helpful to know how much. It would not be worth my time, because you can get paid 3x as much for doing other product demonstrations for the same chunks of time. I appreciate the enlightenment so I can continue moving on. It is a great program though! It is disappointing they do not believe in investing more in their leaders! Thanks and best of wishes to you!! Thank you for the honest information.

I paid for three months and so far I haven't gotten anything for my money. Tell me how to get into it.

I stumbled onto this site while researching WW meeting ideas from other leaders. I have been a lifetime member of WW for 25 years and an employee for about six months. The comments here about it not paying a lot are fairly accurate but not comprehensive. A lot of WW locations are franchises and not owned by WW International. They each set their own rules regarding reimbursement for mileage etc. So far, I have found our owners to be reasonable. The comments about leaders encouraging their members to eat below their points target is frightening! I don't know ANY leader that would suggest that and any that do should be reported and fired. It is certainly not my goal to keep members hooked so they'll keep paying. I LOVE seeing my lifetime members that are at goal and pay NOTHING to attend meetings! WW works because it's a lifestyle and NOT a diet. Yes, it's a business and you can't blame the company for wanting to protect the plan they've worked so hard to develop. I guess I'll get off my soap box now. WW works. If you weigh the cost of the program against the benefits, you'll discover it's quite a bargain. Wow!
